Let me ask you this again:
When a person repents and comes to Christ, that person is saved. The Bible says so.

Show me where the bible says that.,

Now this person decides to get baptized a week later and gets killed in the car on his way to the baptism service.......is that person going to hell because he/she was not baptized ?

All of these hypothetical questions.
If the intention was to get baptized, they are saved. Baptism is NT circumcision. Abraham was deemed righteous before circumcision, but do you think God woudl have deemed him so if He foreknew Abraham would refuse circumcision?
The bible says baptism is part of salvation. Baptism saves, Peter said in 1 Peter 3 and Jesus said belief and baptism effects salvation in Mark 16:16. Plain as day.
