I do believe in the necessity of water baptism as obedience to what the Bible teaches. Baptism is that first step a new born Christian tales in completely surrendering his all to the Lord.

Then I think we're pretty much in total agreement here!
Except one other thing........ I don't think we do baptism right. I think repentance and baptism are supposed to go together like hand in glove. I think we make too much separation between the two because it's pretty plain in scripture they're very very much linked together in regard to forgiveness and repentance.
