Baptism is not a requirement. Recall the thief on the cross next to Christ wasn't baptized, didn't have communion or anything else. It was FAITH that saved him as well as anyone today. Faith and following Biblically teachings are all it takes. Baptism is nice but again certainly not a requirement.

Amen.

Water baptism is not a salvation issue but it is an obedience one, making a public declaration of one' faith.
