I dont know why they say it but the Nicene Creed is just a manmade creed and if a Catholic wrote it, it would reflect what they believed at that time. You are not saved through baptism but through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. THEN you should be baptized. Infants cant make that decision. So, nearly all non-Catholic Christians profess the Nicene Creed, but they DON'T BELIEVE IT?
The Nicene Creed is VERY CLEAR that there is ONE Baptism for forgiveness of sin.

The baptism for sin takes place AFTER the person has declared Christ as his or her saviour. You are saved and then baptized. The act of baptism itself doesn’t save. Your putting your faith and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ is what saves you, wagglebee.
