The “form” of baptism is not central to the theme of my post. I believe baptism consists of immersion in water. I believe Scripture strongly supports this view. If you don’t, that’s fine by me. I’m willing to let God cast His judgment on the matter.
The point of my posting is to bring forth the erroneous and non-Scriptural dividing of faith and works. My study of baptism was simply the vehicle by which I reached an important truth.

Well this should clarify works.
Eph 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: [it is] the gift of God:
Eph 2:9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
Eph 2:10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
