I like your plan, you can't discuss the issues so you use a B@st@rd version of the Bible and the shotgun approach hoping something will stick.

Lets use the origninal Greek 1Pe 3:21 sw tbao tsakai tshmav aumav antitupon nun bkai bhmav swzei baptisma ou sarkov apoqesiv rupou alla suneidhsewv agaqhv eperwthma eiv qeon di anastasewv ihsou xristou

Yeah that pretty much settles it Baptism does save you.

That is the really great thing about those two semesters of Greek I had at the graduate level, while working on a Masters degree in Theology, it lets you spot errors in translation and logic.

Since I have proved you wrong in this translation we can assume that the rest of your post is just as wrong.

Thanks for playing I am certain that there are some lovely parting gifts for you.

Buh-Bye

Well then, from your two semesters of Greek we get the mechanical act of baptism is continuing to save us. Of course that contradicts what Peter says in 1 Peter 1:5, “Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time” but who needs to reconcile apparent contradictions when one has dogma.
