But we believe that God knows what each and every one of us believes in his heart and don't need external signs for God to know who we are.

Then why are you baptized?

Baptism is adoption into the Church. We do not walk around with a cross branded on our forehead as an external sign of such acceptance. God knows if you are His in your heart.
