I never said that. What Jesus said is that "he that believeth and is baptized shall be saved."

Somehow they convinced you that baptism means water...It doesn't...It means immersion...

Baptism doesn't mean water...
Water doesn't mean baptism...
Washing doesn't mean water...

One good way to know that is,,,they are all spelled differently...

Is that a fact? Too bad you weren't in the chariot with the Ethiopian eunuch. You could've straightened out poor deluded Philip and kept the eunuch dry!

Of course if you had been there, he would've been on the road to hell instead of "on his way rejoicing."

Nobody says they have the same meaning, so your argument is a stupid one. However, baptism does involve water:

    Acts 8:36-39 And as they were going along the road they came to some water, and the eunuch said, “See, here is water! What prevents me from being baptized?” And he commanded the chariot to stop, and they both went down into the water, Philip and the eunuch, and he baptized him. And when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord carried Philip away, and the eunuch saw him no more, and went on his way rejoicing.
Who to believe, you or Scripture?
