:::Finally, what is the something more baptism adds that the death of the creator of the universe just could not accomplish?:::

The Lord writing by the pen of Paul teaches that at baptism we are moved into the church, the congregation of saved.

Romans 6:3 Know ye not that so many of us that *were baptized into Jesus Christ* were baptized into his death.

Nowhere is it written that we are believed into Christ, that we are repented into Christ, that we are confessed into Christ.
Those who hold the position that faith alone saves are teaching that Christ (I suppose) saves people outside the church.
