When those on the day of Pentecost asked, “Men and brethren, what shall we do?”  Peter answered the question, “Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost”  (Acts 2:38).

After praying and fasting for three days, Saul of Tarsus was told, “And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord”  (Acts 22:16).

Peter wrote, “The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ”  (1 Peter 3:21).

You must be baptized for the remission of sins – Acts 2:38.

You must be baptized by immersion in water – Acts 8:38-39 “And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him. 39 And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip,  that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing.”
