We are saved by baptism because it is in baptism that we have died with Christ, clothed ourselves with Christ, and are sealed with the Spirit of Promise. Baptism saves because Jesus saves.
What if Jesus told you to wash in the pool of Siloam? This is what he told a blind man to do to receive his sight. Should the blind man have refused and said, "No, I'm just going to believe for my eyes to be opened."? Isn't faith washing in the pool of Siloam? Naaman, the leper, was told to dip 7 times in the Jordan, and he would be healed of his leprosy. He would have gone away thinking that the water in his hometown was better water... but his servant convinced him to go and dip in the Jordan, saying, "If the man of God told you to do something great, wouldn't you have done it? It much more simply to wash and be clean?" Faith was the dipping in the Jordan as the word of God was given to him. Can you imagine Naaman coming back and saying, "I dipped, as you said to do, but I wasn't healed." And the Prophet saying, "Well, that's because you didn't have enough faith!" No! That's absurd because if the man of God said it, it has to happen as the Nan of God said. So dipping 7 times was faith! It wasn't a measure of confidence that he had in the word. And it seemed he had very little. It was the strength of the word given. When Peter said, "Repent and be baptized for the forgiveness of sins and you shall receive the Holy Spirit..." And this was most certainly in water, just as the Ethiopian said."Here is much WATER..." They received the forgiveness of sins and the promised Holy Spirit. Why? Because they were washed, they were baptized. John baptized with water, but Jesus baptized with the Spirit. What is meant by this? It's not waterless! John's baptism was with only water; it didn't give the Holy Spirit. It didn't give the forgiveness of sins because it didn't have the word of promise given in those waters. Being baptized into Christ is having the word and promise of God given to you in the waters of baptism. His word of promise, His Name being put in you in baptism, gives you the forgiveness of sins and gives you the Holy Spirit. It is the word of promise to you that makes it a "Spirit baptism."" Jesus said, "My words are Spirit, and they are Life." It is His word that makes the waters a baptism, a being born of water and Spirit. Look at creation. The Spirit hovered over the waters. Look at Jesus' baptism, the Spirit decended as a dove and reminded on Him, and the Father spoke calling Him His Son (Right in those waters) that was a Spirit baptism We receive the Spirit being baptized into the Name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. In those waters, you died with the Son, given the Spirit and united with the Father in the Son. This is why Peter said, "Baptism now saves us."
@steverentfrow2415 I read a little, i was planning on reading it all, but then I came across your false teaching. Of repent and be baptized in water 💧 And then try to compare that with the eunuch. Tell me what verse your using.

We are not saved by water baptism.

Whoever believes and (IS) BAPTIZED,
IT'S INSTANT, THE MOMENT YOU BELIEVE.
