Being baptized won't saved you. Baptism is just an act of obidience. There's more to it to be save. First, someone have to understand the nature of their sin . Then repent, and put their trust in Jesus.

This is why some churches "dedicate" infants. Later when they are old enough, they can decided to be baptized, learning about God along the way of course.
Also, I know several people who define their beliefs and faith by being baptized more than once.

According to Scripture, if that is as close as you ever got to God, then the answer is no. Baptism alone does not save a person.
Catholics believe it does, but then they believe a lot of things that are based on writings and so-called 'wisdom' outside of the Word of God and contrary to sound doctrine; praying to Mary and other false idols, purgatory, praying for the dead, the bread and the wine actually becoming the flesh and blood of Christ, and many, many more.
It's sad really, how satan has infiltrated that church, perverted it's leadership, and decieved millions of it's 'faithful' through it's false teachings. I pray for it all the time. We all should!
God bless...

IM sorry but I dont believe baptism actually "saves" anyone.
Its all about your relationship with Jesus Christ. Did that person have a real relationship with Christ? Then yes He/she is saved. So unless that person was a walking testimony of Christ,
Only God may know the answer to that question if they were saved or not.

No because you have to make the choice to come to Jesus and an infant is not capable of making such a choice. If you never made consciouse affirmation that you accepted Jesus as your savior you are not saved. You must make the choice in order to be saved, no one can do it for you.

depends on the lords judgement,it is like being 15 being told to accept jesus and be born again and then not live a christian lifestyle. most born again say to be baptised is all you need,either way leave to the lord.

No, in Christianity baptism does not guarantee salvation.

Yes, although you will have to pay for any bad you have done, and if you repent before dieing, GOD forgives all except sins to the HOLY SPIRIT.
