Is baptism sufficient for salvation? Why?

Answer 1

YES, it is.

Because in Baptism, ORIGINAL SIN was taken away from us.
It's the sin passed on to generations by Adam & Eve.
Through Baptism, we become not only Catholics, but
THE CHILDREN OF GOD.

Godspeed! :)

Answer 2

The Baptism ritual is sufficient action for the purpose of walking the intent to reach the promissory heirship of man in the original light of creation.

The merest of sincere faith and expectation will bring about the creation of such intent, (sometimes referred to as a baptism of fire, also known as karma). Self comprehension is a dubious task, hence the hero mythology and it's parrallel with the tests of Jesus in the wilderness.

The religious dramas which have ensconced validity to the path of liberating enlightenment represent the securing of 'salvation' in the annals of man, reflected by Christian beliefs.
This equates to an encompassing perimeter of probable states in the free will choice of the participants in religious drama worlds, to utilise the congruent degrees of validity for said purpose, sometimes alternately referred to as transfiguration.

So is baptism sufficient....? yes, if you're prepared to engage in what baptism is.

Answer 3

For children the answer is yes, but for adults, no. What more is required of an adult besides baptism for salvation? Two more things are required: (1) a Faith since “without Faith it is impossible to please God,” (Heb. 11, 6) and (2) affiliation with a Church. Outside the Church there is no salvation.

Answer 4

It is up to you, if you feel that baptism would help you achieve the level of enlightenment you're looking for, then by all means. But it is not a license to run rampant as if you have a free ticket to paradise.

Answer 5

It is unnecessary. We already have salvation by the fact that we were created by a perfect Creator.

The God of Christianity is a false God created by man, in his image, in order to control the masses through fear-based living.

The real God is the God Jesus came to teach us about, who is all-loving, merciful, forgiving. God does not possess petty human qualities such as anger, jealousy, revenge. How can a mere human offend that which is as great as God? I think that concept is the ultimate in human arrogance. God created perfect beings.

How could God create something imperfect? No, that just doesn't make any sense.

Answer 6

I think the word you mean is, 'necessary', rather than 'sufficient', don't you ? From that point, it is an outward sign or symbol of committment to Christ and that one is 'born again', (ie infant baptism is a symbol), and one is cleansed of past sins.

Answer 7

Baptism is the first step to salvation since by baptism we
have our sins cleansed. Jesus Christ gave us the example when He himself ordered St. John the Baptist to baptise him.
But the baptism that Jesus ordered His disciple to do is not
only with water but in the names of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. He emphasised that those that get this baptism will be saved. Now for those who were baptised when still babies they have to confirm their baptism and so
their beleif in Christ as God by the Confirmation in later years
and by the way they live. Baptism is not like having a ticket
and you can do what evil you want without your readiness
that you feel sad and confess to God and receive conciliation.
Now what those who never had the opportunity to be baptised because of their religion and cultural upbringing,
they still feel in their conscience what is good and bad. If they
live to a good standard even with this natural law of doing good, God will surely in His justice accept them also since
it wasn't their fault that they weren't baptised. Baptised or not
all have the liberty and "real liberty is to do good".
