What does the Bible say about baptism as a confession?

Answered in 1 source

Baptism signifies a confession that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and acknowledges one's need for salvation through Him.

Baptism is fundamentally an act of confession, as outlined in Romans 6. It serves as a public declaration affirming that the individual believes Jesus Christ is the Son of God and recognizes their identity as a sinner in need of a Savior. In baptism, one confesses that they cannot save themselves and that their salvation is entirely dependent on Christ's redemptive work. By being baptized, a believer signifies their union with Christ's death, burial, and resurrection, thereby accepting the grace that flows from that union, as detailed in Romans 5:8-10.
