What does the Bible say about faith and baptism?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible teaches that true faith is a belief in God that results in baptism as a sign of salvation.

In Mark 16:16, the Lord Jesus states, 'He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.' This verse emphasizes that genuine faith is not merely intellectual assent but involves a deep conviction that leads to action, including the act of baptism as an outward sign of inward faith. True belief is complete, rooted in the mind, heart, and actions, confirming our allegiance to Christ. The act of baptism follows belief, signifying our identification with Him and the work of the Holy Spirit in us.
