What is the role of baptism in confessing Christ?

Answered in 1 source

Baptism is an outward expression of an inward faith, signifying a believer's identification with Christ.

Baptism plays an important role in the life of a believer as it serves as a public confession of faith in Christ. In Matthew 28:19-20, Jesus commanded His followers to baptize as a demonstration of their faith. Baptism symbolizes the believer's union with Christ in His death and resurrection and fulfills the command of Christ to publicly acknowledge their faith. Thus, while baptism itself does not save, it is an important act of obedience that accompanies genuine faith.
