Baptism in an outward expression of an inward change. (my definition) As far as infant baptism, it is only mans tradition as stated by kwikphilly Mar 16:16 “He who has believed and has been baptized shall be saved; but he who has disbelieved shall be condemned. According to this scripture, we first believe, then are baptised. Lk 2:39-43 tells the story of the 2 thieves The thief on the cross obviously wasn't baptized after he believed on Jesus, yet Jesus said he would be with Him in paradise. Jhn 3:36 “He who believes in the Son has eternal life; but he who does not obey the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him.”

Gen 3:22 And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever: Gen 3:23 Therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken. Gen 3:24 So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.

II Cor 10:5 We are destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ, Hope this helps
