I pose a question to you…If baptism is an absolute necessity, what do you say about Luke 23:40-42 where one of the other 2 crucified with Jesus recognized Jesus as his sole savior and repented, and jesus forgave him and said the thief will see him in heaven?

Hi I Am!!!, It is good that you agree that baptism is necessary as the first act of obedience for a believer. Your opinion seems to be that it is not necessary for salvation. I believe the gospel of Jesus Christ says otherwise and demonstrates that meaning in our handbook –

First let me say that I am new to this board, and glad that I was led here. I will eventually read thru this thread, but wow, thats a lot! And I will get to your reply to my post Nick, but for now, I pose a question to you…If baptism is an absolute necessity, what do you say about Luke 23:40-42 where one of the other 2 crucified with Jesus recognized Jesus as his sole savior and repented, and jesus forgave him and said the thief will see him in heaven?

Have a good one (ps: I dont have a lot of time right now, and I will be away for 3 weeks (getting married), but if you address something to me, I'll reply but might take time.)
