What i am saying is that those who think all you have to do is believe are leaving out the rest. For example in Peters sermon he was asked "what MUST we do to be saved". His reply was NOT "you are already saved because now you believe in Jesus" which would give creedance to believe only. But his reply was "repent and be baptized". They already believed but were not saved. Wben they obeyed what they were told they MUST do then and only then were they saved. Peter was one of the 12 that walked with and talked with Jesus while be was on this earth. Ill believe him over any preacher who was not there at the time of Christ and has his own interpretation of the Holy Bible.
So was Jesus only partly right in what He said in John 3:16? Repentance is part of the believing. Baptism is the outward expression of an inward conversion. Like a wedding band is an outward expression of a marriage relationship.

Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death! - Patrick Henry
