Several times we have discussed Acts 2:38. We looked at the original Greek and cited several translations. Each time it comes to the point of a preposition. Taking the entire Word of God into account to position yourself to say that baptism is a condition or requirement for salvation would cancel out God's free gift or grace.
Shall we set aside the grace of God; for if righteousness comes from our own good works or self-righteousness, then Christ dies in vain.

Nothing I have ever said cancels out God's grace or the free gift of salvation. That is your opinion, but it is not based in Scripture.
Acts 22:16 teaches that baptism washes away sin. Do you agree or disagree with that? If you disagree, please tell me what it does teach.
