If baptism is necessary for salvation, why would Paul have said, "I am thankful that I did not baptize any of you except Crispus and Gaius" (1 Corinthians 1:14)? )?:

thats because he didnt, someone else did. what you think he was the only person in the world that had the authority to baptise?

Some denominations argue that baptism is necessary for salvation due to a misinterpretation of one or two verses of Scripture. See your pastor if you have a question about this. Overall, the Scriptures are very clear and consistent, baptism is not necessary for salvation.

so how would you interpet john 3:5? its clear, it tells me that baptism is very necessary. what more do you need?
