Just as in the forward-looking baptism, those who rejected the counsel of God for their lives were lost. I agree with Mark 16. That is why it is called the believer's baptism. You believe so you get baptized, even a child can understand that. Future tense or past tense isn't the focal point here.
Salvation is the point here.
Even a child can understand that. Well, don't try spending any of your money before you get to the bank. So, we agree that one who believes is probably going to get baptized. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. Second, I am sure that a lot of people sincerely believed in Jesus as an established fact.
