Thats the proof? Well good luck to you.
Go in peace and follow the Law of Moses.

Does being baptized in water save anyone?

However, many associate the baptizing and joining the Baptist Church as meaning they are saved right then and there and so the saying ONCE SAVED ALWAYS SAVED.
i believe if we are sincere in our belief in Christ Jesus, then Jesus promises to save us if we endure to the end. Yahshua (Jesus) said,
"Because lawlessness is increased, most people's love will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end, he will be saved. This gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come."
(Matthew 24:12-4 NASB)
It is by continuing in our faith to the end that allows salvation, then ONCE SAVED ALWAYS SAVED is true because YaH saves, not baptism in water.
HalleluYaH !!! Praise the LORD! Holy! Holy! Holy!

death sentence not life for them!
You are really jumping through hoops here to try and show anyone can be saved without
Jesus Christ. The issue is that all of ...[text shortened]... gs again that are not sinful, but if they sin, they are sinners and will be judged
accordingly.
The Peril of Falling Away
6 Therefore leaving the [a]elementary teaching about the [b]Christ, let us press on to [c]maturity, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God, 2 of instruction about washings and laying on of hands, and the resurrection of the dead and eternal judgment. 3 And this we will do, if God permits. 4 For in the case of those who have once been enlightened and have tasted of the heavenly gift and have been made partakers of the Holy Spirit, 5 and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, 6 and then have fallen away, it is impossible to renew them again to repentance, [d]since they again crucify to themselves the Son of God and put Him to open shame. 7 For ground that drinks the rain which often [e]falls on it and brings forth vegetation useful to those for whose sake it is also tilled, receives a blessing from God; 8 but if it yields thorns and thistles, it is worthless and close [f]to being cursed, and [g]it ends up being burned.
What is this speaking of ?

there are some that accept the teachings of Christ by their works although they dont know of Him.
We will have to wait and see which group finds favour with Christ.
