A One Time Event! Baptized -
5
These Are Not “Over And Done With”! These Are Not One Time Events!
Hear Believe Repent Confess These Are Not “Over And Done With”! These Are Not One Time Events!
6
Hear Acts 2:37 – What needs to be heard? Why this response?
1 Corinthians 15:1-4 "died for our sins" Many refuse baptism because they fail to see the need to be!
7
Believe Not just believing thing heard is true.
Must believe Jesus is Lord. Lk. 6:46 Will not doubt or question His will. Hear lessons on faithful service but do nothing about it - nothing changes! Acts 27
8
Repentance A "change of mind and will".
Some baptized who haven't repented! Some even deny necessity of doing it! Example: Some guilty of adulterous marriages are being told it’s OK!
9
Confession This is a commitment. Acknowledging Him as Lord/Ruler.
Romans 10:9,10 1 Peter 3:15 (ASV) Galatians 2:20
10
Baptism Though many reject baptism, this may be the only one of the "five steps" some have obeyed. Being a Christian is more than just outwardly conforming to certain acts.

What Must I Do To Be Saved?
