description In spiritual conversations with believers, the opinion is often expressed that there is no salvation without Baptism. Believers base this attitude on the words of the Lord Jesus Christ: “He who believes and is baptized shall be saved; and he who does not believe shall be condemned” (Mark 16:16), as well as the words: “Unless one is born of water and Spirit, he cannot enter the Kingdom of God” (John 3:5). The paper analyzes the foundation of such a point of view. Firstly, the words from the New Testament, as well as from the Holy Fathers’ literature, which highlight the importance of the Holy Sacrament of Baptism, are cited. But then another argument from the Holy Scriptures of the New Testament is presented, which testifies that the act of Baptism itself does not guarantee salvation. The most obvious example is Captain Cornelius who was filled with the Holy Spirit even though he had not yet been baptized. Also, we see that the repentant thief on the cross was saved even though he could not show acts of repentance. He was not baptized but he displayed sincere faith. In the conclusion, it is emphasized that the most important criterion for salvation is faith, and all according to the words of the Savior recorded by the Holy Apostle and Evangelist John: “Truly, truly, I say to you: He who heeds my word and believes in the One who sent me shall have eternal life, and not come to judgment, but has passed from death to life” (John 5:24).
