Are Baptists Going to Hell? Part 2

Hello,

Mark wrote:
"He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned."     Mark 16:16

"He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; ... ."  is this truth or a lie? Does the second clause negate the first clause in this verse? Or is the problem the first clause doesn't fit your theology?

Peter wrote:
"Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water. 21  The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:"                                      1 Peter 3:20-21   
 
"... baptism doth also now save us ... ."  is this truth or a lie?   Baptism does also now save us!

Paul spoke:
"And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord."                                        Acts 22:16
