Sin will have no power over you, because you aren’t under Law but under grace.
The power of sin leads to death, but if, in baptism, we have died with Jesus already, the sin's power has reached its zenith. So we have been moved beyond the power of sin when we believed Jesus to be Lord and the God raised him from the dead. The Law kills, but died in Jesus already! So (super)naturally, we are under grace. Praise be to the only Wise God, forever!!
1 Peter 3:21 CEB
Baptism is like that. It saves you now—not because it removes dirt from your body but because it is the mark of a good conscience toward God. Your salvation comes through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,
