There are plenty of scriptures that say baptism saves ( 1 peter 3: 20-21 , mark 16:16 ) baptism is where we encounter the blood of the lord ( spiritually ) through baptismal waters .

ACTS 2.38 Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized,every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Question 1 what does baptism have to do with forgiveness of sins? Acts 22.16 16And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord. Question 2. what does baptism have to do with washing away Sins? Romans 6.3 3Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? 4Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. 5For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: 6Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. 7For he that is dead is freed from sin. Question 3 how do you take part in any of this if baptism is optional? Mark 1616 He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned. Question 4 what does baptism have to do with saving? Gal 3.27 For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. Question 5. how do you put on Christ if baptism is optional and not needed for salvation? 1 Peter 3.21 21The 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: Question 6 what does baptism have to do with saving ? 1 Peter 3.18 20Which 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. 21The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us. Question 6. If Noah was saved by water and the like figure is water baptism then again what does baptism have to do with saving? You can ad that these don't need water but that would be your own interpretation in the Greek to be submerged to fully wet
