Does 1 Cor 15.1-4, Eph 1.13 teach that gpresdo must be water immersed baptized to be saved & HS sealed ?
Why should it...there are many other scriptures requiring baptism...start with Acts 2 38?
So you like Acts 2.38 ? Great :)
What about Acts 2.44-45
Have you sold EVERYTHING like ALL believers did then ? :)

Only water baptism?
There are 13 Bible baptisms - Question is: Which One is for Gentiles, Today, Under Grace?
Well, God Says, In This 7-Fold Spiritual Context, Paul to The Body Of Christ:
there is only one [ water ] baptism today, Otherwise:
God Only Has, Under Grace Today, , One [ Spiritual ] Baptism! Correct?
-------------
And, precious friend(s), Please Be Very Richly Encouraged and Edified
In The Lord Jesus Christ and In His Precious Word Of Truth, Rightly

The Bible: The BIG Picture
Amen.

Well, God Says, In This 7-Fold Spiritual Context, Paul to The Body Of Christ:
"Endeavouring to keep The Unity Of The Spirit in the bond of Peace. There is one body, and one Spirit,
even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; One Lord, one faith, One Baptism, One God and
Father of all, Who is above all, and through all, and in you all." (Ephesians 4:3-6 AV)
If your hermeneutics allows you to Change God's Spiritual Context To: 6 Spiritual + 1 physical [ water ], Thenthere is only one [ water ] baptism today, Otherwise:
God Only Has, Under Grace Today, , One [ Spiritual ] Baptism! Correct?

I only need Acts 2 38 to prove baptism is required. Nothing else. None of your list leads to the contrary.
I am waiting on scriptures that says baptism is not required as you suggest...where are they?
Says the person who claims they must WORK to EARN Heaven entry
Matt 25.43 and in prison, and ye visited me not.
Are you visiting strangers in prison as commanded by Christ ?
When you give the scripture that teaches baptism as a meritorious work, I'll take you seriously.
When you quote where Jesus VIA Paul teaches water immersion baptism as a requirement for Titus to enter Heaven then you will proven your point, till then keep flapping :)

if your doing it to earn salvation. Keep salvation. or in attempt to keep from losing salvation.
then yes
If your doing it because your saved and out of gratitude for God saving you. and wanting to share that knowledge and hope to others. then no

if your doing it to get saved, stay saved or keep from losing salvation
then yes.
Saying your obeying Gods command does not help
God commanded a jew to get circumcised.. Yet paul condemned them because they tried to add it to the gospel.
no different than you adding water baptism

acts 2: 38 requires one repent to be saved. then tells those who are saved to get baptized.

No.. And acts 2 does not say what you think it does.
You do not make a doctrine out of one verse.
if water baptism is required. every time the gospel is given, water baptism would be required.
You can not even show one saying it is required. so you the one who failed.
