Although to be a disciple of Christ requires a dedication to the word of God and a change in heart, salvation is dependent on one thing. If you accept the Lord Jesus Christ as your personal Savior and confess with your heart and mouth you will receive salvation. Baptists also believe there is nothing that will separate you from your salvation. Living in your faith can be hard and there are many temptations that try to distract your from your service. Bless you in your quest.

∙ 12y agoI am a general baptist and we believe like all other evangelical Christians do. You have to be born-again to get into heaven. You can lose your salvation if you turn from God. The way to be saved is like ABC. A admit to God your a sinner and turn away from your sin, B believe that Jesus is the son of God and accept his gift of forgiveness, C confess your faith in Jesus as your savior and your Lord. And we don't believe you have to be baptized to get into heaven.

∙ 12y agoIn general, baptists believe that accepting Jesus as your personal Savior is the only requirement to be saved (to become a child of God and have eternal life starting now.) On the cross one of the thieves ask to be with Jesus in Paradise and was granted that with no further action or ceremony. This is where many baptists get the idea that asking is all that is necessary for salvation.
As a child of God though following Jesus in the act of baptism and dedication to spreading the Word is called for to demonstrate what has happened to you spiritually.
As to forgiveness for sins, you are already forgiven and all you have to do is accept this forgiveness.

What makes baptist faith different from the faith of assembly of god?
Main differences:Baptism of the Holy Spirit/Speaking in Tongues - Southern Baptist view is that Salvation brings baptism of the Holy Spirit and speaking in tongues has been done away with, Assembly of God view is that it is a special experience following salvation and the physical evidence of it is speaking in tongues(Biblical view: Baptism of the Holy Spirit occurs at salvation, but there are also baptisms for effective service. Speaking in an unknown tongue should only be done in private. Anything else would be considered new revelation and the scriptures are complete. There is a curse to those who would add to God's word.)Divine Healing - Southern Baptist view is that God will heal if it is His will. Assembly of God View is that healing is a privilege for Christians today.(Biblical View: Spiritual healing is granted for everyone who trusts Christ. Physical healing is granted by God if it is His will.)Charismatic - The worship style of a Southern Baptist Church seems to be more conservative than an Assembly of God church where you might see more shouting, jumping, dancing and hallelujah(Biblical View: Worship of all and any kind, but it must come from the heart and be done by those who are spiritually alive and walking in the truth - Let the rocks cry out)Salvation - Southern Baptist view is once saved, always saved. Assembly of God view is that you can lose your salvation.(Biblical View: Jesus has power to save. A child of God can never lose his/her salvation)
