Jesus told Nicodemus its necessary to be born again in water and in spirit. So yes you have to get baptize. The how let's just look for biblical examples ....in all of them the name of Jesus was mention for only in his name there is remission of sins.
According to the New Testament:The "how" is by full immersion in water, best pictured in Acts 8:38 --So he commanded the chariot to stand still. And both Philip and the eunuch went down into the water, and he baptized him. [NKJV]
The "why" is for a number of reasons:
For the remission (forgiveness) of sins, and to receive the "gift of the Holy Spirit" - Acts 2:38
To be "buried with Christ" in order to share in His resurrection - Romans 6:4; Colossians 2:12
But most importantly, because Jesus commanded it as a condition to receive salvation - Mark 16:15, 16
Roman Catholic AnswerNormally, in the Catholic Church, you go to a priest to be baptized. In an emergency - if someone is dying unbaptized, you pour water over their head at the same time pronouncing the words, "I baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit (Ghost)". You must be baptized to be saved, this is the normal way in which God has decreed we can be saved, and you can not receive any of the other sacraments unless you have been baptized first.
