John 3:5 And The Necessity Of Water Baptism To Salvation
John 3:5 reads “… Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.”Water baptism is the only thing of spiritual significance in the New Testament that involves water.So John 3:5 teaches that unless one is baptized in water, "he cannot enter into the kingdom of God” (go to heaven).
