My QA: If I am saved by grace, what else need I do? based on John 1:14-17, is now available on my page for Misunderstood Scriptures. It is also available in Questions Answered for September 15, 2019.

"Let all things be done decently and in order" (1 Corinthians 14:40). No better example of this is found than Jesus' statement: "He who believes and is baptized will be saved" (Mark 16:16). Baptism is into Jesus' death. "Or do you not know that as many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death?" (Romans 6:3). Any salvation offered before baptism is without the blood of Jesus Christ on the cross. If not, why not? There is not one passage of Scripture where baptism and salvation/remission of sins are mentioned together that places salvation before baptism. If salvation comes to a sinner without being baptized into Jesus’ death in order to obtain remission of sins, then, as far as their “salvation” is concerned, “Christ died in vain” (Galatians 2:21). - December 6, 2021

In the New Testament, there is no record of a sinner being saved by prayer alone. When the church of Christ began, sinful Jews asked, “what shall we do?” Peter told them to, “Repent and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins” (Acts 2:38). The first Gentile sinner, Cornelius, was praying, but was told to send for Peter to tell him saving words (Acts 10:30; 11:14). Peter “commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord” (Acts 10:48). Saul of Tarsus saw Jesus, Who sent him into Damascus where he prayed, and was told to “be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on the name of the Lord” (Acts 22:16). None of them were told only to pray, claim their salvation, or join the church of their choice. This mini article and others is now available in Words of Wisdom Articles.
