THE SCRIPTURAL ANSWER TO THE QUESTION,
"...what must I do to be saved?"
Each individual (or individuals) was told what to do in relation to where they were in reference to the plan of salvation. For example, Saul (Paul) was only told to be baptized because he already believed, repented, and acknowledged Jesus as the Christ.
