It is not the strength of our faith, but the perfection of Christ's sacrifice that saves!

CAN MEN BE SAVED BECAUSE THEY DID NOT HAVE TIME?
One of primary reasons given by men to prove that water baptism is not essential for salvation is, what if someone believed but died before they were baptized?
Does God give men a pass on meeting the requirements of salvation if they simply do not have time to comply?
1. If a man believes but dies before he can be baptized into Christ for the forgiveness of his, will he still be saved? I cannot find that exception in Scripture. (Mark 16:16, Acts 2:38, 1 Peter 3:21)
2. If a man was thinking about believing, but died before he had time to believe, would he still be saved? I cannot find that exception in Scripture. (Mark 16:16, John 8:24, John 3:16, Acts 16:30-34, Romans 10:9)
3. If a man was thinking about repenting , but died before he stopped, murdering, getting drunk, stealing, or before he stopped his homosexual relationship, or before he discontinued his lifestyle of fornication, would that person still be saved? I cannot find that exception in Scripture. (1 Corinthians 6:9-11, Galatians 5:20-21)
There is no record of men being saved because of their future good intentions.
I DID NOT HAVE TIME TO BE SAVED, BUT GOD WILL SAVED ME ANYWAY IS NOT A SCRIPTURAL CONCEPT.
