But it's not certain. A person who is baptized might not actually come to faith. This is certainly as true for the Baptists as the Presbyterians, regardless of their attempt to screen the candidates. Now the Presby's will say, if you never come to faith, your baptism doesn't mean anything. So how does that prove the certainty of anything, especially since it's based on what I do later?
