You can see that baptism follows repentance.
You are saved by faith. You are baptized into Christ as you are born again. You become one spirit and benefit from His death, burial, and resurrection. The baptism signifies the death and burial (repentance) and the resurrection occurs when you are reborn. You become water baptized afterwards to fulfill righteousness. Sometimes this takes place much later, but I believe you experience problems when you wait. You are still saved by faith though, receiving His righteousness by faith.
