We can not know if baptism is essential or not as it may be essential one should get baptised maybe communion too though it could be only baptism is required but it is possible none are required though they may help confer grace to unite one to God to make one alive now but are not necessary for righteous living and doing the will of God and to bear fruit but they may allow one to be able to commune with God more to do works that are necessary to be united to God now and have life now but they were never required to be done or one would not ever be saved because I believe some are saved in the world to come. Only the blasphemy of the Spirit is not forgiven in age to come which is to reject what one absolutely knows Jesus will is for him because that is the work of the Holy Spirit to draw one to Jesus. You have to be open to searching the truth and following what one can know is the truth and God will for him. But the Holy Spirit is the one that helps one comprehend the truth
Others can still do all the works Jesus commanded to be done to be saved in the world to come
It is possible communion is a spiritual thing as I don’t think God will not allow one to be able to do the will of God if there is no man to help one do so regularly. But one should maybe do it incase it is required
God does not give the Spirit by measure one gets the Holy Spirit through belief but there is a divine work that is done in baptism to cleanse one of sin and unite one to God
That is why Jesus said you must be born of water and the Spirit to be saved
The Holy Spirit gives you understanding to follow Christ but one is not cleansed of his sins and united to God without either baptism of water or baptism of blood
Therefore if people are not baptised now they may be baptised by fire
God wanted people to obey the command of baptism and communion to be fully united to God and healed of their sins now maybe to allow others to know grace is a gift of God to further their belief in God though it may not be required still only God knows I believe one has the Holy Spirit without baptism but to be born of water is a grace also a work of the holy spirit and also imparts His gift but they go together one first receives the Holy Spirit through faith that is to be born of Spirit but one must be born of water too which provides extra gift of the Holy Spirit as communion may also and it is not to make one stop sinning or to be able to practice the commandments necessary to go to heaven which one can do without communion but in taking communion one is able to do more than is necessary for unity with God now but it is not necessary for one is judged based on what he is able to do God does not give the Spirit by measure does not mean that you don’t have more grace of the Spirit and understanding if you are baptized or have communion supposing communion confers grace but that God does not discriminate in giving the holy spirit to some more or less if they are chosen for God wants them to know and speak the full truth of God therefore if they do not they need to pay for all their sins in a place but as they did the will of God as they have the Holy Spirit they will be saved. I believe the Holy Spirit produces fruit and allows one to do all the will of God but maybe communion is also necessary to be alive now not just having the fruit that is being able to do the will of God but to be alive you are able to do more to bring yourself to complete communion with God in this world but as others still do the will of God but are not fully united with God now they can be saved later people should be striving for perfect communion with Christ in this world but you can do the will of God sufficiently without communion but I don’t know as it may be a spiritual thing only but as communion is a command people should be doing it anyway. It may be necessary to be saved upon death
