There should be a change in a life if truly a true baptism takes place.
Ezra 7:23
Whatsoever is commanded by the God of heaven, let it be diligently done for the house of the God of heaven: for why should there be wrath against the realm of the king and his sons?
If baptism will take place, it must be done in a way God really recommend. It must be done in the house of God.
1 Timothy 3:15

Baptism should be done in the law of Christ.
