When Are We to Be Baptized?
The most detailed example of baptism is found in Acts 8 where Philip told the eunuch about Christ:
"Then Philip began with that very passage of Scripture and told him the good news about Jesus. As they traveled along the road, they came to some water and the eunuch said, 'Look, here is water. Why shouldn't I be baptized?' Then both Philip and the eunuch went down into the water and Philip baptized him." (Acts 8:35-38)
Conclusion: There is no reason for delay. As soon as a person declares his belief in Christ, he can be baptized.
