It actually depends on your perception or view towards the practice that can lead you to the kingdom of God. Most Christians do believe that without baptism you can't enter the kingdom of God, it actually depends on your doctrine. As for me it's a different case. I believe people will enter the kingdom of God only by God's mercy. I don't think we just have to stick to baptism alone before we can enter the kingdom of God. There are some very important things that has to be done which I have listed below as this may help us enter the kingdom of God because they are proven fact from the religious book of God.

The important tips required are

- Accept God has the only God over all deities and also believe the messenger of God. This means you have no right to worship any other being or deity or anything except God. You have to worship God alone and nothing else.

-Obey God's commandments. There are some certain rules and regulations or do's and don'ts which has been prescribed or ordered by God. The best way to live a meaningful life and attain God's kingdom is to obey those commandments.

- Always seek for forgiveness. As humans, we are not perfect and we can never be perfect because perfection only belongs to God. We tend to commit sins and some other bad atrocities which is disliked by God and the best way to stay clean is by seeking forgiveness and repenting. Don't ever be scared or shy to seek forgiveness no matter how deadly your sin may seem because God is oft forgiven and most merciful.

- Always do good. Our character matters a lot when it comes to attaining God pleasure. There are some people who are disbelievers as they never believe in God but their character is very good. Good character is an act which not be neglected because it is one of the basis or essence of religion and it also a key that can lead one to God's kingdom.

- Be between fear and hope. You have to be hopeful to attain God's kingdom with the mercy of God and you also have to be fearful about God's punishment. Don't loose hope in the mercy of God and always be fearful about God's punishment as this will help you live a balanced spiritual life.

In conclusion, there is more to attaining the kingdom of God other than baptism. Always ensure you follow the stated tips and most importantly be sincere with your act of worship towards God and keep doing good.
