Christ's burial and resurrection:
"Christ died for our sins... He was buried... and He rose again." -I Cor. 15:3-4

"For when you were baptized, you were buried with Christ, and in baptism you were also raised with Christ."  -Col. 2:12

It illustrates my new life as a Christian:
"When someone becomes a Christian he becomes a brand new person inside. The old life has passed away and a new life has begun!"  -2 Cor. 5:17

"By our baptism then, we were buried with Him and shared His death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead... so also we may live a new life!" -Rom. 6:4

Baptism doesn't make you a believer - it shows that you already believe. Baptism does not "save" you, only your faith in Christ does that.  Baptism is like a wedding ring - it's the outward symbol of the commitment you make in your heart.

"For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith... it is the gift of God - not by works, so that no one can boast."  -Ephesians 2:8, 9
