    Because when they were on the cross,the were still under the old law and in the old law baptism was performed for repentance, baptism wasn't necessary to get into heaven, and when Jesus said to go out and baptize FOR the forgiveness of your sins it changed. Plus its Jesus I'm pretty sure if he wants him to be in Paradise with him he will.
