Very well done. I will add that is not only the reformers but the Roman Catholic and the eastern orthodox that have done infant baptism for 2000 years. The Bible says repent and be baptized , they are two separate things and don’t have to be done at exactly the same time. Baptism is a physical and spiritual cleanse of the body away from the curse, in preparation to receive the holy spirit which is in our body as a temple. The Holy Spirit presents a tention to be Christlike. Why would we deny this to out children. I have observed spiritual gifts in children that were baptized after they have chosen to make Christ their true Lord and King. And not in those who were not. For the Baptist to say that infant baptism is nothing and they cannot be saved, they need to read revelations 5,7, 9 and 11,

Romans Catholic church orthodox church was not baptism infant for 2000 years the Catholic church was starting in 500 AD and the early church didn't baptize infants there is no scripture in the Bible says that they baptism infants.. And water baptism doesn't saved anyone believed the gospel in 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 saved...If you want to go to heaven when you dead you have to go through this gospel in 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 given to Paul..If you are not trusting the gospel in 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 you are not saved and you are not a Christian either..

​@robertmarkiamonlyakjvbible3739 I would direct you to research Tertullian's book De Baptismo, written sometime around 160-225 A.D. He mentions that infant baptism was widespread in the church already. His view was that Christians should restrain from baptizing a child too early because they haven't gotten their egregious sins out of the way. It's a weird theology he holds to, but it is the first historical account of opposition to something that was widespread in the church in the 2nd-3rd centuries. Not to change your mind on Baptism, just some historical context on the debate.

Baptism is the new circumcision and infants should be baptized to bring them under Christ by the faith of the parents. The church fathers baptized infants and they were taught so by the disciples. When people were concerted it stated they, and their Whole house we're baptized. Baptize your kids

So I'm a Roman Catholic. Personally I didn't necessarily like the setup of your theological perspective, even though I see where you're getting at and agree with the point. But I did appreciate the Ephesians 6 perspective. I think it's important to distinguish that all persons belong to God, but some are still ensnared or enslaved to the prince of this world and his dark kingdom. By Baptism, they don't belong anymore or less to God, they were always his, but their souls and spiritual conditions are delivered, set free, and transferred to God's Holy Kingdom of Light in the banner of the Cross and Christ Crucified and Risen!

Great video in many ways. However, I believe Ephesians was misinterpreted. The imperative and the indicative of the statement were confused. The only statement concerning the indicative was to declare that IF the children obeyed the imperative, it would go well with them in an antitypical fashion as it was typologically in the children of the Old Covenant. In short, the imperative is not only a command to obey the law, but to do so IN the Lord. Hopefully, this is helpful to anyone.

I found that churches who believe that baptism should not happen before personal faith do it for some the following reasons: -Acts 8:37 state that faith is a requirement for baptism. -They believe that babies are under grace (not under the Adam side as you suggested). - Infant baptism inevitably leads to sacremental salvation (Catholic heresey). - There is only one way to God given in the new testament and that is through personal faith in the completed work of Christ , and baptism(a work) should not become the counterfeit way. -All the baptism examples in the new testament show faith before baptism , where infant baptism require assumptions or typology to be applied.

If the Church allows the children of born-again believing parents not to be baptised as infants, and allowed to take baptism when they become born-again believers & then allowed to take part in Lord’s supper, what is the issue ? I myself from born Christian background was infant baptised, attended confirmation classes and then took part in Lord’s supper at my teens but not saved & was under the power & dominion of sin ! At the age of 42, I have been saved by His grace and being sanctified. So, before I was saved, I am sure, if I would have died, even though I was baptised as an infant and took Lord’s supper, I would be in hades/Sheol with the rich man ! Please clarify ! Because I was a born Christian in a Christian family and given infant baptism & participating in Lord’s supper after confirmation at my teen age, I was thinking that I am going to be in heaven when I die, but it was otherwise ! No one including my own parents & my spiritual parents told me that I have to be born-again. It was like a religious custom in the Church. Today, many in Churches think that they are Christians because they were born as Christians, baptised as infants & taking Lord’s supper after confirmation in their teens like I was, but they are deceived ! So, instead of teaching the children in their teens to be born-again & to take baptism on each individual will/ decision to follow Christ and then to participate in Lord’s supper, the Church do this as a ritual & many think they are Christian without being born-again like the foolish virgins in St. Matthew 25:1-13. Why do churches inculcate this ! What a deceit & lie of the devil today against The Word of God ! St. Matthew 28:18-20 !

Your experience is not to be solely related to being baptized as a child. Many adults are baptized, are accepted into the church, and take communion, BUT have never been saved. So, your personal experience does not disprove infant baptism anymore than Esau's rejection of God disproved infant circumcision. The fact that you realized your need of God at 42 speaks of God's faithfulness to His Covenant. He never gave up on you. Like the prodigal son, the rebellious child is still a part of the family even when he goes far away, but can only enjoy the intimate benefits of it, when he comes near to the Father. "Ye must be born again". Jesus told those words to someone who was already in covenant with him, circumcised and partaker of the Passover. The same is true for the NT church. God bless you.

I agree its important to understand Baptism as we see in Rom 9:4 , it is God's adoption,promises and a sign of God's Holy covanant people and is ..NOT.. circumcision of the heart. It's a blessing that 8 day old babies are included in God's covenant and promises in the old testament but their also had to be circumcision of the heart. Believers and their Children should also be included in God's promises in the NewTestament by Baptism.

The absence of that argument does seem rather glaring...at first. But we have to understand what Paul saw in the Judaizers’ argument. The problem to Paul was not simply that the Judaizers were demanding the wrong sign. If that was the problem, then the easy solution would be to correct the sign. However, the problem was much different in nature, and it struck at the very heart of the gospel. Paul wisely discerns that the Judaizers were attacking *justification.* If Paul would have simply told the Judaizers to switch signs, this would in no way have addressed the fundamental problem. Paul would have demonstrated an extreme *lack* of discernment and clarity. Fortunately, Paul understood the root issue, and knew he had to correct that. His priority was not at all the outward sign. His priority was the very good news itself. Judaizers: “You need to add circumcision in order to truly be justified...” Paul: “No no no...you need to add [baptism] in order to truly be justified...” Yeah, no. Paul never said this. Paul had found the true problem, and had addressed it.

Truth is truth, whether in the Bible or not. Answer me this; why does it have to be in the Bible in the first place? Part of the problem protestants have is they have a deep lack of knowledge on the history of the Church. In the early stages of Christianity, we were in more of an evangelical mode combatting the pagans. Once Christianity was legal, and the external threat of persecution died out, the tradition of infant baptism was practiced, for multiple reasons.

if infant baptism serves only to mark which side you are , and does not effectuate any efficacy in salvation and certainly does not preclude one from going to the side of satan, then the practice is simply symbolic and should be pronounced as such, rather than serve as a basis to denounce anabaptists in the present, and execute them in the past. In other words characterize it correctly. It is non-imperative to the faith. Miring it in rigamarole doesn't help Lutherans and the Reformed depart from their decline into a relic of the past.

The only problem is Paul could not have talked to babies. You can't tell a baby Godly concepts because he cannot understand them, so Paul was clearly having a dialogue with an infant that can understand what he's being told to do. A baby doesn't listen to his parents. He is forced to do whatever the parents want. There is no age limit put on baptism in the Bible, but Peter sais that baptism represents the confirmation of a clean conscience in front of God. So how can a baby confirm his clean conscience towards God in his heart when he can't even confirm into words that he just made a poop in his diaper? You had me until you jumped into the presumption that Paul talked to babies in his letter. God bless you, brother!

Children who repent of their sin and believe in the gospel of Jesus Christ must be baptized. If that’s what you mean, then I agree wholeheartedly. But the term children in Eph 6:1-3, seems to suggest two things: 1) the ability of children to hear the command to obey their parents; and 2) the ability to obey it. Infants are incapable of doing either one.

Infant baptism is not biblical. Jesus Christ started His preaching and baptised by John the baptist when He is 30 years old. Luke 3:23 And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli, One of the requirements of baptism is written in the book of acts Acts 8:36 And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized? 8:37 And Philip said, "If thou believest with all thine heart", thou mayest. "And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God." Acts 8:38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him.

I would say no because God showed mercy to all men in preaching the gospel to the dead. Since He shows no favoritism, it's safe to assume at some point everyone gets a chance. However, since He gets to do as He pleases and is never wrong in His decisions, seeing as also we are held accountable for our decision and in what we know, it would be important to treat every child as though this is their only chance.

This person is confused… In Ephesians 6: 1-3, how can infants obey and honor their parents. These are volitional acts that are impossible for infants and therefore using it as evidence of your position is ill-conceived. How are children of believers in Christ, on the right side of the line, when you yourself say at the end of the video that their not regenerate. They’re “born with a sin nature”, “Christ isn’t in their hearts” and “they don’t have the same connection their parents do”… so, if baptism is the outward symbol of an inner work (that you defended at the outset of the video), that infants have not believed, then it seems like you’re justification for this practice falls short. Even worse, you’ve contradicted your own position. I hope you’ll reconsider your opinion

It's amazing to me the theological gymnastics people have to go through in order to support a practice that has absolutely no biblical basis. BTW--infant baptism had NOTHING to do with the reformation. It's simply a holdover from Roman Catholicism. The anabaptists were reformed in their theology, and the 1689 London Baptist Confession is a reformed document. The pillars of the reformation are that we are saved by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone, according to Scripture alone, for the glory of God alone. God is sovereign over ALL who were CHOSEN from before the foundations of the earth. To say all babies are elect from birth is actually counter-reformed. Not only does it have no biblical support, it implies that those who are not saved as adults, lost the salvation they possessed at birth.

So, just some friendly pushback. The children of believers receive the promise of “I will be your God” when the are born but they don’t receive the promise of “I will pour out my spirit upon you” ? How do they received a partial covenant? And scripturally, why should I believe that the New covenant can be divided up into these two parts given to individuals at two separate times? It seems more likely that the new covenant is given to those who have faith, as you said in the video. The old covenant was corporate and national for the purpose of protecting the seed of the messiah and bringing for the Word of God. But the new covenant is not tied to a nation, nor a select group. It is an collection of individuals who have been placed into the body of Christ by faith. The infant receiving half the covenant does not make sense with the nature of the covenant nor is scripturally supported with examples of it or even allusions to it. The most evidence is the household baptisms but that doesn’t necessarily include infants.

The families Faith is enough and yes adult concerts to Christianity should repent and believe. At Pentecost The apostles and Peter are speaking to an audience of curious adult Jews and Gentiles, of course they’re going to tell them to repent. An adult convert to Judaism had to agree to submit to the Law in addition to being circumcised. Sacred Scripture never tells people to not baptize their infants, people had been circumcising their infants for millennia beforehand, without the babies ability to vocalize an agreement to the covenant they were entering. Sacraments aren’t something we do; they’re something God does to us. We don’t baptize ourselves. We get baptized. A baptized infant may or may not live the faith they were entered into, but the sacrament is still given and the seal still made. God is faithful regardless of our own faithfulness.

Thanks for your question and it's a good one. The answer is, no, there is no difference between the children and their destiny is certainly not different if they were to die. In the video I was making a statement about the 'logical conclusion' of where baptist theology must place the children, not where the children are in themselves. The children of both sets of parents are not different because God's promise to the children of believers is not based on baptism itself but on the righteousness that is by faith, just as it was for Abraham and his children. The promise came to Abraham and his children BEFORE he was circumcised (see Rom 4:11), which means the children received the promise of God even before they were circumcised. At the same time, by not baptizing their children, baptist parents are withholding something precious from their children and themselves - they are withholding the sign and seal of God's promise to their children.

@@proclaimingchrist8454 You are saying that baptism has no salvific effect on an infant. I agree. Why then baptise them? I think we certainly agree that baptism saved its recipients in the mission situation of the early church. The effect did not come from the water or the words that were possibly uttered. The effect came from the fact that baptism was obedience to the apostolic call and also the recognition or the confession of Jesus. Both are linked to salvation. “he that obeyeth not the Son shall not see life”. John 3:36. “ to whom ye present yourselves as servants unto obedience, his servants ye are whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?” Romans 6:16. “Every one therefore who shall confess me before men, him will I also confess before my Father” Matt. 10:32. You can have obedience and confession even if you have no baptism. So salvation is not necessarily dependant on baptism. But Bible does not say that salvation by faith alone. Only verse where word faith (pistis) and alone (monon) are together is James 2:24, which says that justification is not by faith alone. Baptism of believers and confession unite us to Christ. We are identified as followers of Jesus by them. I find no baby baptisms in the Bible. So I seem as useless. Nor do I see any promises regarding a baptised child. I think baptising babies may be misleading. As far I know church history baby baptism appeared near the year 200 in North Africa. Later some were mislead to think that babies must have inherited guilt because the church baptises them. But that is another story.

Hi Sam, this is a great question. I promised my wife I wouldn't spend too much time answering questions on KZfaq but this one deserves a reply. Think of covenant members in terms of Scriptural images like the vine and branches image in John 15 and the Olive tree and branches image in Romans 11. The branches on the vine/tree belong to God in a covenantal sense. Each individual branch is a covenant member and belongs to God in that sense (this doesn’t mean they have the Spirit by which they cry out Abba Father - see Romans 8:9). However, when a branch is grafted to a vine/tree there are two outcomes. Either the graft “takes” and there then exists a living union between the vine/tree and the branch grafted onto it. Or the graft does not take and there exists no true union between the branch and the vine/tree. For children growing up, they can either believe in Jesus Christ and then there is a living union between them and Christ by the power of the Spirit and they also begin to bear fruit. Or they do not believe in Jesus Christ and then there is no living union between them and Christ and they eventually die and are cut off. In that sense they are no longer God’s. However, this does not make their baptism meaningless if they are cut off. Baptism is about what God promises but at the same time it includes the threat of judgment if the children grow up and do not believe. The baptism has a message of judgment for those who refuse to believe just as Israel died in the desert because they refused to believe after their baptism (See Numbers 14/1 Cor 10/Hebrews 3&4). All those Israelites had the promise of God to enter the land but many failed to enter due to unbelief. Baptism is also not meaningless in those circumstances because if someone does initially reject God, they have broken the covenant but God’s promise to them still remains that if they repent and believe they will be brought back again because God is able to do that. Think of it like God being able to graft back into the olive tree the branches which were broken off due to unbelief (Romans 11:23)

_Why do Christians baptize?_ [Jesus] said to them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.” Mark 16:15-16 _Why do Christians baptize infants?_ Infants are included in “the whole creation.” _But we are only to baptize “whoever believes”! Can infants believe?_ Indeed, they can. John the Baptist had and demonstrated faith from his mother’s womb.“And of the Holy Spirit he shall be filled even from the womb of his mother. ... And it happened that as [Elizabeth] heard Mary’s greeting, the child leapt in her womb.” Luke 1:15, 41. A psalmist had faith from birth. “For You are my hope, O Lord GOD; You are my trust from my youth. I have *relied upon you from my birth;* You are He who took me out of my mother’s womb.” Psalm 71:5-6.Timothy had faith in the Gospel from infancy. “From infancy you have known the holy writings.” 2 Timothy 3:15.David had faith from birth. “You have made me to trust while on the breasts of my mother. I have relied on you since birth; from the time I came out of my mother’s womb you have been my God.” Psalm 22:9.David and Jesus do not find it incredible that nursing infants can praise God in faith. “And Jesus said to them, “Yes. Have you never read,‘ Out of the mouth of babies and nursing infants You have perfected praise’?” Matthew 21:16. _But surely those infants were special cases. How can infants believe today?_ Jesus commands us not to hinder those who wish to bring their infants to him. In fact, he calls them to himself, and says not that they are brought, but that they come to him. “Now they were bringing even infants to him that he might lay his hands on them and pray. And when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them. But Jesus called them to himself, saying, ‘Let the children come to me, and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God. Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it.’ And he took them in his arms and blessed them, laying his hands on them.” Mt 19:13; Lk 18:15-17; Mk 10:16 _But Jesus did not baptize the children. He put his hands on them and held them. Is that the same?_ “For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body.” 1 Corinthians 12:15. There is noway to be closer to Jesus than this! _But in addition to faith, the Bible nearly always connects baptism to repentance. Can children repent?_ No one can repent without the Holy Spirit. No one can have the Holy Spirit without repentance. “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit." Acts 2:38. No one can enter the Kingdom without repentance. "The Kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.” Mark 1:15. Yet children certainly can receive the Holy Spirit and enter the Kingdom, as shown above.

Good question. Christ is the sinless and the perfect Saviour. He was baptized because he identified himself with us, sinners. He did not commit any sin. He did all this on our behalf because He came as a substitute. Careful there are some false teaching that teaches Christ has to be baptized because he is a sinner. Nope, he is not a sinner rather he came to save sinner.

If infants are in the Covenant of Grace through baptism, then how can they be saved and not saved at the same time? Also, Ephesians 6:3, do you think Paul was talking to a toddler? Do you seriously think Paul was telling a 1 year old - to obey their parents in the Lord? I'm sure that if the toddler was able to understand "obey your parents in the Lord", this toddler is also able to understand "for by grace you have been saved through faith (ephesians 2:8-9).

The speaker in the video never said they were simultaneously "saved and not saved". He was simply saying that the bible categorizes children of believers on the side of God's visible people. That doesn't mean they are saved. It means they are just in the visible church (as opposed to the invisible church) The same way circumcision marked out Israel as being God's visible people. Many Israelites were not saved, but nevertheless they were part of God's visible people.

The clear Bible teaching is one walks by faith, not by sight. The faith of the parents of a dead girl raised her to life. Equally so, the faith of parents can also raise their child from being dead in sin. Which is why they baptize them. You make infant baptism solely an outward sign of something God did, but baptism is more than that, it’s a request for God to do something in a persons life. The order is irrelevant, God has no preference.

You misunderstand. "Children, obey your parents in the Lord." How old are the children Paul is addressing? They could be any age that can be called "child" while being old enough to understand Paul's command. Kindergartners can generally understand that verse in a basic sense. Does that mean that Paul was specifically addressing children ages 5-maturity who had "made a decision for Christ" and been baptized? It's possible, but it's a more clunky interpretation. The maker of the video seems to believe that Paul's words imply that children of believers are being brought up as members of the Christian community, the Church. If baptism is what brings you into the Church, well then, the logic flows. If not, then maybe that is where the real disagreement lies: what brings you into the Church?

Robert Hepple No need to. The command to administer the sign of the covenant to covenant children was never abrogated. And Matt. 28 clearly says to "disciplize" the nations by means of both baptizing and teaching. Since Jesus never re-defines what a disciple is, but only clarifies it, it is proper to regard our children as the young, maturing disciples in the faith they are-just as God had set up in the OT.

Sure, the book of Acts. When Peter preached his first sermon in Acts 2 he gave the abrahamic covenant promise. The original audience understood that in one way, that God is expanding the Abrahamic covenant to them their children, and the gentiles nations. The exclusion of children was never the issue, it was the inclusion of all the nations. We as gentiles now share in the covenant promises and the commonwealth of israel with all its implications.

You yourself said that Baptism pictures Faith (the transfer from Adam to Christ). But you then redefine what baptism is to fit your theology. To give a covenant sign to one who has not yet experienced that covenant is a dangerous error that misunderstands the beauty of what that sign represents. What does it mean to be in the church? -> it means to be united to Christ who is head of the body (eph 1:22-23). It follows then that if children are not united to Christ (aka do not have faith) they should not receive the sign of entrance to the church. It’s that simple! (And you admit that this indeed was the practice of the church in Acts) Ephesians is written to “the saints” (1:1) and there is nothing in Eph 6 that necessitates Paul’s address to all children without the prerequisite of faith. Covenant connections based on familial heritage are foreign to the NT and a redefinition of NT realities according to ethnic, theocratic Israel. “This means that it is not the children of the flesh who are the children of God, but the children of the promise are counted as offspring.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭9‬:‭8‬ ‭ “Know then that it is those of faith who are the sons of Abraham.” ‭‭Galatians‬ ‭3‬:‭7‬ ‭ I am a Reformed Baptist. I confess 2nd London and maintain all the beauty of the Reformed Tradition without this fatal flaw. I would encourage everyone to seek out that position and understand how it rightly seeks to understand Scripture and reform the church away from unbiblical practices such as infant baptism that were introduced by Catholicism.

Hi Ryan, thanks for your interaction with my video. Just a couple of notes: (1) To be clear, I did not say that baptism pictures faith. Rather, baptism pictures the transfer from Adam to Christ. That’s because baptism is a sign of being united with Christ in his death and resurrection (the thing that is signified). Those who believe receive the thing that is signified but those who do not believe receive merely the sign. One could think of this in terms of Israel’s baptism in the Red Sea (1 Cor 10). All of those covenant people who were baptized received the promise of entering the land of Canaan (including the children). However, those who did not believe did not receive the thing that was promised. Those who did believe the promise (men like Joshua and Caleb) did enter and received the thing that was promised. This is how we view the children of believers. They all have the promise of entering life. However, as they grow up they need to embrace the promise in faith and take care not to have an evil heart of unbelief and so fall short of entering God’s rest (See Heb 3 and 4). (2) I disagree with your statement regarding Ephesians 6. Paul addresses the children all the same. It would be awfully strange if he were only speaking to believing children. (3) You say in your comments, “Covenant connections based on familial heritage are foreign to the NT and a redefinition of NT realities according to ethnic, theocratic Israel.” However, I believe this misunderstands the nature of the OT covenants of promise and also attribute something to those OT covenants which Israel erroneously did to their own downfall. The way of salvation has always been by faith in the promise, both in the OT and the NT. Furthermore, the promise of the eternal inheritance came to Abraham’s children (think of Ishmael and Isaac) because of Abraham’s justification by faith (Romans 4:9-13). So many in Israel made the mistake of thinking that as long as they belonged to ethnic Israel they were okay. The reality was that although they were set apart as God’s covenant people, they still needed to respond to God’s covenant in the way Abraham their forefather did (faith). This is what the NT writers like Paul hammer home again and again.

Which baptism is a part of the salvation process, based on what the Bible says? What did Peter say below? Acts 11:15 And as I began to speak, the Holy Ghost fell on them, as on us at the beginning. Acts 11:16 Then remembered I the word of the Lord, how that he said, John indeed baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost. Based on Luke 3:16, and John 1:33, and Acts 11:15-16, the most important thing about the word "baptize" in the New Testament has nothing to do with water. The Holy Spirit is the master teacher promised to New Covenant believers in Jeremiah 31:34, and John 14:26, and is found fulfilled in Ephesians 1:13, and 1 John 2:27. Unfortunately, many modern Christians see water when they read the word "baptize" in the text. Based on the above, what is the one baptism of our faith found in the passage below? How many times is the word "Spirit" found in the passage, and how many times is the word "water" found in the passage? Eph 4:1 I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, Eph 4:2 With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love; Eph 4:3 Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. Eph 4:4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; Eph 4:5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, “baptize” KJV Mat_3:11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire: Mar_1:4 John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins. Mar_1:8 I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost. Luk_3:16 John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire: Joh_1:26 John answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there standeth one among you, whom ye know not; Joh_1:33 And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost.

It's interesting to hear this, but I don't understand the logic. Even if children of believers are on the right-hand side of your diagram, that does not mean there should be a new kind of sacrament invented for them, which was not practised in the early Church. I don't find that logical or in line with Scripture's teachings. I found your use of Eph 6 as an attempt to justify a particular traditional practice unconvincing, to be honest. This is a genuine question - If children of 'reformed' parents grow up, hear the gospel and respond, wanting to become disciples, and they then ask their local church to be baptised as believing young people or adults, do reformed churches prohibit them from being baptised again, or do they welcome this and provide baptism by immersion (or some other method)? Thanks. Your video is helpful in trying to explain a tradition and how it's justified by those who practise it; but I am scratching my head a bit and am surprised by the explanation.

The video points out that we are all born under a curse of death because, we were born from a fallen man - Adam. The penalty for Adam's sin was death and this passed onto all flesh. The only way to resolve the penalty of death is to complete the sentence by dying. Unfortunately, waiting to die physically to resolve the death problem is too late, it must be resolved while we are still alive and before judgement day. How do we deal with being born under a curse of death separated from God? Well, that is why the Father sent his son to be the perfect spotless Lamb for the sacrifice for the curse, also known as the sin of the world, also known as DEATH. Yes folks, death is the curse of this planet and we MUST be converted from DEATH to LIFE. Jesus said we are to follow him through the door that he opened and we do this by death burial and resurrection which takes place in baptism. In the old testament this curse of death was covered by the high priest once a year but the curse was never removed. In the new testament the curse of death can be removed and we can be converted from death to LIFE. So, what happens when we are baptized? Romans 6:3 Paul explains the process, he said when we are baptized and under the water we are dead and Jesus is with us. This satisfies the death sentence now and we send it before to be judged and it doesn't follow us to judgement which would be terminal. Does God leave us in a state of death? NO. When we come out of the water we receive a gift from the Father, the seed of LIFE called Christ. This converts us from a death state to a state of being alive in Him. Unless you have the Holy Ghost in you, you are none of his and you have no life in you. You MUST be baptized into Jesus Christ to be saved. There is no other way to be saved - none! After we are converted from DEATH to LIFE we now have a relationship with the Father and the Son. We are in the body of Christ (dead and cursed people cannot enter his body nor will they enter God's kingdom). You also become the Church. You are the Elect. Your name is written in the book of LIFE. You are sons of God. You are a royal priesthood. You are a new creature in Christ. You cannot refuse baptism to babies, they must be converted asap. Removing the curse of death is mandatory and the sooner you do it the better. The babies will be marked by God by circumcision of heart. The curse is remitted at baptism as it states in Acts 2:38 called remission of sins. The curse is the only sin you cannot pray for to receive forgiveness - you must resolve the penalty of death - a death curse we are all born with. DO NOT live a life for Christ without removing the curse or all your efforts and good works will be in vain. You don't want to hear these words; depart from me for I never knew you. Baptism into Jesus Christ redeems you back into the Father for the Father is the giver of all LIFE. Receive the seed of the Father at your new birth and you will become the good seed and the children of the kingdom. Time is running out for salvation. SalvationJourney.com NOTE: Two baptized people do not produce a converted child. That child MUST be baptized and receive the seed of the Father as well. It doesn't even have to know or even confess - it's a sin you are born with and it must be removed. Everyone one of us must receive the family name of Jesus at our spiritual rebirth.

I feel this is making baptism into something it is not, “ By virtue of this covenant, God has promised to be their God.” Baptism and Salvation are closely tied although baptism is not the same as salvation nor does it pave the way for salvation it is merely and outward sign or professing of our being born again. We cannot make it into something else. It is almost as if you are saying that just because someone is a part of your family either by blood or law they are a part of the people belonging to God and thus can be conferred baptism?

As a believer is right and obedience baptism is done after we leave or have faith in Jesus Christ and it is an individual’s choice. If the parents stood up and did a dedication in front of the church that they were going to raise their child to know Jesus that’s a whole different thing they could change the baby baptism to that and then I would go to that church.
