morrison: Welcome to the Study Bible Forum! Your question is rather vague and can be answered more specifically with some more detail. However, yes a child can be baptised, but at what age? My wife was five and she is very positive to this day she knew what she was doing. If we are talking infant baptism, me being a Baptist I would say no to infant baptism. Just to add something more pretend a person was baptised, and down the road of life they don't feel they knew what they were doing at the time of their baptism. Should this person say to the pastor, I want to say I have surrendered to Christ at the age they are now, and want to be baptised, what do we do? We take the person and make sure they really know Christ and baptise them, it's just that simple. I hope this answer is helpful. justme |

Justme, Righto buddy. I don't baptise anyone until I know they got it right. Otherwise all that's happened is ya got wet, ya took a bath and your still not a disciple of Jesus. Took me 35 years to figure that one out. Our salvation is based on biblical standard not our own. In Him, lionheart |

Hoppy, Good day to you brother. When it comes down to it only God and the individual will know onehundred percent for sure about that. But if you've studied the bible with anyone in sharing your faith you know when someone is there (Acts 2:38,Romans 10:9,10) If you've gotten into that persons life you are gonna know. I think we both will agree that reaching out to the lost is more than a tract, a few scriptures and then a prayer,then into the water. In Him, lionheart |
