Bible Question (short): babies repentance |
Question (full): Emmaus you are right that there other opinion oppose you post "You write" Think of all the new Testament "whole households" that were baptized in Acts. Nowhere are children mentioned as being excluded. What is the likelihood that all these were childless households? See Acts 2:38-39;" You quoted this but not really give the right explanation to the one asking: you said that they dont exclude the children, but you know that little children dont know how to repent: Ac 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Ac 2:39 For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call. Peter start it with "repent" do you think little babies would know how to repent? I know catholics baptized 1 month old babies do you think they know how to repent? please show me in the scriptures that there are little babies, that repent and baptized by the aopostle.
