Subject: Bible reference to infant baptism |
Bible Note: sonofmom, I am a very committed advocate of credo baptism (believer's baptism as opposed to infant baptism.) However, such a light dismissal of the view of infant baptism shows not only serious lack of understanding their arguements but also almost unavoidably contains a bit of ungracious disdain for its proponents, since it necessarily sees them as unable to grasp a simple truth which the rest of us grasp. Do you really believe they just decided to start baptizing infants because they ran out of adults? Did you listen to the debate which he posted before so lightly dismissing the idea? As stated, I am against infant baptism, but I do not think we do the discussion justice by so lightly dismissing it but rather show that we have yet to truly see the issues. Forgive me if this post sounds unkind. I do not mean to offend, but I sincerly want to encourage you to actually hear and understand why they believe what they do before assuming they are simpletons. In Christ, Beja |
