His words hold more weight for me also, so I think it is a good way to be.

I already posted my scriptures, give me some that condemn it. Infants are sucklings.. but here in Luke the word infant is used. Look at it as a way parents are asking the Lord to touch their infant. Luke 18:15 And they brought unto him also infants, that he would touch them..... Not just...

I agree with most of this Jane. In a way at some church's it has become more a custom that they will do. I was not a member of the church I had my youngest baptized or christened whatever term was done. They did do it for me as my background and it was the same church just a different synod...

I used them as in dedication of the child to the Lord is all.. you are correct no baptizing was done with them.

Yes to me he was both.. I am not going to go into all that though. We will let it stand.

You see it with Hannah and even see a bit with Esther and Samson's mother... anyway am not going to go looking I seem to be the only person posting scripture... your turn.

Baptism served 2 purposes, it was parents wanting their child raised with knowledge of the Lord so they had godparents that were agreeing should anything happen to the parents the godparents to make sure of the training. So it was a witness to the church of the parents heart for training with...

For Jesus to even be able to teach in a synagogue wouldn't he have had to be orthodox? and wouldn't he have needed to be from the tribe of Levi? Just asking.

Mt 19:14 But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven. Mt 21:16 And said unto him, Hearest thou what these say? And Jesus saith unto them, Yea; have ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected...

Hi Tony, For me my thoughts regarding it and why it started was like the book of Numbers and the counting of the children of Israel. Chapter 3 I think they count the infants on up in their counts of the house of Israel. Baby baptism counts the child as being Christs and besides that no age is...

@Rita I forgot to tell you, I laughed, as one of the notables on my brothers ydna was Joseph Smith (Mormon) lol another was Daniel Boone haha We talked about that Smith name.

I found the 2% would be 4th great grandparent. Yes we are fearfully and wonderfully made. My brother still thinks he is gentile which is fine too.. I see in the old testament that even strangers and sojourners were able to choose a tribe to live in as long as they followed the laws. So you...

Now you are relating it to worship? Word, do I need to quote you all the scriptures out of the mouth of God regarding pedigree and numbering them and dividing them by tribes whom are all of Israel? Salvation is of the Jew so Messiah Jesus said... he also came for the lost sheep of Israel. I...

Matthew 9:35 And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people. This is mentioned twice about their synagogues... that is within the system to me.

If that is what you think fine, I just was not expecting a person even to be in this topic unless there was an interest and you have stated you are not interested, so lets leave it there.. God seemed to be interested and divided the people and numbered them when they came out of Egypt said how...

I agree but if God changes not, it was always within the system we didn't understand, know or see it within the system to me. Simplified to me with Mt 22:37:40. This was in the OT law, but we didn't have or know understanding of it.
