Hi Pearl,
You want me to accept as fact an article from an unnamed author in "gotquestions.com" as evidence that infant baptism was not practiced by NT Christians? You want to ignore the historical writings of 1st, 2nd and 3rd century Christian writings that show opposite of your opinion?
You accept the teaching of an unnamed author. I accept
the teachings of the people who lived closer to the time of Christ.
Scripture mentions a
few cases of entire families being baptized. Logically there would have been
more than a few families being baptized during the NT times. Logically infants are part of "families" so
the odds are greater that infants where baptized. The 2,000 year old historical Christian writings that I rely on say infants were baptized. You rely on the 500 year old teaching that infants should not be baptized. You have your men from your church that you rely on. I have my men from my church that I rely on. We are not that much different.
I just rely on the men who lived closer to the time of Christ.
You allege that the teaching of The Church is fallible in many areas. How do YOU know which teachings are fallible? How can you be so sure that
the teaching you are promoting is infallible?
How can you say it is the teaching of God?
You linked an unattributed article from "gotquestions.com".
