It’s not scriptural and one cannot be born again unless they repent; ask for forgiveness of their sin n then receive what Christ Jesus has done for them on the cross. Baby baptism does not exist in the Bible

Do you not agree with Jn 3:5 or Mk 16:16 that Baptism is required for entering Heaven? Do you prevent the Children against the words of Christ in Mk 10:14? In Lk 18:15, people were bringing infants to Him! Protestantism makes baptism a "work" whereas it's all faith for Catholics

It never says to baptize babies. They dedicated them at the time circumcision. When you dedicate babies the parents are promising God that they will raise them for Him. Baptism is not what saves us. Repentance & acceptance of Christ finished work on the cross by faith saves us

This baptism that Peter is speaking about has nothing to do with water. This is the baptism into Christ which takes place at conversion. It is done by faith n has nothing to do with water baptism although the water baptism serves as a symbol. Romans 6:3-5

Clearly, Jesus finds water very important in His Sacrament if Baptism.

Of course but Jesus uses the word baptism in a few different ways all symbolic of His death, burial and resurrection and people dying to their flesh and living as a new creation in Christ.
