      There is one main argument against paedobaptism (infant baptism). And that is this: You don't have to do it. Nothing in Scripture mandates it, and there's not one example of it. Everyone must repent and be baptized. No one must baptize their children who have yet to repent.

      Yep, except the baptism of 'households', the fact that "I will be a God to you and your children", and the sacrament of baptism as NC circumcision. Oh, and most of the early church witness on the matter. Denial of paedobaptism is grossly reductionistic. ;)

      Don’t forget 40-41... :) save yourselves from this untoward generation and as many as received the word we’re baptized.

      Because its primarily talking about adult conversions from Judaism and Paganism. Given that the only baptism explicitly shown in the NT is of adults, why not assume baptism is only for adult converts?

      Because we are told who to Baptize. Those who repent and believe. I know you're Anglican, but it's crazy how my paedobaptist friends suddenly exegete differently only when it comes to the infant baptism tradition. Really, it's only for that...

      But they're only explicitly shown to be adults who repent and believe. And repenting and believing alone would seem to require cognitive faculties; which ought to logically rule out people who cannot exercise their faculties. 1/2

      I baptized my daughter at age 9. Those who repent and believe. We don't reject that an infant can be elect. We cannot know if they will repent and believe until they repent and believe. The problems are much deeper here, brother...

      I know that's your theology, but what I'm saying is that you're not getting that explicitly from the text; as Credos demand Paedobaptists do. We're both making inferences from the text, and your standard would rule out baptizing anyone who isn't explicitly shown to be.

      Your example doesn't work man. We are told to baptize those who repent and believe. Assumptions come into play when you turn the New into the Old just renewed, and forcing Old Covenant requirements for circumcision into New Covenant commands of Christ. #Inconsistency

          Honest question: If the scriptural basis for infant baptism is found in the “household baptism” passages, then what would preclude an unbelieving spouse from being baptized? I don’t intend this to be a “gotcha” question; I’ve never looked into it. But it does seem inconsistent?

          The infant won't reject it because he/she can't. This brings us right back to the presuppositions in ones view of the covenants to make a Biblical case/defense. These are the "deeper" issues I mentioned earlier. What does the Covenant Promise really provide?

          Yes. It's not sealed unless faith is the result. But then I ask this. Who is the child's Covenant head until they make a credible profession of faith? Is it Adam or Christ? If it could be Adam, then why baptize them? Romans 8:9 tells us who are His.

          Yes. So the infant who grows and proves to hate the Gospel was never really saved, baptism never really did anything, and proves to be what Hebrews calls an apostate. Again, I would argue that are presupps that flip the book or Hebrews on it's head...

          Thing is, Abraham is not Moses. And if we're told to limit Baptism to those who 'repent and believe', why baptize those that can not properly exercise their cognitive faculties? From the text only: go! ;)

          When studying P&R Covenant Theology (before studying Baptist CT), I used to think if the New is really just the Old renewed, they dont even do that consistently.
