Belgic Confession, article 34 | Infant Baptism

Running time: 36:44

There is a minority in Christendom that argues that infants should not be baptized. This is odd and not biblical considering that baptism is a sign of the covenant of grace, which replaces circumcision, the sign of the covenant of grace in the Old Testament. Infants and children of believers have ALWAYS been included in the family of God. Why would the New Covenant, which is more inclusive, exclude infants and children from the covenant and its sign? It doesn’t. In this sermon you will understand why the infants and children of believers MUST be baptized according to the theology of the Bible.

Scripture Lesson: Colossians 2:6-15
