Why Do We Baptize Babies?
Why would a church that doesn’t identify as “Presbyterian” or “Lutheran” choose to baptize babies? This practice often surprises visitors, but it is rooted in a rich understanding of biblical covenants. Baptism, much like circumcision in the Old Testament, serves as a sign and seal of a promise—a promise of relationship with God. In this article, we explore the deep theological significance behind infant baptism, its historical context, and why we believe it is a vital practice for believers and their children. Join us as we uncover the biblical foundations of this sacred tradition.
