Who Should Be Baptized?

Circumcision of the flesh was a type and shadow of the circumcision of the heart. Circumcision of the flesh as a covenant sign was not translated to baptism, rather baptism is a covenant sign that one has had heart circumcision as promised in the new covenant!

A Christian family and good Christian church are the greatest means of grace unto hearing the Gospel and being saved. And on and on the promises of the new covenant flow to our children’s ears and enculturate our children’s lives! We tell our children to receive these promises by faith, just like Abraham received them, just like Moses, just like the Apostle Paul, just like all the saints old and new, just like their mommy and daddy received them, just like their Pastor and their friends or siblings who have joined the church membership... the promises are theirs to receive by faith!
