Unlock the scriptural case for infant baptism and covenant continuity
A thoughtful, accessible defense of infant baptism that explains why families often include children in the church’s outward sign of faith. This edition presents a plain, argumentative path showing how household baptisms, the substitution of baptism for circumcision, and the covenant promises relate to welcoming children into the Christian community.
From the author’s prefacing notes to the practical implications for parents and churches, this work offers a clear, reasoned look at why infant baptism is considered a biblical and meaningful practice. It examines how baptism functions as a seal of the covenant and what that means for children, families, and church life today.
Ideal for readers exploring church history, biblical perspectives on baptism, and how covenant theology shapes family faith today.

The author also cites passages from the New Testament as evidence that baptism is not only for adults who are capable of making a creedal confession, but also for infants. This book elucidates on the historical basis for infant baptism in the Judeo-Christian tradition, and the theological significance of this act of declaring a child a member of the Christian community.
