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.

• Explanations of key evidence used to support infant baptism, including household baptisms and covenant language
• Arguments that connect Old Testament circumcision to New Testament baptism
• Practical reflections on parental responsibilities and the church’s role in a child’s spiritual formation
• Considerations for congregations and families seeking to understand or engage with this practice

Ideal for readers exploring church history, biblical perspectives on baptism, and how covenant theology shapes family faith today.
