That isn’t what I’m implying, that is what I am saying. Does the phrase conceived in sin, born into sin ring a bell?

This is the reason children are baptized, to be forgiven for original sin.

If a newborn is in dire straits it will be baptized ASAP for this reason.

Maybe God makes a distinction between in the womb and out; don’t know he hasn’t told me. But my understanding is that anyone who has not been forgiven spends eternity in hell.

You do understand “baptism” is a symbolic act...of repentance of your sins when you are of age to recognize your sin nature ?

It has nothing to do with your salvation. ..for by grace you are saved though faith and..not by works.

Baptism is an outward act when you became saved as a show of repentance...

You guestion my knowledge...?

-——This is the reason children are baptized, to be forgiven for original sin.-——

I also might add that baptism does not erase your sin...the precious blood of Christ does...

Again you question my knowlegde when you seem to be unaware of basic christian doctrines...

I await your response.....
