we have heard from men and women, let’s see what the Bible says about how we become “ in Christ”

Galatians 3:27

“for as many of you

as were BAPTIZED INTO CHRIST have put on Christ.”

Romans 6:3

“do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death?”

( we know at least two who didn’t know this )

finally 1 Corinthians 12:12-13

for just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ. for by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body - jews or greeks, slaves or free - and all were made to drink of one Spirit.

Let God be true and every man a liar.

...and once again you seem to show complete ignorance of what that baptism is exactly. It is the Holy Spirit baptizing the believer into the body of Christ. Spiritual baptism, just like Spiritual circumcision. But don’t let the truth stop you from proclaiming your understanding of God’s Word. You’re on a roll now. Straight downhill, but a still a roll.

So now you ought to see your error clearly ...

As I have given you the passage from Philippians that shows being "in Him" is by faith alone. And since it is impossible for an infant to excercise faith ... being "in Him" cannot be as a result of water baptism, ... which imples that the baptism mentioned in your passages CANNOT refer to water baptism.
