In the Catholic Church, the godparents would say the promises for the baby. When the child grows up they will still be a Catholic.
I personally know of priest who knew that two RC’s (a married Catholic man and Catholic woman) who signed to be Godparents would, in actuality, not be the real Godparents, as these two agreed with two others that were married (the wife was Roman Catholic and the husband wasn’t) that they would be the real Godparents should the need arise.
The priest said that the ones who were married (one RC the other not) would not be acceptable to the RCC.
A relative of mine told the priest this was a sham.
....And when they grow up, confirmation renews the pledge first made at baptism.
Outside of the catholic church in Christianity this would nullify everything Paul, and others in the New Testament, wrote about confessing the Lord Jesus Christ....haven't seen too many babies that can confess much....other than just cry.
just because mom and dad say a prayer for you doesn't make you saved. You personally have to do this for yourself.
