As far as I know, all of the principle Protestant posters (a lot of alliteration from aspiring anchors... :) hold to a believer's baptism.

Not so fast, FK. All us Presbyterians/Reformed Protestants hold to the grace and comfort of infant baptism.

But since baptism is not a salvation issue, it does not bring too much consternation that you are off-track on this one. 8~)

All Reformed believers are in agreement that the act of baptism does not bring salvation; it is a sign and seal of our unmerited redemption by Christ's perfect and complete atonement for which we give eternal thanks.

Grace saves, and grace alone.

Now, now...you're forgetting us "Reformed Baptists".

Perhaps the Reformed Baptists are to the Presbyternians what the Roman Catholics are to the Orthodox. If that is so then you have my apologies. :O)

OOPS! Sorry, I didn't know that. But it's good to learn. I'm glad I said "as far as I know..." :)
