To: one Lord one faith one baptism; metmom

An infant cannot be baptised because he is not aware.

Baptism is the acknowledgement of salvation; how can an infant acknowledge something of which he is not yet aware?

salvation is all of grace, your “awareness” adds nothing to it. thank you for your response, i’ll put you down in the baptist column and opposing Luther and Calvin ( both of whom thought they understood the Bible ) you do realize no one in Christendom believed what you said before the 16th century? you believe the Body of Christ, under the guidance and protection of the Holy Spirit, didn’t understand baptism for 1,500 years?

"Baptism is the acknowledgement of salvation;"

I'm sure you have Scriptural support for that, right?

Baptism is the acknowledgement of salvation

Where does it say that?
