“Household typically means household and not adults only.”
It could mean dogs too, under that broad interpretation.
It does not say a single human was baptized who did not entrust themselves to Christ alone for salvation.
It does not say a single child was baptized.
It does not say a single baby was baptized.
It does not say any family pets were baptized.
Surely, if you are claiming infant baptism is Scriptural, you must have something - anything - other than an invisible baby to put forth as proof??
The invisible cries of an invisible baby are a double argument from silence...
Colossians 2:11-12, baptism replaces circumcision. Infants were circumcised, why wouldn't they be baptized? Is baptism man's work or is it God's? Is faith man's work or a gift of God? Why would reason be needed for faith?
Not scripture, but Father Origen wrote in 240 A.D. "The church received a tradition from the apostles to give baptism to infants too."
Yep.
It doesn’t sy they baptized the dead people in their graves, either.
Infant baptism is completely unbiblical - unfortunately, lots of the midstream “protestants” have an infant baptism hangup as well.
Luths, Presbys, Angs, etc.... they never quite got around to finishing a Biblical Reformation.
They still have one foot in Rome and one foot.... wherever.
