Just because the RCC imbues baptism with mystic properties does not invalidate the practice.

As long as people are not taught that water baptism saves a child, no problem.

But is is a ceremony that is not Biblical, so leadership must teach correctly.

I see more support by inference for infant baptism than I do for infant dedications in the NT. But I have never see either side say the ceremony was un-Biblical.

The ceremony is Biblical.

Christ's words, "Go therefore to all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit." Or is that missing from your Bible, too?
