“This question turns on one point. We must decide whether the children of believers are to be treated the same way as they were in the Old Testament. So, we must determine whether the New Testament teaches a change on the status of believers’ children. Is there continuity or discontinuity on the inclusion of believers’ children into the new covenant, and thus new covenant signs and rites?”
Gregg Strawbridge, You and Your Household: The Biblical Case for Infant Baptism

“It is important to remember, however, that baptism is not merely a sign of God's grace-it is also a seal. Baptism does not simply signify what Christ has done, nor does it only demonstrate the parents' devotion.
Baptism is also God's own continuing, visible pledge to his church that he will fulfill his covenant promises to those who place their faith in him.”
Gregg Strawbridge, The Case for Covenantal Infant Baptism

“How could a converted Jew regard the new covenant as a better covenant, if now his children were to be excluded from God's dealings with his people, no longer receiving a sign of God's covenant promise?
If such were the case, Peter and later Paul would surely have had to face that question repeatedly. And yet it is never debated or even mentioned in the NewTestament. Peter and Paul are never called upon to answer the question: Do we baptize the infants of believing parents?
Why not? Because Acts 2:39 and other texts underscore that the. covenant is the polity or constitution of God's kingdom. It's the way he operates his church, in both the Old and New Testament eras.”
