“For God had made it clear to Abraham that ‘your offspring’ was not to be taken to mean ‘children after they have grown to years of discretion and have decided for themselves’, but specifically was defined as the eight-day-old infant.[24] The sign marks the recipient of the covenant promises. God’s promise embraces the parent and his child, and it is the obedience of the covenant parent to pass on and confer the sign to the child.”

Its concluding sentence affirms that the baptism of young children is in anywise to be retained as conformable to the mind of Christ in the matter. There is no suggestion that the baptism mentioned in the last sentence is any different from that which is defined at the beginning. Rather the inference would be that the subject is the same throughout, and that, doctrinally, the age of the candidate is a matter of indifference.”

“In both of these verses, the primary reason we can finish well is not because we possess some great skill. It is because God is able to protect us.”
