To Be a Christian: The Anglican Catechism in a Year

Day 129. Why is it appropriate to baptize infants? (2024)


Listen Later

Today is day 129 and we are studying The Sacrament of Baptism.

129. Why is it appropriate to baptize infants?

Because it is a sign of God’s promise that they are embraced

in the covenant community of Christ’s Church. Those who
in faith and repentance present infants to be baptized vow to
raise them in the knowledge and fear of the Lord, with the
expectation that they will one day profess full Christian faith
as their own. (Deuteronomy 6:6–9; Proverbs 22:6; Mark 2:3–5;
Acts 2:39; 16:25–34)

We will conclude today with A Family Prayer for Children found on page 76 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
