    What advantage is there to baptize a person who has not reached the age of accountability.

    Hi Ted. In 1 Corinthians 1:16, we read of Paul baptizing the household of Stephanas. Some use this verse to support infant or child baptism. Yet, we understand the core meaning of water baptism is that of identification with the act & merits of Christ's Sacrifice in the person's life.

    If a child is at the age of having no consciousness of error, sin or right & wrong, then Believer's Baptism has no value. Consecrating a child to the Lord would have more significance (as Hannah of old did with the child Samuel). This act would imply both a giving back to the Lord for His Will to be done in the child's life & also an affirmation by the parents before God to give all due care & godly training to this precious gift.

    It may be a covering of Faith, obedience, promise & conviction
