A Scriptural Critique of Infant Baptism

by John MacArthur
 

OUTLINE:

1. Point number one, and this ought to end the argument: infant baptism is not in Scripture.

2. I don’t believe in infant baptism, because infant baptism is not Christian baptism.

3. Third point, why I reject infant baptism: it is not a replacement sign for the Abrahamic sign of circumcision.

4. I reject infant baptism, because infant baptism is not consistent with the nature of the church.

5. Infant baptism is not consistent with the gospel.
