thanks for sharing!!

I would just like tto add that in the Methodist Church, infantile Baptisms are held during there during the normal service, and it is really wonderful because although there maybe upwards of a couple of hundred people, everybody is involved and partakes in the service. Although I'm only a few days away from my sixtieth birthday, the whole experience is so wonderful, so moving, that even when it happens on an almost regular basis, I stii get a little bit chiked up, because you really pray with all you've got for that child's upbringing in the church.

Isn't it great to be able to say that of them.

I believe you were baptised into Christ's death and resurrection and not 'the church' brother. Hallelujah.
Whatever, I accept the Lord Jesus Christ into my heart as my personal Guide and Saviour, and in Him, and Him only I place my total trust. He wiped the slate clean, but what a price to pay for my salvation - it makes me feel so humble when I think about it. In fact, it's made me go all quiet now.

But surely Frederick
there are vows made which are taken by unsaved people when an infant is Baptized, therefore how can they ever be carried out?

I know, I participated in this practise when my own children were babies and I was then unsaved.
I wasn't aware then, that it wasn't scriptural to do so.
That Baptizm is only intended for adults if we adhere to scripture.

I had my last son Dedicated although still not knowing this is a far better way, as it's giving thanks to God for the child's life.

I have already written my Baptism pages ago, it was absolutely marvelous.
All glory given to Jesus.

I presume the first time was as a baby?
As I don't think we are to be Baptised as adults, twice.
Although it's a wonderful experience, as being saved is also.

With Jesus in the boat, we can smile at the storm.
