Pastor Ted Christman takes up the question of baptizing children and young people in Baptist churches. Clearly, he strongly opposes the premature baptism practiced in many Baptist churches. He also argues for close examination of a young person’s confession of faith and life by discerning parents and elders. Moreover, he offers sound questions and principles for so doing. However, appealing to “the baptism of disciples alone” from the Great Commission, he also pleads for charity toward children and young people in accepting their good confession toward baptism – the same charity we must give to adults. And he practices charity in his argument toward those who may differ with him.
Pastor Fred A. Malone, Ph.D.
Ted Christman gives careful and pastoral examination of how the church should think about children, conversion, baptism, and membership. Flowing from sustained engagement with Scripture and pastoral experience, the argument presses the church to take seriously the reality of childhood faith while also guarding the integrity of the local church. The result is a thoughtful and searching work that challenges assumptions and calls for careful biblical reflection rather than inherited practice.
This book is especially useful for pastors, elders, and church members who want clarity on how covenant theology and church practice intersect in the life of young believers. It does not treat the subject abstractly but applies biblical principles to real questions faced in local church life.
