This book offers a compelling look at the theological debate surrounding infant baptism, a practice that has been central to Christian thought and practice for centuries. Through a series of questions and answers, the author delves into biblical interpretations of God's covenant with Abraham, examining how these covenants, both old and new, relate to the inclusion of infants within the Christian community.
