WHEN SHOULD YOU BE BAPTIZED

At what age should a person be baptised? Is it enough for a child to know the difference between right and wrong, or must the person first understand the gospel, recognise personal sin, repent and believe in Jesus Christ? In this teaching, Eminent Legacy examines the relationship between moral awareness, spiritual maturity and Christian baptism. Through passages such as Deuteronomy 1:39, Acts 2:37–41, Acts 8:12, Acts 8:35–38, Romans 10:9–10 and Deuteronomy 6, we explore what Scripture teaches about personal faith and readiness for baptism. We also consider the responsibility of parents and churches, whether there is a biblical minimum age for baptism, and why Christians hold different views about believer's baptism and infant baptism. Discover why baptism should not be determined by age alone, but should be approached with biblical understanding, genuine faith and a sincere response to Jesus Christ.
