Yes he undermines the paedobaptist belief in the necessity of infant baptism: a command not a suggestion. I didn't say that he wasn't a paedobaptist for that reason.
Perhaps you could help me by defining what you meant when you said "He said he sincerely believed that adult baptism was the practice in the first three centuries, and that was also in line with the New Testament."

If I misinterpreted this statement I made an error and I'll stand correction. If I didn't, then I think my original point stands.
