I have been paedo now for like 3 months and was convinced based on all the NT evidence and the so close resemblance of circumcision, but like so many others i was looking at the sign instead of why a covenant sign was given in the first place. Now I realize thee reason. I know it has been obvious to the rest of you but it just hit me tonight(it probably took me this long since I came out of dispensationalism)
It is that we are Abraham's children so obviously we continue in administering the sign as it was commanded of Abraham!!!!
a sign of an everlasting covenant of promise made of God being the God to you and your children.....
and then both circumcision and baptism fit with Romans 2:25-28 wooooo!!!!
Oh and by the way, I am not trying to teach you guys anything, you already knew this, I just can't believe I was that slow, I must have read that point several times but it just never hit me lol.
