I am not brand new to the Reformed Faith but am definitely not seasoned yet. My wording may be elementary here...but...
Can someone explain to me why when speaking of covenantal continuance (??) circumcision is replaced by baptism and Passover by the Lord's Supper BUT only baptism transfers to children. This is a struggle our family is discussing at the moment. It seems that Paedobaptism should go hand in hand with Paedocommunion as Credobaptism goes hand in hand with Credocommunion. Children in the OT were not excluded from the passover meal but participants why does this same participation not apply to the Lord's Supper?
2nd question...is there a reformed denomination that holds to both paedo baptism and communion and the confessions, other than the CREC???
