298 - Does History Prove Infant Baptism?
from Christian Formation
In this episode, we take a closer look at the claim that church history overwhelmingly supports a paedobaptist view. We find that while it’s true that infant baptism became the predominant practice for many centuries, the historical picture isn’t quite so straightforward. What did Christians throughout history believe was happening in infant baptism? How did the earliest believers, those in the New Testament era and shortly after, understand infant baptism? Can historical evidence alone settle the baptism debate between paedobaptism and credobaptism? Join us as we explore these questions and key moments in church history to consider whether the historical argument can truly decide the debate.
