Disclaimer on today’s catechism question

It should be noted, folks, that the inclusion of the Daily Catechism doesn’t necessarily imply my endorsement or agreement with every question-and-answer. A prime example is today’s: question #74 from the Heidelberg (which asks and answers in the affirmative whether infants should be baptized). While I understand the reformed paedobaptist position, I believe that it’s mistaken, and that the only proper recipients of baptism are those who have professed faith in Christ.

(Note to my paedobaptist readers: no need to beat me up on this. I’ve still got love for ya. ;-) )

Leave no doubt, I still consider the catechisms to be reliable and useful summaries of the Christian faith, even if I don’t agree with every point. So . . . consider them disclaimed. :)

I guess you could call me a paedcreo baptist. Not sure what my take on this is, gone back and forth.
