According to the Baptists, baptism is reserved only for believers who have professed faith in Jesus Christ. Other church bodies such as Lutherans and Presbyterians baptize the infants of believers as well as older new believers.

In this message, Dr. Sproul, who believes and teaches that the church should baptize infants, gives the case against infant baptism.
