Heirs of the Covenant

Baptism symbolizes a new birth, through our union with Christ. It's our entrance into eternal life that this ceremony speaks of. We have shed our sinful natures and have taken upon ourselves his new nature. We have been rescued from sin and death, and now we live in Christ. But should believers baptize their children? Does the Bible teach that baptism and circumcision serve the same function? Are Jews and Gentiles obligated to the same laws? "Heirs of the Covenant" explores two fundamental concepts of the Bible -- the Abrahamic Covenant, and the shadow-to-reality switch from Old to New Testaments. These principles make the issue of baptism clear, and show parents whether they can count their children as heirs of the Covenant in Christ before conversion.
