Q&A: Infants born guilty of Adam's sin — paedo-baptism response creates unsolvable problems

A Biblical Analysis of Infant Baptism 01:00:19 – 01:00:49

A viewer asks whether original sin justifies baptizing infants.

The argument would be: infants are born guilty → if baptized, forgiven by Christ's grace. But this creates a dilemma: all unbaptized infants would be unsaved, while baptized infants are saved without any free will choice. Winger notes this raises more problems than it solves. An alternative is simply that infants are born guilty but are covered by the grace of Christ independently of baptism.
