In the case of children, the fundamental biblical position would be to have them being believing Christians to be baptized.
Let's remember that this issue is not one that is defined one way or the other in the fundamentals.
A Fundamentalist Christian is a born again believer in Lord Jesus Christ who:
- Maintains an immovable allegiance to the inerrant, infallible, and verbally Inspired Bible;
- Believes whatever the Bible says is so;
- Judges all things by the Bible, and is judged only by the Bible, aka - "Sola Scriptura";
- Affirms the foundational truths of the historic Christian Faith: a. The doctrine of the Trinity
b. The incarnation, virgin birth, substitutionary atonement, bodily resurrection, ascension into Heaven, and Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ
c. The new birth through regeneration of the Holy Spirit
d. The resurrection of saints to life eternal
e. The resurrection of the ungodly to final judgment and eternal death
f. The fellowship of the saints, who are the body of Christ;
- Practices fidelity to that faith, and endeavors to preach it to every creature;
- Exposes and separates from all ecclesiastical denial of that Faith, compromise with error, and apostasy from the Truth; and
- Earnestly contends for the Faith once delivered.
- Therefore, Fundamentalism is a militant orthodoxy with a soulwinning zeal. While Fundamentalists may differ on certain interpretations of Scripture, we join in unity of heart and common purpose for the defense of the Faith and the preaching of the Gospel, without compromise or division.
