As for households having been baptized in the Bible, it is interesting to note, that all who were baptized in these households were believers (Acts 10; 16:31-34). Unless babies were able to believe one can reasonably conclude that there were no infants in these households.
That makes no sense- Your claim is that we aren't
born sinners, we
become sinners... so we won't need Christ until we get to a certain age- that, pardon me, is ridiculous.
Either babies need to be saved from original sin- or none of us do.
I don't think y'all understand that none of us can be forgiven of our
own sins UNTIL and AFTER we have been forgiven
Adam's sin. IOW, be born again.
That was the whole problem with the Jews. They had what? Sacrifice for
their sin but yet, it never fully reconciled themselves to God... why? because the problem was not just
their sins but
Adam's sin that they had no sacrifice for.
Jesus came and diagnose the problem then solved it by being that sacrifice for
Adam's offense. and becuase He dies once, for all- no more need to keep sacrificing animals for
personal sin- Jesus sacrifice remits them as well.
Adam represented mankind and he sinned of our behalf. Jesus, the new Adam, represents mankind and offers himself up for us so we can begin again- ie, be born anew.
Back to the OP, I am pleased that Catholics view the Eucharist as a memorial feast and not as a sacrificial sacrament.
Catholics view it as both... it's a meal- but more so, it's a sacrifice. "the" sacrifice, the one and only sacrifice, once, for all.. not repeated but transcending time and space, it's presented to us as if we were actually there at the cross 2000 years ago.
This is the one and only sacrifice that remits our sins after we have been born again, baptized into this mystery.
All the baptize gather and offer the Mass to God for our sins and the worlds sins. The offering the gifts to God is our thanksgiving and from His alter in Heaven He sends down to us, the body and blood of Christ- the sacrifice that was offered for us.
