Short Baptism Article and a PCA position paper

I've commented on paedo (infant/child) baptism on other blogs, but haven't said much here.
So I'll start out with a link to Pilgrims & Parish, the weblog of Rev. Danny Hyde & the Oceanside United Reformed Church.

He summarizes William Perkins'(1558-1602) commentary on Galatians 3:26-28, in regards to infant baptism.
William Perkins on baptizing children of believers.

I would agree with most of this, but some of the points are minor.

The "Various Questions" portion reminded me of a position paper from the
PCA-
APPENDIX P
THE REPORT OF THE STUDY COMMITTEE ON QUESTIONS
RELATING TO THE VALIDITY OF CERTAIN BAPTISMS

This isn't specifically on paedo baptism, but there is a connection.

Check them out.
(For the record, I believe both paedo baptists and credo baptists can be Christians. Neither view relegates anybody to second class. We just disagree on some elements of baptism.)
