You guys require full emersion in the mountain creek like those shampoo commercials?
Well so long as you aren’t one of those salt water apostates.

Traditional Christianity has had immersion, pouring and sprinkling. I think the rule was that it had to be water, and water that was moving. Not fond of sprinkling personally but it fit criteria of validity.

The Faith requirement for infants was by the parents or guardians Faith.

Like the Faith of the centurion healing the child, or the faith of the friends and family of the paralytic.

EOC never had pouring or sprinkling. The EOC, being the Greek church, knew how baptism was originally done in the scriptures and so kept that and that alone.

Show me one instance in Scripture where infants were baptized as non-believers. It isn't there. Show me one example of baptism by sprinkling. It isn't there. I don't care what man has done, I care what God says in His Word.
