But the FORM THAT SCRIPTURES DICTATES concerning baptism is that anyone baptized is supposed to be joined with Christ!

Romans 6:3-4
Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? We were buried therefore with him by baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life.

Galatians 3:27
For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

Colossians 2:12
having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through faith in the powerful working of God, who raised him from the dead.

1 Peter 3:21
Baptism, which corresponds to this, now saves you, not as a removal of dirt from the body but as an appeal to God for a good conscience, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, who has gone into heaven and is at the right hand of God, with angels, authorities, and powers having been subjected to him.

Every Scripture that relates to Baptism refers to sotereological terms. Only those who PROFESSES FAITH IN CHRIST ALONE and displays evidence of that confession should be the only ones allowed to be baptized. An infant can't do that!

It might be best to stick to Scriptures...
