Scriptural baptism typically requires a person to have the capacity to understand and profess faith in Jesus Christ, which may vary by denomination. Many Christian traditions hold that children, especially those who are very young, may not yet possess the necessary understanding to make such a commitment. However, some denominations practice infant baptism, viewing it as a means of grace and inclusion in the faith community. Ultimately, the decision often depends on the specific beliefs and practices of the church involved.
