Scriptures may refer to sanctifying grace as "divine grace," "the grace of God," or simply "grace." It is often understood as the transformative power of God's love that enables individuals to grow in holiness and be united with God.

We baptize babies in the Catholic Church because we have always done so since the very first when the Bible records that adults got baptized "along with their whole household." Since the fall with our first parents, every single human being (saving Our Blessed Lord, and His Mother) have been born without sanctifying grace, with original sin. And Our Blessed Lord commanded that we bring the little children to Him and do not hinder them. Baptism wipes out original sin, and restores sanctifying grace allowing the child to grow in holiness. Circumcision in the old covenant was done on the eighth day, and this was a foreshadowing of baptism. Without baptism, a child can receive none of the other sacraments and is denied sanctifying grace; thus we incur a very serious obligation to baptize infants as soon as possible.The meaning and significance of Catholic Baptism has evolved over the centuries and its meaning has been controversial at times. Baptism, and hence the use of water, is symbolic in the Catholic Church to wash away original sin from the beautiful newborn infant as so many Catholics have always understood the ritual. Some now say it rather fills the spiritual vacuum called original sin.Baptism allows the child to receive sanctifying grace, gives the right to receive the other sacraments, makes the infant a member of the church and makes the child subject to Christ and his Church. Catholics believe it is necessary for salvation. It is an article of faith that anyone who dies in the state of original sin is excluded from heaven and parents who delay the baptism of their newborn commit a grave sin. However, that rule is modified in certain cases.
