In the 1st article, FGP shows that the baptized, supposedly truly having faith, is invited to take part spiritually in the death of Christ and to live in a completely new way (Rom. 6:11, 4). Baptism relates to the Christian profession on earth, that is, the House of God, and not to the Body of Christ and its Head in heaven (1 Cor. 10:1-13). It is not the testimony of the baptized but the testimony of the baptism to the baptized.
In the 2nd article, JND shows why children can be baptized. The Christian profession includes children (1 Cor. 10:1-13), who are thus seen in the Christian home as relatively "holy" (1 Cor. 7:14).
