Protestant Reformed is a rather new church founded in 1924. They broke off from another church over the doctrine of common grace. They believe in the predestined elect over the concept of free will.

Q. 74. Are infants also to be baptized?

A. Yes: for since they, as well as the adult, are included in the covenant and church of God; and since redemption from sin by the blood of Christ, and the Holy Ghost, the author of faith, is promised to them no less than to the adult; they must therefore by baptism, as a sign of the covenant, be also admitted into the Christian church; and be distinguished from the children of unbelievers as was done in the old covenant or testament by circumcision, instead of which baptism is instituted in the new covenant.

Joel, there is every flavor of belief in the protestant churches. Been there. Don't like what this church doctrine says, go down the street.

What did your father do?
