He doesn't care whether the child is baptised or not. An antipaedobaptist does care. Quote:

Matthew, it is not my place to say when a child has reached the ability to understand the gospel. This much I do know, it is the gospel that saves. The gospel is taught, Christian principles modeled and the child exposed to the blessings of the church. I don't care whether the child was baptized or not. Salvation is not secured differently for either of them. When the time comes that they are able to understand the gospel and profess faith in Christ - praise God!
