Should Infants Be Baptized?

I think that even as most of my friends who believe in infant baptism would only admit believers to the Lord's table, and that doesn't undermine the fact that it's a gracious ordinance, a gracious sacrament just by the fact that we participate in it. It doesn't undermine the graciousness of God's promises held out to us in Christ in baptism for us to require faith. Our faith. That faith is a gift, as we know from Ephesians 2. But it doesn't undermine the graciousness of it to say, well, it is by faith that we're saved, and therefore, those who are baptized, we know from Romans 6, looks like there are those that have participated in this new life in Christ by faith. So those are the people, according to the Bible, who should be baptized, and not infants.
