Matthew 19.3 Eunuchs, Priests and Baptism

<p>Jesus gives us the teaching of priestly celibacy as foretold in Isaiah, those who have made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. So marriage and holy orders are know as the sacraments of social order. Jesus then refers to the children who he wishes to allow the Apostles to come to Him. Who brought the children to Jesus? We look ahead to Acts 8 and 10 and see that &quot;the whole household&quot; was baptised. Under the covenant with Abraham, male children were circumcised on the eighth day after birth. If such is so, why would God incarnate not wish the little ones to not be baptised into the new and everlasting covenant? </p>
