You will always be in falseness whenever you preach against obedience to Christ.
That is how you know when you are in falseness, when you preach against obedience to Christ, and are not yourself obeying.
When people brought the little children to Jesus, he did not tell the disciples to baptize them.
Water baptism is symbolic of having the sins you REPENTED of doing washed away.
Infants and little children cannot repent of sins.
I think that because all must have the chance to repent or reject Jesus. And, when Jesus died on the cross, he preached the gospel to the spirits in hell, so that they could live in their spirit according to God.
See 1 Peter 3:18-19; 1 Peter 4:5-6; and Romans 14:9.
Well you said if a person...
Matthew 27:3 Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,

It is a sin to add and subtract from the scriptures.
Baptism is my immersion, I proved it with scripture.
As for baptizing infants and children---the disciples tried to send them away and, Jesus placed his hands on them but did not tell the disciples to baptize them.
