And the Answer is “Sure.”

“‘Myriads’ of Jews had believed. There had been three thousand on the first day alone, so obviously there had to be numerous meeting places for them. James refers to these assemblies of Christian Jews as synagogues. These same Christian Jews, we have established, continued to circumcise their sons, and were organized in a network of believing synagogues. It is significant that these synagogues are described later in the book of James as churches (Jas. 5:14) . . . Suppose a Jewish Christian father has just circumcised his son. Would that son have the same relation to the Christian synagogue of his father that a child of a modern baptist has to his father’s church? . . . Let us put this question another way. In the New Testament, were any infants legitimate members of any visible Christian covenant community?” (To a Thousand Generations, pp. 69-70).
