1 | Do all little ones believe? | Matt 18:6 | Robert Nicholson | 66970 | ||
Dear brother Cyclist: Your joyful attitude before the Lord is a blessing to all. As I was reading the posts on this subject I was reminded by brother Ray of the words of the Lord Jesus: "Luke 12:23, "For life is more than food, and the body than clothing. Consider the ravens, for they neither sow nor reap, and they have no sotreroom nor barn; and yet God/ feeds them; HOW MUCH MORE valuable you are than the birds."...v.27, "Consider the lilies, how they grow; they neither toil nor spin; but I tell you..." It is in these words we see the tender heart of our heavenly Father. He cares far more than we can comprehend and I believe that by faith we can leave our infant children in his care. It is clear in 2 Thess. 1:8 that the judgment of God is against those who obey not the gospel of Christ. When we consider young children and those who are not mentally competent I think that we must realize that they are individual souls which are precious in God's sight. In 2 Tim. 2:15 we read Paul's words to Timothy "That from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus" As parents we know our responsiblity is to follow the example of Timothy's mother and grandmother who taught him God's word which eventually resulted in his salvation. I won't side track too much. However, when such difficult discussions regarding judgment of people who fall into a so called gray area, I often think of the words of Abraham as he looked over Sodom and intercedes on their behalf: "shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?" Gen. 18:25b. Your brother in Christ Robert |
