Bible Question (short): Why should we dedicate our baby? |
Question (full): Why should my wife and I dedicate our baby? Background: We both grew up as children of "Church of God" (based in Cleveland, TN) ministers. We both have witnessed hundreds of baby dedications. This if the first time I have used a forum like this, so I am not sure if more background information is required or not. I am not looking for "we've always done it" type of answers. The only passage in the Bible that I am aware of that even closely relates to this is I Samuel 1-2. |
