Bible Question:
We may dedicate (or baptize) babies, and maybe even very young children. However, if the parent(s) become a Christian and their child, let's say school age child, has not ... does the church FAIL to dedicate (or baptize) to the Lord? For me it would be important, because both the parent(s) and the church make the covenant to teach the child about Him as well as other things. This is other question we need to ask our leadership, too. Searcher |
Bible Answer: Hi Searcher56 As close as I can come in scripture, to the dedication of children to the Lord, would be. Samuel 1 Sam. 1:11-28, Samson Judges 13:1-25, John the Baptist 1 Luke 1:-80 These were all dedicated to the Lord, by their parents. In looking closely at these stories, they are VOWS taken by the parent for the child. Is that something that a parent of today is prepared for? All 3 women were barren, all 3 children were Nazarites. It also seems as though God innitiated the dedication in all 3 instances. Vintage68 |
