Thu - May 8, 2008DedicationThis Sunday we do our annual "Parent
Dedication." It used to be called "Baby Dedication" but that was a misnomer
since not all the children were babies and they were not old enough to
understand anything about dedication. That the New Testament church did not
teach or practice such a occasion is not troubling since it does not forbid it
either. However, we must be clear that in light of the silence of the Scripture
on the matter, it is purely an optional public commitment. What is not optional
is the responsibility of the parents to raise their children in the discipline
and instruction of the Lord (Ephesians 6:4).
