In sum: God has made a covenant with our children, those which are the children of promise. When they are infants, do we know which these are? Even when they are adults we may not know; we may not know till their dying breaths, and even then maybe not. In Glory we will know.
Steve, thank you. That is what I was hoping to hear. "Our children" really means, "the children of promise." God has not made a covenant with all children. His covenant is with elect children.

Daniel,

If your definition is the same as Steve's, then we are heartily in agreement.
