Brethren, I would like to hear your thoughts about the age at which you would expect a covenant child to go through catechism and make public profession of faith.
Now, I realize we cannot (and should not) force such a profession. However, we need to expect them to (profess) if and because they are baptized.
So the practical question is - when? Do you think it is wise to set an age limit (as a church), e.g. 10 or 12 years of age, by which you expect children to have gone through catechism and made profession of faith consequently?
