is my daughter covered by the blood of Christ throught my faith?

Answer 1

No she is not. We are all responsible for our own lives. You can pray for her though.

God Bless!

Answer 2

Baptism is a mysterious thing, but it reminds us that God works through families. A child born into a covenant family is a part of that covenant. Baptism does not replace faith, so if you baptized your child, that does not mean your child doesn't have to have her own faith. Baptism is a sign and a seal, not the real thing that gets you to heaven. They are signs to assure us that we are in Christ. It points to Christ and the gospel. If you'll notice in the New Testament, entire households were baptized (and we can probably assume some of them had small children). In the Old Testament, God commanded circumcision, which marked his children as his own. Your daughter, born into a covenant family, baptized, is already assured of being part of God's family. Whether she accepts this family and personally accepts Jesus as her savior is between her and God. Let her grow in the faith and the Holy Spirit can work the rest, not you.

Answer 3

You do not state whether you are Catholic or Protestant. I will speak to you from the Protestant perspective as this is my persuasion. The blood of Jesus Christ extends to all children to the age of understanding. Jesus states "Let the little children come unto me". When children reach the age of understanding this status changes and they must determine their own fate by their understanding of the scriptures.

This is why it is so important to ground a child in the fundamentals of Christianity. Notice I did not state in a church or a religion, but in the fundamentals of Christianity. This is a belief in the power of Jesus Christ as savior of all the world and our intercessor before God.

So in essence it is not your faith that covers the child until the age of understanding it is the innocence of the child in their inability to understand. As they grow in knowledge and understanding it is still not your faith that covers them. Man has free will and they must make freely make the decision to believe or disbelieve. All are covered by the blood of Jesus but it is the individual's decision whether to accept that gift which is so freely given.

I hope this helps explain my beliefs some. God bless you as you search for the answers you seek. Look to the Bible as it provides excellent guidance.

Answer 4

pleading the blood of Christ over someone is declaring that they belong to Jesus. Its the name of Jesus that makes the enemy flee and the prayers of a righteous man(or woman) have power. The blood isnt gross, its awesome of Jesus who was the sacrifice for our sins because God didnt want all of us to die. A perfect holy sacrifice to cover all of our sins, so that God would not have to shed all of our blood. He loves us but hates sin. Just like you love your kids, but not some of the things they do. If you are asking if she will be covered by the blood of Jesus herself when she reaches the age of accountability, 8-12 ish she has to decide whether She wants to have Jesus as her savior or go the other way. She can always stop not believing and start to believe until Jesus comes back again. But we never know when that could be. Always better to beleive now. Always better to Ask Jesus now to forgive us for all of the times we mess up. And realize that we are not going to stop messing up overnight. Thats why the bible says that "God's mercy is new every day " cause most of us need new mercy every day. For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of god. Just believe mom and train her up in the way she should go. Then you've done your part. It's her choice to do hers.

Answer 5

No, a child is not saved through it's parents faith. You can claim her for Christ, encourage her to go to church with you and pray for her, but the choice to accept or reject Christ is hers and hers alone. Having a good example in you will make her path to faith much easier.

Answer 6

I'm not sure what you mean. Do you mean through baptism? if so, during baptism, the parents and all those present agree to raise the child in the Christian faith that you belong to. Then it is your job to do so. Most Christian churches then have a confirmation ceremony when the kids our teens. During this ceremony, the child confirms that he or she agrees with the religious faith that his or her parents have raised them in. Again, I'm not sure what you mean. If you are talking about a child of yours whom you feel has gone astray, pray that they come back. God loves all of his people, no matter where or what they are. your child is here on earth and going through whatever he or she is going through because God feels that is what they must do, possibly to learn some particular lesson.

Answer 7

Covering her in His blood helps her, but she is not saved unless she confessed HIM with her own tongue and allows Him into her heart. Keep praying. The effectual fervent prayers of the righteous avail much. ~ James 5:16... All things whatsoever you ask in prayer, believing them you will receive them. ~ Matthew 21:22. I'll join you that she accept Him and be saved. Peace, Sis.

Answer 8

How old is your daughter? If she is a baby or small child, she should be dedicated back to God. If she is old enough to understand accepting Jesus as her savior, then then the answer would be no.

Answer 9

I am not sure I understand what you are asking....but I believe that all innocents.....children, handicapped, any one who is not able to understand the word of God....is protected by the blood and will enter into the gates.

Answer 10

You crazy religious fanatics are something else. Covered by blood? Disgusting idea.

Answer 11

Nope. After the age of accountabiltiy she must decide herself. Set the example, pray always and let God do the rest. m
