"Every member of the
church of Christ having children, is to bring them unto the
elders
before the church, who are to lay their hands
upon
them in the name of Jesus Christ,
and
bless them in his name."
Doctrine
& Covenants Sec 17:19
|
|
" But, behold, I say unto
you, that little children are redeemed from the
foundation
of the world, through mine
Only
Begotten; wherefore they can not sin, for power is not
given
unto Satan to tempt little children, until they
begin
to become accountable before me;"

& Covenants Sec 28:13a

Jesus
Blesses Little Children
"So
they brought their little children and sat them down upon the
ground
round about him, and Jesus stood in the midst; and
the
multitude gave way till they had all been brought unto him."
III
Nephi 8:13
"...And
he took their little children, one by one, and
blessed
them, and prayed unto the Father for them.
And
when he had done this he wept again, and he
spake
unto the multitude, and saith
unto
them, Behold your little ones. And as they looked to behold, they cast
their eyes towards heaven, and they saw
the
heavens open, and they saw angels descending out of
heaven
as it were, in the midst of fire; and
they
c ame down and encircled those
little
ones about; And they were
encircled
about with fire; and the angels did minister
unto
them, and the multitude did see and
hear,
and bear record; and they know that their record is true,
for
they all of them did see and
hear, every man for himself;"
