The Blessed Man Blessed With Children

1. 'Handling God's Word'

• Matthew 22:29-33.
  The Lord Jesus defended the doctrine of the resurrection through an implication rather than an implicit statement of Scripture. This principle is recognised in the Westminster Confession Chp 1, paragraph 6, and is of use when defending and asserting the doctrine of infant baptism. Seven grounds are here given by which we may deduce the doctrine from Scripture.

2. Baptism vows & administration.

3. 'The Blessed Man Blessed With Children'

• Psalm 128.

We learn here especially why children are an additional blessing to the blessed man.

1. The blessed man described, v1.
2. The blessed family man, v2-4.
3. The blessed family man among the blessed people, v5,6.
