“Unless we are careful over the young, there may be none to bear the Lord's banner when we sleep among the clods.
In matters of doctrine you will find orthodox congregations frequently change to heterodoxy in the course of 30 or 40 years, and that is because too often there has been no catechizing of the children in the essential doctrines of the gospel. For my part, I am more and more persuaded that the study of a good Scriptural Catechism is of infinite value to our children, and I shall see that it is reprinted as cheaply as possible for your use.
Even if the youngsters do not understand all the questions and answers in the Westminster Assembly's Catechism, yet, abiding in their memories, it will be of infinite service when the time of understanding comes, to have known those very excellent, wise and judicious definitions of the things of God. If we would maintain orthodoxy in our midst, and see good old Calvinistic Doctrines handed down from father to son, I think we must use this method of catechizing and endeavor with all our might to impregnate their minds with the things of God.
It will be a blessing to them—the greatest of all blessings- a blessing in life and death, in time and eternity, the best of blessings God Himself can give.”
