Question:
How old should you be to be in fellowship?
Answer:
The Bible does not give us any direct instruction on this point. Luke 2:41-52 tells about Jesus at the age of twelve, in the temple, listening to the teachers and asking questions, and also showing subjection to His parents. More important than age is whether the young person gives definite evidence of being saved, shows genuine interest in spiritual things, behaves responsibly at home, at meeting, and at school, and is obedient to his or her parents (Ephesians 6:1).
