The word "christen" comes from English culture and isn't properly defined in the modern day. It obviously derives from the word "Christ", and means "to bring to Christ". It is usually used about infants rather than adults. A Christening does not ensure a child’s salvation. It is up to the child to decide whether or not to follow Jesus Christ, and no church service has the power to force a child to make a particular choice. The best way of ensuring that a child does become a follower of Jesus is to attend church regularly as a family and to surround the child with Godly mentors that will enable him to follow Christ. A Christening is a blessing… it is based on what Jesus did when children were brought to him: "he took the children in his arms, laid his hands on them, and blessed them" (Mark 10:13-16). It is all about receiving God's unconditional love and beginning the journey of learning about God, His Love, and His Son, Jesus.
