Raising
Children
Withhold not
correction from the
child: for if thou
beatest him with the
rod, he shall not die.

Christians and non-Christians all across this
globe are trying to find a more up-to-date
method of raising children than simply follow-
ing the Word of God.
As parents, it all boils down to who we choose
to honor the most in our life. Do we honor and
love God more than honor and love our kids
or vice-versa?

It may sound bad to say that we should love
God more than our kids, but that is exactly what
we should be doing. If we love and honor God
most, then it will actually increase our love
for our children. Then our honor willbe in the
proper perspective.
Firm, proper, and consistent (consistency is
very imporlant) discipline shows God and your
children who is greater and means the most in
your life. Your kids will grow up in a home
with a living example of who should have first
place in their life.

When they grow up and leave home they will know that God should
be lifted up above all else in their lives. Please also read about Eli
the priest and his sons, Hophni and Phinehas, in 1 Samuel 2:12-36,
noting especially what is stated in the last part of verse 30. There
is no greater how-to book than the Bible.
