The Power of The Gospel Series: Part Two
Every Scripture is God Given
Every Scripture is god-breathed (given by His Inspiration}and is profitable for instruction, for reproof and conviction of sin, for correction of error and discipline in obedience {and} for training in righteousness (in holy living, in conformity to God’s will in thought, purpose and action).
So that the man of God may be complete and proficient, well fitted and thoroughly equipped for every good work. II Timothy 3:16-17
Have you ever heard parent(s) when they have their first child say, I wish children came with instructions? Well, let me tell you what I know, the Holy Bible is what every parent should be studying to get the instruction on how to raise a child to be complete, proficient, well-fitted and thoroughly equipped to follow the plan and purpose that God has ordained for great success and long life.
The Bible teaches children to obey your parents in the Lord {as His representative}, for this is just and right. The Bible instructs children to honor (esteem and value as precious) your father and your mother; this is the first commandment with a promise [exodus 20:12}: that all may be well with you and that you may live long on the earth. {Ephesian 6:1-3}
The Bible teaches children to listen to your father, who begot you, and despise not your mother when she is old. In the Bible, children are instructed to obey your parents in everything, for this is pleasing in the sight of God. {Proverb 23:22}
The Bible instructs Fathers, do not provoke or irritate or fret your children {do not be hard on them or harass them}, lest they become discouraged and sullen and morose and feel inferior and frustrated. {Do not break their spirit}. {col. 3:21, Ephesian 6:4}.
Do you think God’s Word gives sufficient instructions for how to raise a child? Will instructing children, in the manner in which the Bible has given us, create a better society? Is it enough to depend on the word being taught in church, perhaps during Worship Services/Sunday School, in order to sufficiently train up a child? Meaning, should parents only rely on the pastors or deacons to teach their childre how to live holy? Or do you think parents have an obligation to teach also in the home, through instruction in the Scriptures AND by being a living example? Do you agree with the Scriptures in the way the Bible says a father is to treat his children? Should a parent be tender with a female child and hard on a male child to make him “tough? Is this idea biblical founded? I would love to hear your thoughts. You can reply directly to this blog or follow us on Facebook.
Father God, help us to understand that the Society in which we live will reflect the children that we raise. Help us to raise children that will admonish you God and be thoroughly equipped for every good work. In Jesus’ Awesome, unmatched name. Amen

Ok, I’m half joking but my point is sincere nonetheless. See, last year I watched as God stripped me of everything that was not His Will for my life. Whether it was people, occupations, or business partnerships, that was the year God took off everything not meant to be. But through it all, the biggest stripping was the internal work He did inside of me.
Romans 8:29-30, “For whom He fore knew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified.”
