Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it. Proverbs 22:6
Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it. Proverbs 22:6
The question is, in what way do we train our children to go? The answer for the believer is to train your children in the way of righteousness, teaching God's word and guiding them to the way of salvation in Jesus Christ.
If you don't train them, the devil will through the Liberal agenda of the spirit of "Anti-Christ!" I have told parents and grandparents for years, "Get in your child's business!" In other words find out what they are doing, who they are running around with and what they watch on TV, and the Internet! You can ask my daughter how it was, although we were far from perfect and she still managed to get in trouble from time to time but she turned out to be a great mom and grandmother! Praise God!
One day I was called to a couple's home to give them counsel concerning their daughter's behavior, so after church I dropped by and we sat down to discuss what what going on and they said they were afraid she was doing drugs. I asked them if they had searched her room and they looked at me in horror and said, "We are not allowed in her room and the door is locked!" I said, break it down and so we did and to their amazement the room was painted black with demonic posters on the wall and an altar in the corner where she was worshiping the devil! Like I said, "Get in their business!"
Foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child; the rod of correction will drive it far from him. (or her) Proverbs 22:15
