Scripture of the Day - January 12, 2012

Deuteronomy 6:4 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:
5 And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
6 And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:
7 And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children...


Too many parents today don't have time to properly train their children and they expect the school system and the government to provide the training. All we have to do is look at what many of the young people are involved in to see that this way of thinking is damaging to the children and to society in general. The rates of crime, drug and alcohol abuse, bullying, swarming, and teen suicide are climbing. This is a direct result of parents not having time for their children and therefore not teaching and training them properly.
The Bible says to train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it. (Pr 22:6)
Folks, we need to teach our children God's ways because it's the only way they are going to be able to counter the ways of this world.

Here is a very powerful 4 minute blurb. You don't want to miss this. Don't bother reading the comments, some are pretty crude.
