Parenting: The War We Can't Afford to Lose

Parenting: The War We Can't Afford to Lose

Jun 24, 2018

Passage: Ephesians 6:4

Series: Youth Sermons

Summary:

Parenting is not difficult because it is expensive. It's not difficult because it's time consuming. It's not difficult because it's distracting you from your personal goals. The real reason that child raising is so difficult -- the real challenge before us, and we as Christians know this -- can be boiled down to two battles. We need to understand these if we are going to love our children in a way that they are not angry with us. Instead, we must return that love if we are to bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord. If we're to do that, we must understand that the difficulty really comes on two levels: an external battle and an internal battle. The external is the Demonic Forces that influence society and the culture that is around us. The internal is the SIN NATURE that is within EVERY HUMAN on the planet. Until we understand these BATTLES, we will continue to lose the WAR.

Detail:

 

  • This is WAR: Ephesians 6:12
  • Tell me who your friends are and I will tell you who you are: 1 Corinthians 15:33
  • Live the Gospel. Teach the Gospel: Romans 5:8

 

And you, fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the training and admonition of the Lord.
