🌎 How do we raise children who love God, embrace biblical truth, and remain faithful to Jesus Christ in a world increasingly opposed to biblical values? Raising godly children has never been more challenging. Today's children are surrounded by powerful cultural influences, social media, secular philosophies, peer pressure, and messages that often contradict the Word of God. As Christian parents and grandparents, how can we protect their hearts, establish a lasting spiritual foundation, and prepare them to stand firm in their faith? In this Bible study, we examine the biblical responsibility and privilege of raising children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. Drawing from Scripture, we explore God's instructions to parents, the importance of a consistent Christian example, the dangers of worldly influences, and the necessity of teaching our children to discern truth from error. 📖 Key Scriptures include: - Deuteronomy 6:6–9 – Teaching God's Word diligently to our children. - Proverbs 22:6 – Training a child in the way he should go. - Proverbs 4:23 – Keeping the heart with all diligence. - Ephesians 6:4 – Bringing children up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. - Romans 12:2 – Not conforming to this world. - Psalm 78:4–7 – Passing the truth of God from one generation to the next. - Judges 2:10 – The sobering consequences when a generation fails to know the Lord. In this study, we consider: ✓ The biblical foundation for raising godly children. ✓ Why parents must be the primary spiritual influence in the home. ✓ How to guard children's hearts against worldly influences. ✓ The importance of biblical discipline, instruction, and godly example.

There are specific targets they want in place by 2030. Our guest today attended the 17th Conference of the Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity (COP17) in Armenia. But before that we'll discuss the blue wave that hit the nation. The Red/Green Alliance has intensified. Both the U.S. House and the U.S. Senate have flipped to Democratic Control.

VaultAI Summary: The exposition explains the theological basis of baptism as a sacrament instituted by Christ, serving as a sign and seal of the covenant of grace. It emphasizes that while water signifies the washing of regeneration and the blood of Christ, the inward grace is not tied to the moment of administration but requires personal faith in Jesus. The text highlights the biblical promise that God is a God to believers and their children, citing Genesis and Acts to support the inclusion of covenant children in the church. Parents are charged with the obligation to raise their children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord, ensuring they eventually make the sign true in their hearts. The service concludes with a call for the congregation to reflect on their own baptism, renewing their commitment to renounce the world and live for Christ.

Daniel 1:8 — Should Christians celebrate Halloween? Is church trunk-or-treat harmless? A Bible answer for parents from Daniel 1. This expository preaching message from Daniel 1 answers the question every Christian parent faces each October: should Christians celebrate Halloween? Pastor Fortunato doesn't hand you a list of rules. He walks you through what Babylon did to Daniel (took his home, his schooling, his food, and his name) and shows why "it's just candy" misses the point. The trouble was never the candy. The trouble is the table. If you've been asking whether a church trunk-or-treat is any different, whether it matters where Halloween started, or how to say no without being unkind or raising a legalist, this message was preached for you. It is a family integrated church sermon, so children and parents were in the room together. Daniel purposed in his heart before the table was ever set, and this message shows how to help your children do the same. This verse-by-verse KJV sermon walks through Daniel 1, 2 Kings 18, and 1 Corinthians 10, explaining: - Why Babylon always starts with the young, and wants the best of them - Why Babylon took the holy vessels and what that says about trunk-or-treat - Why it doesn't matter where a thing started, only what is burning in front of it (Hezekiah and Nehushtan) - Why Babylon gives new names, and what children say when they answer the door in costume - What "the idol is nothing" actually means in 1 Corinthians 10, and why the table is still the table - How Daniel said no with kindness, courtesy, and care for the man in charge, without legalism - How to train children to pass up the king's table

This sermon examines the theological basis for infant baptism and the mode of water application by analyzing the household conversions of Lydia and the Philippian jailer in Acts 16. The central argument posits that the New Testament maintains the Old Testament covenant principle, where the sign of the covenant is applied to the believing head of the household and their dependents, rather than being restricted to individual professions of faith. The text argues that the Greek term for baptism does not exclusively require immersion, citing practical constraints in the biblical narratives and the theological symbolism of the Holy Spirit being poured out upon believers. The preacher emphasizes that baptism is a sign and seal of God's sovereign promises, not a means of regeneration, urging parents to raise covenant children in the nurture of the Lord and reminding all believers to distinguish the outward sign from the inward reality of faith in Christ.

This sermon defends the practice of infant baptism by establishing its theological continuity with Old Testament circumcision, arguing that both serve as signs of God's covenant with families. The speaker addresses common objections from Baptist perspectives by emphasizing that God works through households, citing examples like Noah and the Philippian jailer to show that grace extends to children based on the faith of a parent. By contrasting the Old and New Testaments, the message clarifies that baptism is a bloodless sign pointing to salvation by grace, not a work that saves, and that the covenant has expanded rather than been abolished. The sermon concludes with a pastoral charge to parents and grandparents, urging them to view baptism as a solemn vow to raise their children in the faith, prioritizing spiritual instruction and church attendance over secular activities.

How do you raise children who still want to be around you when they're grown? Kevin Swanson, Danny Craig, and Bill Roach start with 1 John 4. Your kids learn love from a father who has received God's love himself. The three of them admit where they've failed. Kevin spent far more time with his son than with his daughters. Bill played referee instead of listening. Danny catches himself treating his kids as an inconvenience to "the kingdom of Dad." They also talk about what helped: praying with each child, apologizing to their wives in front of the kids, staying close during the teen years, and Sunday night family talks. Questions?
