But, but, but. God gets tired of hearing all the buts.
Look at what it takes to totally captivate kids... it is not rocket science. Get a production out there like Disney’s “Frozen” (not all that bad a story, a loose paraphrase of Hans Christian Andersen’s morality tale The Snow Queen) and the kids are glued on You Tube.
Can somebody PLEASE show that heaven can do everything that world can, and more. I’ve seen what contemporary Christendom puts out in the Christian book stores and it is lame, lame, lame! And that is not because of subject matter — that’s because all manner of delicacy is conflated with godliness. Do we dare dance for God so vigorously that, like David, our underpants can be seen?
Do that, and you won’t be able to stop kids from carrying the gospel around. And a new generation will be founded.
That is true-—gain the minds of the children and you own the future. Lenin knew that well, as did all the Wundtians, like John Dewey.
We can’t “trust” government ever to raise and “own” our children. That was the beginning of our destruction was the “public” schools and parents not understanding that they are the First Teachers.
There is always hope with God. But-—yes, it requires the Sword of Truth and a true Love of that Truth. Then, the children will learn to love it just by existing around it....if that is what they are exposed to.
