Non-Christian Education Is Sin, Spiritual Child Abuse
American Vision ^ | Feb. 4, 2011 | John Lofton

Posted on 02/05/2011 5:41:53 AM PST by RJR_fan

To put a child through 15,000 hours of Godless, Christless, Holy Spiritless, no-Bible, non-Christian “education” (K through 12) is sin and ignores what has been said by many of the greatest teachers of the Reformed faith. A Godless “education” is not bringing children up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. Such an “education” is not “for the glory of God” (1 Corinthians 10:31) — or which we are commanded to do everything. ...

To render unto Caesar that which is God's, the hearts, souls, and eternal destinies of our children, is no longer a defensible thing for Christian parents to do.

Good morning, usual suspects! And a blessed morning, as we prepare to wait upon the King in His Court tomorrow! Here's a link to an article concerning what happens to parents who think it's kosher to raise their children in two incompatible religions simultaneously.

That link does no such thing. It points out the failure of the churches to serve the needs of the members who wind up leaving. The ones that stay point to well managed churches and good pastors as leading factors.

When I lived in Houston, a Jewish friend sent his daughter to a local Baptist high school instead of to a local public high school. He is not a JINO, but a very tradition minded conservative. What he noticed was:
His daughter did not feel threatened in the Christian environment,
the quality of the curriculum was far better and more challenging, and, finally,
she was amazed that she did not have to walk through a metal detector each morning.

It is possible to raise Christian children using the public schools, but it is so difficult! You have to counter teach the Godless things that they learn and teach them the Biblical way instead. Do parents and children have the time and energy to do that? Usually no.

It just easier to find a Christian school or homeschool so the faith can be integrated into their education. I have three children in Lutheran schools. They are not being sent conflicting messages by being taught one thing at church and another at school.

The destruction of education over the past few decades has given us adults who tolerate evil.

We live in an area full of Baptists...

My wife has been told at least 3 times by some of the fauxly rollers that she “doesn’t look Jewish” ( I guess her nose isn’t big enough maybe???)

Our daughter has been asked, “Why the Jews were so mean to Jesus” and told that hanukkah isn’t a real holiday by some of their kids.

On the other hand, where I grew up in Boston the Jews who went to their own schools usually kicked everyone else’s ass in the academic competitions where as the Catholic school kids, the male schools were full of punk kids who smoked, drank and beat people up and the female schools were slut factories....

No, what public education has done is exactly what it was intended to do: produce a people that are compliant sheep, unable to think for themselves, dependent on government. In the absence of people who can think for themselves, it's no surprise that depravity is able to flourish.

If you give your children to Caesar to be educated, don’t be surprised when they come home Romans.

Sorry those Christians insulted both your wife and daughter. That’s just not right.

“Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” Proverbs 22:6

Christian education is not optional for Christian parents.

Your generalized slurs do you no credit and certainly do not distinguish you from those you slur, no matter your faith or theirs. Perhaps another cup of coffee is needed...
