Children who are well-grounded in God’s Word know about good and evil, about the Godly and the ungodly. Their faith will be challenged all their lives by the devil, the world and their own sinful flesh, but the Holy Spirit will help them keep the faith.
“Be faithful unto death and I will give you the crown of life,” God promises in Revelation 2:10, and He always keeps His promises.
I couldn’t agree more. I’ve raised four children this way. We never skirted these kinds of issues. I do, however, remember the day one of my kids who was old enough to know the “facts of life” wanted to know exactly how homosexuals had sex. I didn’t enjoy having to pass that information along.
“How Should You Explain the Same-Sex Marriage Debate to Your Children?”
God created Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve.
Uhhh . . . They wouldn’t even be around if their mother and I were on the other side of the debate?
That’s easy:
“There is good, and evil. There are people who claim to love others of the same gender, and they are evil. They will lie to you and try to tell you that there is nothing wrong with this. You will know some of them, and they will seem like good people, at least on the outside. God, though, does not approve- He called it an abomination, and these people define themselves by that abomination, and defy God. They may or may not claim to believe in Him- either way, they are lying to you and themselves. Have as little to do with them as you can, and you will be closer to God than they, and less likely to sucked into their evil. If you must have anything to do with them, be polite, and be civil. If they try to touch you, stick your knife in them and run, and call me.”
Marriage is the legal protection given to a biologically driven pairing between man and woman for the purpose of having children. The government trying to redefine marriage cannot change the biological reality.
It's also a chance to admonish learning God's Words and getting to know Jesus intimately since the sodomite agenda which the world is adopting (biblically prophesied) includes doing away with the Bible and eventually Christians.
If you call a donkeys tail a leg, how many legs does it have?
That works for me.
depends upon the age of the child.....age appropriate is always the first line of attack
Genesis 18&19 as a start.
I say we have some nasty people in government that we must remove or dilute (pack the court) by legal means.
I will inform them that most of America does not agree with what these nasty people in government have done. And we are going to change it by amending our Constitution.
Disgusting, Sickening and perverse
especially if they are told same in school and who told them same
There is no debate to explain.
Our grand children understand that human beings have a choice to follow God’s Word and live a moral/decent life or they can chose to be perverts.
So, there you have it: marriages come in two varieties -- normal marriages which are sanctioned by the US court system, and "mixed" marriages in which a man and a woman agree to form a union for purposes of breeding.
21st century. I'm not a fan.
“How Should You Explain the Same-Sex Marriage Debate to Your Children?” Sin is the transgression of the law 1 John 3:4
Placemark.
8 yr. old: What’s that about?
Me: The government letting two boys marry each other.
8 yr. old: Gross!
End of conversation.
Tell them that some people are mentally ill and think that men can marry men and women can marry women. Explain the complementary nature of natural marriage and they will see.
