You can’t raise a Christian. They have to decide for themselves. Just because you visited a garage once in a while does not make you a car.

I disagree most strongly, and your analogy is flawed.

If you are a Christian, you can and should train your children to be Christians. They may reject the Truth at some point but you, their father or mother, are absolutely required to teach it to them.

Visiting a garage, once, doesn't make you an auto mechanic. That comes with teaching and learning. Visiting a church once doesn't make you a Christian. That comes with teaching and learning.

Matthew 28:16-20 begins at home.
