LOL. As if.
That's really cute, the way your kids have you totally fooled. I hope.
------------------------------------------------- Would you like me to have them write directly to you? What’s your problem? — You have so lost touch with God that you don’t believe God can help young people remain pure? Your remarks only expose what we would consider your own disqualification to befriend our children.
We still have several children at home. We know where they are at all times. By the way, they love to be home with their brothers and sisters and parents. At this moment our young people are playing table games with each other. Our 15-year-old son is a serious biblical prophesy student, mastering the writings of the British Brethren and their prophesy journals written between 1890 and 1915.
We are missionaries. Our two married children are both Baptist Christian missionaries. They married the children of other missionaries; children with missionary intent in their hearts. One couple have been serving in Mongolia for years, and the newlyweds are preparing to return to Russia to plant churches. My daughter’s groom was raised under missionary parents in Russia from age 9 and is a graduate of Bible college. We ourselves were in the Russian Pacific Maritime Territory for 2 years ministering Chinese merchants there.
If you think that young people cannot be raised to love their parents and siblings . . . and the Lord Jesus, then you are the one who is duped. Sorry for you. WHAT? Are your children allowed to run the streets without your knowledge of their friends or whereabouts? WHAT? They wouldn’t rather be with their parents in the evenings and on weekends?
We know of scores and scores of families who have sound biblical families and who have watched their children to grow up to love the Lord Jesus and their homes. It is still possible, by the help and grace of God, to raise children pure to the marriage altar. And it REQUIRES the help and grace of God, in a world of people who have given up such standards of purity and are sarcastic with us about it too.
You don’t need pity, Sir, you need TRUTH . . . biblical TRUTH. By your words, I assume your family needs it too, and they are probably not getting it from you thus far.
