The great danger of this age, and one which brings much unhappiness to individuals and families, is an intense and increasing worldliness. The love and fear of God, reverence for his name, and thoughts of heavenly things, are banished through busy, anxious seeking for the things of the world. God has made his claims known, but men pay no heed to them. Religious principle becomes extinct in the family. Parents do not realize what obedience to God would do for their children, nor that their eternal interests are affected by the habits formed in this life; and they allow the little ones intrusted to their care to grow up without a knowledge of God or of the future life.
GOD'S INSTRUCTION
Notice God's instruction to parents: "Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it." (Proverbs 22:6)
HOPE
If you woke up today, it's not too late to repent and begin making efforts to save your young or adult children. God loves us and wants our families to have eternal life through Jesus Christ. Accept Him as your personal Lord and Savior today.
