O fathers and mother, the ruin of your children or their salvation, will, under God, very much depend on you. -Spurgeon
Ephesians 6:4, And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.
What a joy is it to see your children following the Lord by themselves. No pressure. No prompting. No punishment for not serving. Friend, Christian service is best done when from the heart of the believer as they desire to serve the Lord. That is not to say that we, as parents, should not train our kids in doctrine and service. No friend, that is the best way for Christian parents to promote Christ; live it before them!
