Grandpa, tell me about the good old days. Was a promise really something people kept and not just something they would say? Did daddies really never go away? Did families really bow their heads to pray?
Psalms 132:12 - “If thy children will keep my covenant and my testimony that I shall teach them, their children shall also sit upon thy throne for evermore.” Matthew 19:19 - “Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.” Ephesians 6:1 - “Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right.” Proverbs 22:6 - “Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.”
Yes, times have changed, but God and His Word never changes. Grandparents, parents and children all have the responsibility and privilege to teach family and others to know and love God and His Word and to obey His commandments. God's Word is our authority ... NOT the worldview! It's never too late to fulfill your biblical role.
