6 Train up a child in the way he should go,
And when he is old he will not depart from it.
There have been several high profle people who practice a lot of religions within their home. I think about how confused those children might be now or will me in the future or even worse how much more open they will be to the deceptions of the enemy. As I get opportunities to talk to young people considering marriage I always ask how they are going to handle religious issues. When they get married will the couple attend the same church. Are they as parents on one accord concerning their convictions? Are the parents prepared to stand up for their convictions when it involves close family members?
As parents or future parents it's so important to be on the same page in the home especially where God is concerned. Now I know that there are people who both married as sinners and now one gets Saved and the other does not. But when you have two Christians maybe from different backgrounds it's so important to be in agreement regarding the children. They are not just the future church they are the church NOW. Keep them strong and steady by being in agreement first with God and then with one another. We are charged to train them up right the first go around so when they are older and get married and have kids they will not depart from God and neither will their children and their childrens children and so on.
