SUNDAY SERMON - Pastor T. D. Eetsi
Returning to the Old Ways
People don't like to listen the truth but this Pastor makes it a point to reiterate his commitment to this truth, everytime he steps on the pulpit.
For a prevalent amount of time now in Christianity, there is a growing trend to compromise on the integrity of the word of God.
Leaders in the faith are accustomed to teaching things that are outside the jurisdiction of the word of God, and are drawing masses with their false doctrines.
Christians are also choosing to fellowship in churches that align with their personal philosophies which oppose the word of God.
Today we learnt from the Bible, the importance of going back to the ancient landmarks, which is key in producing people who have a heart for Godly living.
Parents were encouraged to be particularly responsible over the spiritual lives of their children as it caters well for every other aspect of their lives.
Children are at a very fragile age where the knowledge and teaching that they receive define their lives, and inform the trajectory that their future takes.
From a young age, they must be taught who God is, and to love and devote themselves to Him. It is only natural for them to remain in this faith even when they grow up instead of never having taught them anything at all.
Additionally, the best way to teach and train children to be like Jesus is to practice His ways as parents. What are the places you go to, the people you interact with, and the things you say (or don't say) because you're a Christian; your children are watching and learning silently.
Being a Christian is a declaration of surrender to the purpose and plan of God for your life. Thereafter, there is an intentional determination to not only acknowledge God but to relate with Him and fulfill the assignment He gave you. A good part of this is in discipling these young ones so that in the midst of a chaotic world with different kind of situations occuring, they are well aware of their stance as Christians.
Give Jesus to your children, dedicate time to studying scripture with them as well as praying for them too. Children can also be filled with the Holy Spirit and witness for God. And last but not least, find a church that embraces the word of God steadfastly, and raise Godly children who are unashamed of the gospel, love people and serve God always Amen.
