Bible Training Versus Political Correctness
August 17, 2016
The Bible says to train up a child in the way that he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it. Now today, that is not considered political correctness. They think you are interfering with a little child’s life.
Political correctness says, “Don’t spank the child. That is child abuse.” God’s Word says in Proverbs 22:15, “Foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child, but the rod of correction will drive it far from him.”
Political correctness today says, “Give your daughters birth control pills.” The Word of God says in Hebrews 13:4, “Marriage is honorable and the bed undefiled, but adulterers and whoremongers, God will judge.”
Political correctness says, “Let your children choose their own sexual preference.” But the Bible says in Leviticus 18:22, “Thou shalt not lie with mankind as with womankind. It is abomination.”
Political correctness says, “Let your schools teach sex education.” Parents, you must do what God would have you do, then God will move in and work in the child’s heart. Are you training your children? "

Front Porch Moments by Gayle Foster
WITH KEY INSIGHTS FROM HER FATHER, ADRIAN ROGERS
I try to unplug each morning with Jesus with just my rocking chair, my Bible, and a pen.
Having a secret place is very important because I know that Jesus is always there waiting for me. I know where I can find Him! His presence is everywhere, but there are places where it is so thick you can cut it with a knife. You may not even have a front porch, but there is a secret place for you as well. God’s invitations are for anyone who will respond. There is no more important request than the one found in Psalm 27:8: “My heart has heard You say, ‘Come and talk with Me.’ And my heart responds, ‘Lord, I am coming.’”
