Our choices tell on us and will have consequences!
In the case of a woman who calls herself a Christian and is allowing her unmarried daughter to fornicate in her home with a boyfriend, God has this to say.
In the case of a parent endorsing immorality in her own home, she is counted as a partner in her daughter's sin. She will have consequences she never thought she would have for helping others sin.
Also, even worse this mother is placing her daughter above God. She loves her daughter more than she loves God.
Luke 14:25-27 "
25Large crowds were now traveling with Jesus, and He turned and said to them, 26“If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters— yes, even his own life— he cannot be My disciple. 27And whoever does not carry his cross and follow Me cannot be My disciple.…"
When a person's children mean more to them than Christ does then it might be strong evidence that they are not born again and never have been.
I understand the mentality that allows sin in their own home when the chances of losing the daughter may be the result of standing for Christ.
However, if we love God with our whole heart we can never allow anything in our homes that defile God and endorses sin. We must take a strong stand against evil no matter where it is but especially in our own homes. Our home is our sanctuary away from the world.
Personally, I cannot understand a believer who allows the sin in her home, watching it go on every day and is not disturbed by it.
John 14:21
"Whoever has My commandments and keeps them is the one who loves Me. The one who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and reveal Myself to him."
