The devil is the father of lies. He uses lies and distortions more than any other tactic to destroy relationships.
The second most used form of destruction is withholding of information. If everyone in a relationship will be allowed all their thoughts and in honesty, then problems can be resolved, but pride refuses and confuses things for no other reason than to win.
When winning is not the goal, only finding truth to resolves a problem, then relationships can be restored.
The devil is building monstrous pride in people preventing resolutions while continuing and even escalating contempt and hatred.
John 8:44
"44 You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. Whenever he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies."
Nephilim!!!! Really?????
One of the lies of the devil, that angels mated with humans, absolute silliness.
Genesis 1:24 "24 Then God said, "Let the earth bring forth living creatures AFTER THEIR KIND: cattle and creeping things and beasts of the earth AFTER THEIR KIND"; and it was so."
Did we get that; "AFTER THEIR OWN KIND"
If you had any questions before about Billy Graham, this ought to dispel them all! No comments here please in defense of Mr. Graham. Follow the Link:
In our culture parents are shocked when their children show them no respect. The school system teaches children, through the way they interact with them, that the children are special and have no need of parental guidance.
In fact the teachers have placed themselves in the role of the parent, undermining the values of the parent rather than upholding them.
Public school has been creating surrogate parents for our children for 50 years now, the very reason we have come this far, placing teachers and education above God and above parental guidance.
Proverbs 22:6 " 6 Train up a child in the way he should go, Even when he is old he will not depart from it."
Who is God speaking to in Proverbs 22? Yep, you guessed it, parents are to train their own children.
Deuteronomy 11:18-20 "18"You shall therefore impress these words of mine on your heart and on your soul; and you shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontals on your forehead. 19"You shall teach them to your sons, talking of them when you sit in your house and when you walk along the road and when you lie down and when you rise up. 20"You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates,…"
Along with morals and values we ought to be teaching our children all the academic skills they need to operate in society. When they have a reading lesson, it ought to be the Bible that they are using to learn to read.
We failed in this matter of home schooling our own children. It was during a time when home schooling was just beginning to be legal. In most places in our country we would have been punished by government for not sending them to public school. It would have been a burden for many families to pay for private institutions that were Bible based.
We know first hand what happens when children are raised in a liberal area of the country with teachers who undermine the authority of the parent. The children become stubborn, rebellious and arrogant looking down their noses at their own parents.
If you are a believer and raising school age children, my advice to you it to get them out of those government schools, it will divide the family and ruin the children.
