Divided

As most of my friends know we have chosen not to put our children into Sunday schools or children's church and now as we enter the youth group age we will also be saying "No thank-you". This video is amazing and explains our *why* very clearly. :)

Malachi 4:5-6 says, “Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD. And he will turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers, lest I come and strike the earth with a curse.”

We desire to see families mended such that the hearts of fathers are turned to their children and the hearts of children are turned to their fathers. The only way that this will happen is through a turning of the hearts of men toward the Word of God. Jesus prayed that His followers would be sanctified through God’s truth, which is the Word of God (John 17:17). We are not sanctified through anything else, and this calls us to return to the Reformation doctrine of sola Scriptura (Scripture alone).

I applaud you. I do not separate from my children at church either.
