Psalms 127: 3-5

Psalms 127: 3-5, "Lo, sons are a heritage from the LORD, the fruit of the womb a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the sons of one's youth. Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them! He shall not be put to shame when he speaks with his enemies in the gate."

1 Timothy 4: 12

"Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity." - 1 Timothy 4: 12
"The world cries for men who are strong--strong in conviction, strong to lead, to stand, to suffer. I pray that you will be that kind of man--glad that God made you a man, glad to shoulder the burden of manliness in a time when to do so will often bring contempt." ~ Elisabeth Elliot, Mark of a Man

How Do We Know Our Children Are Saved?

One of the ways I believe we can examine our children’s fruitfulness is their “heart” attitude in all that they do. Some questions to ponder:
  1. Do they love God above all else?
  2. Love His Word, music, worship, praise, people, church, activities and application of Christian world and life view to everything?
  3. Do they want to spend “quality” and “quantity” time in the things of God?
  4. Do they want to please their parents and do what is “just and proper” in the sight of God?
  5. Do they have generous spirit and giving heart?
  6. Do they obey those that rule over them, including their parents?
  7. Do they respect their elders and those older than themselves?
  8. Are they kind, tenderhearted, humble and forgiving?
  9. Is their love shown in what they say and do?
  10. Do they love God more than the things of the world, i.e., the lust of eyes, flesh and pride of life?
  11. Is God in their future plans in education, career and marriage?
  12. Have they made public profession of faith, exercised their faith and witness to others of their faith?
  13. Are they obedient to the sacraments of baptism and the Lord’s supper?
