What is Sin? 

Interesting question. What is patriotism and what is idol worship in American understanding. How does one separate out the two concepts?

Having the right relationship with God and seeking him daily gives clear perspective. Patronage and idol worshipping are quite the opposite.

Children of this Generation ‘Don’t feel sorry for or fear for your kids (grandkids) because the world they are going to grow up in is not what it used to be. God created them and has called them for the exact moment in time that they’re in. Your children’s (grandchildren’s) lives weren’t a coincidence or an accident. Raise them up to know the power they walk in as children of God. Train them up in the authority of His Word. Teach them to walk in faith knowing that God is in control. Empower them to know they can change the world. Don’t teach them to be fearful and disheartened by the state of the world, but hopeful that they can do something about it. Every person in all of history has been placed in the time that they were in because of God’s sovereign plan. God knew Daniel could handle the lion’s den. God knew David could handle Goliath. God knew Esther could handle Haman. God knew Peter could handle persecution. God knows that your child (grandchild) can handle whatever challenge he or she will face in their life. God created them specifically for it! Don’t be scared for your children (grandchildren), but be honored that God chose you to parent (grandparent) the generation that is facing the biggest challenges of our lifetime. Rise up to the challenge. Raise Daniels, Davids, Esthers and Peters! God isn’t scratching His head wondering what He’s going to do with this mess of a world. God has an army He’s raising up to drive back the darkness and make Him known all over the earth. Don’t let your fear steal the greatness God has placed in your children (grandchildren). It’s hard to imagine your children (grandchildren) as anything besides ‘our sweet little babies’ that we just want to protect from anything that could ever be hard on them,but they have been born for such a time as this.’ ~ Author Unknown
