School Daze
2 Timothy 4:4 “And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.”
Well, the kids are back in school now, the fall season is quickly approaching, it’s time to hunker down into the mostly joyful time of educating our children. I pray that if you have school-aged kids that they are either being homeschooled or attend a good Bible-believing Christian school. Public school is no place for a child. I know I may ruffle a few feathers with that statement but as a rule, I speak the truth. I understand there may be exceptions in different situations.
I’ve heard Christian parents say that they send their kids to public school to be a light in a dark place. I say that the light will get snuffed out. Children are still being trained and are not ready to be thrown to the lions. A Christian adult would even have problems if he tried standing tall at a public school.
I live in a very liberal, democratic state in a very liberal, democratic town. (By the way, my prediction for the election is McCain/Palin…quite interesting what is taking place). I pay town taxes that in part go to a very “respected and award-winning” elementary school just around the corner from my house. Instead of taking advantage of the “free” school, we chose to invest our time and money in a Christian education for our kids. As far as money goes, we didn’t have that, and we trusted God to provide. He has been faithful. I don’t want to sound like a voicepiece for the Lord but I don’t believe He wants your kids in the government schools.
When they took prayer out of the public schools in 1962, it was the beginning of the end. Only a fool would say that progress has been made. Part of the taxpayer’s dollars go to metal detectors now in many schools. ??? What child wants to live in fear like that? Satan will strangle the life out of the children because he knows they are the future. How does he do it? Slowly and subtly like a boa constrictor. Day after day, year after year he wraps the world’s beliefs and philosophies around each child. Evolution is proclaimed as fact, acceptance of “alternate” lifestyles is promoted, as well as acceptance of other religions, sexual immorality, drugs/alcohol, worldly attitudes, immodesty, and it goes on and on and on. By the time a child has graduated, he is completely brainwashed.
God gave up on the public school system long ago. Yes, our children are to be lights in this dark world. We are to be separated from the world as well. Pray earnestly for your kids and don’t hand them over to the enemy. Life is short and regrets can last a lifetime. Ephesians 6:4, “And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.”

I find it interesting that may Christian parents rationalize sending their children to public school in order for them to be “missionaries” to unsaved children. However, I find no biblical examples of children being used as missionaries.
Sending our children to public schools to “save souls” while they receive 6-7 hours of secular brainwashing, does not relieve us of our accountability before God. Disobeying God and doing something in the name of God does not justify our sin.

“Thus saith the Lord, Learn not the way of the heathen” Jer.10:2 Public schools are teaching the way of the heathen while ignoring God’s ways……..
