  11. (Proverbs 22:6) Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it. A Sobering Thought: Which Way Will Your Child Go? Remember me as you pass by, As you are now, so once was I, As I am now, so you must be, Prepare for death & follow me. To follow you I’ll not be content, Until I know which way you went!

  12. Parents: You have a responsibility to train up a child. Raising them in a “Christian home” is not enough! 1 Samuel 3:11–14 (NKJV) 11 Then the Lord said to Samuel: “Behold, I will do something in Israel at which both ears of everyone who hears it will tingle. 12 In that day I will perform against Eli all that I have spoken concerning his house, from beginning to end. 13 For I have told him that I will judge his house forever for the iniquity which he knows, because his sons made themselves vile, and he did not restrain them. 14 And therefore I have sworn to the house of Eli that the iniquity of Eli’s house shall not be atoned for by sacrifice or offering forever.”

  22. Fathers: Recognize Your responsibility to discipline. Hebrews 12:5–7 (NKJV) 5 And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to sons: “My son, do not despise the chastening of the Lord, Nor be discouraged when you are rebuked by Him; 6For whom the Lord loves He chastens, And scourges every son whom He receives.” 7 If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom a father does not chasten?

  23. Fathers: Recognize Your responsibility to discipline. Deuteronomy 21:18–21 (NKJV) 18 “If a man has a stubborn and rebellious son who will not obey the voice of his father or the voice of his mother, and who, when they have chastened him, will not heed them, 19 then his father and his mother shall take hold of him and bring him out to the elders of his city, to the gate of his city. 20 And they shall say to the elders of his city, ‘This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious; he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton and a drunkard.’ 21 Then all the men of his city shall stone him to death with stones; so you shall put away the evil from among you, and all Israel shall hear and fear.

  24. Mothers: The Helper By His Side Genesis 2:18 (NKJV) 18 And the Lord God said, “It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him.”
