Things Not to Believe
Let babies cry. It is good for their lungs.
When crying is the only means of communication by which an
infant can express that they have a need, emotional abandonment
is not a response of love.
Children are to be seen and not heard.
If it annoyed God to hear from us, we'd be up a creek without a
paddle.
'Sparing the rod' means the child will be spoiled.
Thy rod and thy staff shall comfort thee. Spare the comfort and
the child will spoil.
Kids get over it.
How many childhood hurts do you remember, wherein the response
wasn't love?
This hurts me more than it does you.
Yea, right!
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
Punishing or accusing a child, in advance of being tempted,
eliminates motive for doing right.
Ministering to adults is more important than to children.
Train up a child to love God and the church and, when he is old,
he will love the church.
Children are the future leaders of tomorrow.
If children aren't aloud to serve today, they won't be leading
tomorrow.
Don't cause children to suffer by telling them they can't serve
Jesus.
If you weren't guilty this time, count it for the time you were
guilty and didn't get caught.
Not even our law judges a person before they have had a chance
to speak for themselves.
If you get into trouble at school, you should also get into
trouble at home.
God doesn't punish twice for the same crime and double jeopardy
is against the law when done to adults.
It isn't punishment. It's discipline.
Punishment, by any other name, is still the same.
Obedience to teachings of men will win you favor with God.
If any lack wisdom, ask God yourself.
We do things to our children that God doesn't even do to us.
Child Abuse was once legal, in the name of the Lord. Who are we
listening to now? Isn't it about time we use the brain God gave
us, let God be our example and become spiritual ministers toward
our children, instead of waiting for others to do it?
