Hell teaching in school

(1/4) > >>

Silvia Martin:



I'm floored at what they are teaching our kids in school. First my 14 year old daughter's homework assignment is to make up her own " god". They were studying Greek mythology. Today she asked me what a good eternal punishment for disrespect was. She said...her teacher said it had to be painful to humans. Natasha explained, that they were studying DANTE'S INFERNO. Now they had to come up with their own gruesome punishments. I teach my kids the right stuff... but I'm at a total loss as how to handle this. Roy of course says to raise a stink at the school... what do I do ????


   HELP,
   Silva

Hey Silvia,
Have you and Roy told your daughter the truth about hell??

Pretty sick assignment. Must be a creative writing class no?

Silvia Martin:

She knows the truth about hell and the other false church doctrines. She doesn't believe any of the stuff they're reading and her teacher told them that they shouldn't. Just reading some of those things can give a person nightmares... being boiled in blood or trapped in a coffin and then at judgment day God puts the nails in,for you to be trapped for eternity. i won't even watch those PG13 scary movies. I mean ... look at poor Lupak and what that kind of teaching has done to him. We quit church to get away from this. And the worst part is they are making the kids play God and dish out the punishment!!!!!

Silvia,

What a painful reminder of just how similar the teachings of the 'church' go hand in hand with the world.

My wife and I dealt with such things by removing our children from the public schools and we brought them home. We have schooled them at home ever since with fairly good success, even though we're probably not very good at it.

But, we decided to take to heart passages like:

Ephesians 6:4 - And you, fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the training and admonition of the Lord. (NKJV)

To me, this meant it was my job and not the job of total strangers as well as people who are not like-minded to instruct my children, especially in the things of the Lord.

and this one:

Proverbs 22:6 - Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it.

Who has the primary task of training up a child? The parents. (See Titus 2)

I am thankful that your daughter knows the truth. Now, how will she deal with this subject with it being forced upon her this way?

No matter what you do and how you handle this, in the end, you and Roy will prayerfully handle this as God shows you how. Of this I have no doubt. He has given you the task of raising your child in the way she should go, so I am confident He will lead you every step of the way.

Hi Sylvia,

I myself need some input as to how to handle kids studying in a school where Babylonian doctrines are being taught.  But as for me, I just let it go.  Like your kids, my kids can handle those doctrines, I think, with of course a steady guidance from us, parents.  In fact, I want them to be exposed to various doctrines, not only of the Catholics, but also of different Protestant churches, and make them come to me and ask questions about them.  Through this, I guess, they will begin to treasure the truth as much as I am now.
