[Dave in Tenn]

What I was wrestling with is how to confess Him before men in these times.

The law came by/through Moses.  Grace came by/through Jesus Christ.  I reckon "confessing Him" involves honoring and obeying what He said.  Following Him in His teaching and example.   Leave the rest to the lawyers and judges.  Their job is to confess Moses.

For the record, grace itself came with Jesus, not some theological concept called "grace".

Well, it feels a little personal.

When I wrote that response to you, I was thinking about the parables of Jesus being quoted (in this thread), that had absolutely nothing to do with the topic. I, personally, do not mind if you or anyone wants to vent because they are afraid of their children being negatively affected by the world. However, the Spirit warns not to follow those claiming Christ is here or there, otherwise, one of us “little ones” might stumble and sin.

As for myself, I hate the thought of my children experiencing evil, and I often wish there was some other way. Nevertheless, I know it's the best way. That doesn't mean I don't try to protect them from getting hurt. What can I do for them spiritually? That's a sincere question.
