With a cry for a better society and for the body of Christ, I realize that
there is a need for this book.
No wonder Our Lord Jesus said let the Children come to me and
do not hinder them for such is the kingdom of heaven
(Matt 19: 14) '' Jesus said,'' Let the little children come to me,
and do not hinder them,
for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.'’
So many of us are guilty of this sin directly or indirectly,
hindering our children from coming to God in the name they are
still children forgetting that’ ‘tomorrow starts today’’. They came
into the world ignorant, helpless, and naturally. They look to
others for guidance, example, and instruction and are good
imitators. Their young and tender minds are ready to receive any
impression from whatever is done by older ones around them who
ought to be wiser than themselves, especially from their parents or
guidance. And many are given in that we are in the last days and
iniquity or lawlessness shall abound (Math 24: 12). But at the
same time the Scripture recorded that when Sin abounds grace
abound much more, that means grace will surpass it ( Rom 5: 20)
And this grace appears to us is to teach us and help us to say no to
sin
(Titus 2: 11 – 12) '' For the grace of God has appeared that
offers salvation to all people (both young and old).
It teaches us to say ''NO'' to ungodliness and worldly
passions and to live self-controlled, upright and godly
lives in this present age``..
