1. Godly Parents, Faithful Children
Ideally and realistically, this is what the Bible presents to us about a home that is well-pleasing in the sight of God.
More often than not, when a home contains godly parents (not just good parents, or even parents who are members of the church of Christ, but godly parents) it will produce children that are faithful to the Lord.
I believe we all recognize that there are exceptions to “godly parents, faithful children.”
Overall, Isaac and Rebekah were God-fearing parents, yet their oldest son Esau turned out to be a godless man (Hebrews 12:16), while Jacob his younger brother (though having his own flaws), feared God and served Him throughout his life.
And on the other side of that, Josiah is regarded as one of the most righteous and faithful kings of Judah, and yet both his father (Amon) and grandfather (Manasseh) were very wicked men. Unlike his father & grandfather, he chose to follow the ways of Jehovah.
Sometimes we sing the hymn: “God Give Us Christian Homes.” Well tonight, we will dedicate ourselves to learning how that is possible. Know this up front. It will require much effort and sacrifice, however, it will be well worth it in the end. If you save all the souls of your family, and no one else you will be a great success story. Noah, a man who walked with God, saved himself and his family from the corruption & destruction of this world.
So let us take the time to examine the characteristics of godly parents and the characteristics of faithful children that is outlined for us in the Word of God. Then I would challenge all parents to search your lives to see if you possess these essential qualities, and then for the young people that are present to do the same.
