THE VANITY OF "A GOOD TIME"
In some of the churches an atmosphere has come in encouraging the young people just to have a good time singing, shouting, playing guitars. If this is your aim, how can the young people be solidly built up? Within a few years the Lord's recovery will vanish. The church should be (1) a home with a family, (2) a school, (3) a hospital, and (4) a camp to train an army. In the Lord's recovery we do not want our meetings to be places of entertainment; that is the way of Babylon. If the young people are built up with the Word day after day, week after week, other serious-minded young ones will be attracted, and the future of the recovery will be bright.

| Our Purpose and Goal PARENTHOOD is published in order to
strengthen our function as parents in the Lord's Recovery to raise up our children in the Lord for His purpose. In each issue we want to highlight the positive aspects of how we can labor to fulfill our God-given stewardship. From time to time we also will identify some of the negative influences which impact on our children and frustrate us from nurturing them in the discipline and admonition of the Lord. |
