Shortly after writing and posting my last blog,
Christian Children … not just Moral Kids, I knew it begged a part two. Whether
clear or not, the goal of the blog was to distinguish between the reality of authentic,
orthodox, Biblical Christianity and the relativistic moralism often celebrated,
welcomed and even wrongly defined as Christianity by some today. This
distinction is essential if your goal is to faithfully represent the “faith
once for all given to the saints” in an increasingly “post-Christian”
culture—not to mention raise and admonish your children toward godliness.
Simply put, we must intentionally and continually differentiate between Christian
truth and deistic morality, especially when research and our own experience
tell us that so many either do not or cannot. Christians must know what they
believe and must seek to understand it more and more. They must love it,
cherish it, uphold it and pray for the grace to faithfully live it and make it
know– above all within their homes.
