  3. Child Training Obstacles Being defensive of our parenting • “Don’t tell me how to raise my kid!” • 2 Tim 4:1-5– preach the word in season & out • Titus 2:4 Christian mothers are to teach younger mothers • Prov. 13:1 Christians receive instruction humbly • Acts 2:41; 28:23-28 • 2 Cor. 10:3-5 spiritual weapon of God’s word is to break down defensive attitude in opposition to God

  4. Misunderstanding of goals/methods • If you don’t know what the job of a parent is, you won’t be a good one • Eph 6:4– there is a proper way to train children: what God has said • Titus 2:4– “love your children” not the instinctive love for a child (STORGE), but showing love in the way one is raised by raising them correctly • Heb 12 – sorrowful experiences/sufferings will teach children characterand provide them with greater long-term happinessRm 5:3-4 • Not “do” you love your children, but “how” you love your children

  5. Misunderstanding of human nature • Do not think that children do not learn while they are in their first few years of life • Learning Romanian • Learning religion: “I don’t want to impose” • By not teaching them, we are teaching them • What are we teaching them at every point in the child’s life? • Remember our imperfections • Be diligent to model morality, kindness at home • Apologize when you do wrong

  6. Trust in worldly philosophies • People trust in the way their parents raised children, their friends, book, etc. – not the bible • The world can put “unreasonable” expectations on the way children are supposed to be raised • Col 2:8 – do not trust in worldly philosophies, but in Jesus • Col. 2:9-10, 3 – by trusting in Dr. Spock, etc. we’re saying Jesus is not complete • use wisdom to apply biblical principles • 2 Pt 1:3 all things pertaining to life & godliness

  7. Parental baggage • Baggage – how we were brought up, spouse brought up, etc. • Reject parents’ strictness • Reject parents’ over-permissiveness • One ought to look at it objectively • All parents did some right and wrong • 2 Peter 1:8-9– there can be a short‐sightedness or far‐sighted • Heb 5:11– because of their baggage, it made it hard for them to understand

  8. We All Have Baggage • Matt. 11:28-30 • Jesus calls us to let go of it and take up His light burden • Provides easy yoke to help • Jesus provides rest • Trust God! • Don’t trust men’s doctrines • Humbly submit to God’s way Acts 2:38
