“Parents are accountable before God to meet their responsibilities to their children, He is vitally concerned about their welfare. Jesus said that anyone who would hurt the faith of a little child would be better off sinking in the sea with a millstone attached to his neck”. (Pg. 81)
Loving your children is an obvious duty for a parent. But disciplining your child is also part of the obligation we have as parents. When we think about hurting a child, we sometimes think in terms of physical or verbal abuse which can and does sadly happen. But what about robbing them of the benefits of a strong faith. Aother facet of parenting is discipline. Failure to teach your child self-control can damage their faith. Now obviously the child must be willing to learn and obey. But if we want our kids to have strong faith, then discipline will be a part of their learning process.
Matthew 18:6
“But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, 1 it would be better for him to have a huge millstone 2 hung around his neck and to be drowned in the open sea.
