Matthew 18:1-6



At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?2 And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them, 3 And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. 4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven. 5And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me. 6 But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.



What powerful verses in a time the Holy Spirit is saying ,who is teaching the children and what are the children being taught ? God was part of children's education before the 60s, in the secular world. If a child was not being taught about God in the home environment, then they where introduced to Him at school. This should have never stopped but we blended in with a system satan took over and did not separate ourselves. When we ask ourselves what in the world has happened ,Matthew 18 :1-6 holds the answer.



Something I have never seen before was the words of Jesus in verse 6, But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.



Little ones which believe in me. We have created in our minds all children are innocent when in fact we see Jesus say “the ones that believe. “ I have met children I knew where not believers.

Proverbs 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
We are born into a sinful world and if you have children in your care , ask them if they know Jesus. When Mason my grandson was 1 year old and was crying , I held him and sang Jesus Loves Me , he pulled back looked at me and smiled. Never assume all children know Jesus ...Never assume they are to young to know Him...Never assume a child only needs physical healing . Jesus showed us all the different children He healed they are very important for us now ...

Luke 1:41 And it came to pass, that, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost:



From the womb , they need to start hearing about God the Father , Jesus our Savior and the Holy Ghost our teacher and comforter.



John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.





Matthew 13:38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one.



There are only 2 choices...Do our children know this?

Compulsory schooling from the beginning. Has been a tool for the civil government to extend loyalty to the state above family. It's been the lever for societal decay we see around us everywhere.

In my view, a sincere Christian should do everything within their power. To take their children out if those institutions. Also, less and less children of Christian families are believers when they reach maturity. Specifically because most of the school administrators promote a Marxist ideology in the name of education.

A Christian child will be actively bullied within those walls. Nearly everything their parents believe in the home. Will be derided and none will make a peep.

So in closing, even if for a few generations God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is promoted within the schools. Marxists will still do everything in their power. To try and regain authority over developing people. They know it's the first step for them implementing control of the public.

I am glad you said this because God is showing us it is time to leave that system altogether now that gender is being taught

OP please spend time in the Word and study prayer, I use to not understand prayer and our relationship to God , I would not take little things to Him. Then one day I could not get a dryer clamp back on my disabled brothers dryer , I cursed. I stopped and ask God to pleas help me. It went right on the next try. I once prayed a demon out of a cat so never tell yourself or anyone to not pray... Study and may God open your eyes...
