About this Episode
This morning, Pastor Matt shows us the difference between proverbs and promises in scripture, and he helps us understand that the power of salvation is up to God alone. When training up children, there is no biblical promise for the outcome - it's up to God in dealing with each individual through the Holy Spirit speaking directly to them that prompts the realization and the need for a relationship with Christ.
_Our job as parents is not to produce good kids. Your job on this earth is to show them and to teach them the love of who Jesus is. And how they turn out, here it is, let me take the pressure off of you, it's not up to you. There's some of you out there with adult children right now that are just not walking with Jesus. And you've been living in the shame for a really long time blaming yourself that you messed your kid up. But can I tell you something? Could you have done it differently? Yeah. Could you have done it better? Probably. Is it your fault? No. It's not your fault. Why? Because this is not a promise. It's a proverb. _
