When Christians send children off to government school, they are not only sharing responsibility, but delegating the authority of educating their children to unbelievers. They are, as the Apostle Paul describes in Corinthians; unequally yoked with unbelievers.  What makes them think their children will follow Parental guidance, while being indoctrinated into atheist, humanist, and statist worldviews?

John Dewey and other Sociologists instilled in parents today’s common belief that schooling is a social tool.  Dewey believed Public Schools to be the primary institution of social change.  Christians claim to understand the myriad of problems with Secular education, all the while touting socialization and proselytizing as the key reasons to send their children to government schools. Do they not understand they’ve conveniently sent their children off to socialize within, and proselytize warehouses where drug abuse is rampant, sexual promiscuity is the norm and bullies reign supreme? These parents are delusional to think their kids are going to be a light in the dark.  They’re going to be lambs to the slaughter, and ultimately leave the faith.

In truth, Christian parents have simply been taken in by free education.  Their children are the targets of intentional humanist social change and they either don’t know or don’t care.  At home they may teach them about Jesus, but the government school system is adept at instilling their religion of humanism.  Is this being a responsible parent?  Are Christians not commanded  to train up a child the way he will go? How will they accomplish this with the kids in government schools that deny God’s existence while obliterating any boundaries set by Biblical standards?

Matthew 18:6

“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.”

Parents are indeed offending the little ones.  Christian parents have assigned responsibility and delegated authority for their children’s educations to humanists. Parents are eternally culpable and accountable for this reckless mistake.  The example set for their children is one of hypocrisy.  They don’t really believe in negative consequences for disobedience to God.  These kids are being thrown to the wolves.  The small amount of time spent with their kids will do little to undo the damage being done to them in school.

Their children will be taught to not only tolerate, but accept as normal all of the different types of degeneracy God warns us of in the Bible.  They will be taught obedience to men’s arbitrary law, where there are no negative sanctions upon death, instead of adherence to God’s law, in which disobedience brings negative sanctions for all of eternity.

Their children are taught to have contempt for the Christian world view, and their own parents by default. Parents, can you compete with this? Not by sending them into the belly of the beast.  Satan is powerful, and so are his enticements. The 2 hours you may spend after dinner in front of the television with your kids will have little to no Godly impact on your children. They will be completely indoctrinated by the State 8-10 hours a day, plus extracurricular activities.  You will be constantly up in arms over what your children are saying and doing, all the while in denial of your own culpability in their actions. You will have sacrificed your children on the altar of convenience. Free Public Schooling.

As Fathers, the head of our household and spiritual leaders of our homes, we are commanded by God to teach our children to fear God, and to impress upon them the importance of keeping his commandments. Teaching our children historical positive and negative sanctions of obedience and disobedience to Christ, will give our children every chance of receiving God’s blessings on earth, and for all eternity.

We are told by the Apostle Paul to not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. It was a teaching that showed the wisdom of separating ourselves from unbelievers. Ethically we have little to nothing in common with unbelievers. We believe our actions have consequences for all eternity. Humanists believe when we die, it’s over.  Your children should not be raised by them. You’re asking for trouble.

It’s beyond time for Christians to take responsibility for your own children. By teaching your children the skills for learning, to master reading comprehension, writing, math and the sciences, we can give them the critical thinking skills and Godly wisdom necessary to lead, and rebuild our Republic from the ground up.  We can guide them, while allowing them to pursue their own education and interests while seeking Gods will for their lives without the unnecessary distractions .  I hope as Stay at Home Dads, and Home School Fathers, you’ll make the commitment to obey Gods word, and  train up your children.  Consider the following wisdom from the Apostle Paul…

Ephesians 6:4

“And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.“

How can this possibly be done by sending your children to Government Schools?
