A Strong Family Nucleus
Only a strong family nucleus can counter the toxic effects of the false prophets. In the period leading up to and doing Revelations, our family values and relationships will be tested. This is no secret. Children have a responsibility to their parents.
BUT, parents have an obligation and responsibility to teach their children! At no time does this include any type of abuse or harsh forms of discipline. This type of behavior is counter productive and at the very lease will lead to the children resenting and hating their parents when they get older. Parents have the responsibility to teach their children right from wrong and to socialize their children in what is and is not acceptable. As any parent will tell you, this is easier said then done.
There are so many temptations out there. All having one purpose, the temptations are out there to draw children away from God. The temptations promise immediate acceptance, a feeling that the person can only be loved if they join a particular group (and only that group can give them love). The only thing that the group wants is their loyalty. They don’t realize that once they pledge their loyalty; these groups will that away their freedom.
Up until now, I have been talking about children but grown ups and the elderly are equally at risk of falling into this trap. A trap put out there by the Devil and carried out by his soldiers the false prophets. Cults and Gangs don’t only entrap the young; they entrap the old too. Older people join cults for the same reasons young people join gangs, run a way, use drugs/alcohol and steal. Cults promise to make a person feel loved and accept. (This is just another way false prophets acting on the Devil’s behalf commit blasphemy.) To an adult who thinks the world has forgotten about them, this venom is very intoxicating and addicting.
Cults and Gangs take away a person’s freedom. By saying you have to follow one person. God dose not want you to blindly follow any one person. God does not want you to blindly follow Him. God want you to come to Him out of love, respect and trust. Not out of fear! Yet, these groups rule by fear. Even when Man went against God in the Garden of Eden, God didn’t take away a man’s freedom. He just kicked the sinful human out…for a while (more on this in a later Blog). By going back to God, a person gets back their freedom.
How can these traps be avoided? With the old equation: respect=love. Were do we learn this simple yet complicated equation? We learn it in the family nucleus. Energy flows form the equation to the family. Its energy will never be depleted because it comes from God. And to receive it, all we have to do is to open our self’s up to the power and glory of God. It was by God’s design that we learn it in the family nucleus and it is the strongest there. God knows that the devil’s false prophets try to drive a person away from their family with false promises and venom (drugs and alcohol). So, He made the respect=love equation into a machine. And, the machine gives off magnet energy. By Gods design, this energy can and will pull people away from the intoxication and addicting venom of the Devil’s false prophets back into their families and Gods true love. The stronger the family is the stronger the magnet field. Thus, bring lost people back into the safety and love of their families.
I think this is what Christ meant in the way ward son parable (Luke 15:11-32). For a long time I had a “problem” with this parable (Because I didn’t understand it). I through the Father in the story was being very unfair to the good son who stayed home and tended the fields. I was left with the impression that the good son got nothing and the bad son got everything. It seamed to contradict everything that I’ve been told that the Bible said. I couldn’t understand why the Father killed the fattest calf and made a big party for the son who didn’t tend the land or cared enough for his parents to stay home and work their land. The church, that I grown up in always did a very poor job in explaining it. It is only in reading it from the view point that we are living in the times of Revelations and seeing that we need for a strong family nucleus in order to survive Revelation that it is slowly begging to make sense to me.
