Oxford Terrace Baptist Church in Christchurch hosts a seminar on Saturday 18 August with Brian Smith (principal emeritus Carey Baptist College):
“‘Will Our Children Have Faith?'”
I looked up The Collins Concise Dictionary and where it says “generation” I read “all the people of approximately the same age, esp. when considered as sharing certain attitudes, etc.” I am also learning that the years separating one generation from the next is about 35 years for humans.
In the BIBLE we read about the generation of the upright and the generation of those who seek God.
It says that the generation of the upright will be be blessed and that the generation of those who seek God and seek the face of God will not only ascend the hill of the LORD but also stand in his holy place.
Do you belong to the generation of the upright and the generation of those who seek God?
If you do you certainly have the desire to declare the power of God to the next generation.
If you do belong to the generation of the upright and to the generation of those who seek the God you have the desire to declare the might of God to all who are to come.
And you will also commend the works of God to the next generation.
You will also tell your children of the mighty acts of God.
If we have experienced the power of God and his might, if we have experienced the works of God and his mighty acts in our families our children will have FAITH!
