FATHER, YOU ARE IMPORTANT

FATHER, YOU ARE IMPORTANT

Hollywood portrays father as a bumbling idiot and as a necessary evil for the propagation of mankind (evolution doesn’t seem to be doing the job). The homosexual and lesbian community says there is no need for a father (except again, for conception purposes) and that all that is necessary is that two people love each other.
However, that is not God’s view of the father as can be seen in the following:

“Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it” (Proverbs 22:6).

“Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him” (Proverbs 22:15).

“Correct thy son and he shall give thee rest; yea, he shall give delight unto thy soul” (Proverbs 29:17).

“Thou shalt keep therefore his statutes, and his commandments, which I command thee this day, that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee, and that thou mayest prolong thy days upon the earth, which the LORD thy God giveth thee, for ever” (Deuteronomy 4:40).

” Observe and hear all these words which I command thee, that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee for ever, when thou doest that which is good and right in the sight of the LORD thy God” (Deuteronomy 12:28).

“Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me” (Exodus 20:5).

“And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord” (Ephesians 6:4).

The Bible says it all.
