That is nice but really why do we even take the time to have a school isnt it just an unecessary ministry?

i can get school for free from the government.

I have some question i would like to put forth but before i do i want to establish 3 truths

Truth #1 children are a heritage from God ownership of children belongs to the creator.

Psalm 127:3

Heritage is not a expendable resource but instead it is a somethig given with the thought of improving and multiplying it.

God’s Heritage is not just a salvation.

IThis started in the Garden Be fruitful and multiply.

WHat were they multiplying?

not just number but a Human race that was to walk and talk with thier creator as their Hevanly father.

Moses Clerifies this thought in Deut.

6:1-25 Your children are an heritage because they carry the capability to love God to a greater extent than you.

Truth #2 parents are responsible for their children’s education.

Ephesians 6:4

"Bring them up” rear or nourish (ektrephete, “provide for physical and spiritual needs” Harold W. Hoehner, “Ephesians,” in The Bible Knowledge Commentary: An Exposition of the Scriptures, ed.

J. F. Walvoord and R. B. Zuck, vol. 2 (Wheaton, IL: Victor Books, 1985), 642.

The word for “nurture” was used by the ancient Greeks of the general education of a child, of the whole course of training by which a boy was reared into a man
