10-07 Children The Root of Humanitys Future

To understand the importance of raising children correctly, we need to review the impact this has on society as a whole, better yet a nation. To do so, one has to start with the home. It is through the rightful authority of the home that all other structure authorities are based upon. Without being covered by the covenant of obedience, and having the kingdom man in his rightful hierarchical position, we can never be covered by God’s government and his sovereignty. It is the structured authority and the hierarchy of the home that all other entities use as their structured authority.

We need to realise that the future of everything is solely dependent on the home. If we want to bring God back in our communities, our churches, our government and the governments of the world, we have to understand that we must create in our homes what God intended them to be. It is the home that Satan continues to focus his attention on because the family unit, the home, is at the centre of God’s plan. We must come to the understanding that it is the home where all things of society start. Our communities, our churches, our government and even the world at large is a direct reflection of the majority positions of the home.

The home is not only the centre of God’s plan, but the source of all God’s blessings. You will not find another covenant from God to all of humanity in the scriptures. You will find covenants with specific individuals in fulfilling God’s plan. But there is only one covenant that is with humanity as a whole. If we fail to abide by the rules of this covenant, we are outside looking in and have no relationship with God. God’s plan for humanity can only be fulfilled if we abide by the rules of the covenant. One of the single most priorities in the home is the raising of children.

Scripture tells us in Proverbs 22 verse 6, NASB, Train up a child in the way he should go. Even when he grows older, he will not abandon it. Ephesians 6 verse 4, NASB, Fathers do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord. What we need to realise is when the family breaks down everything, and I mean everything built on that foundation, crumbles with it. This means that homes that are not under the protection of God, because of failing to be underneath his covenant, causes all things to fail both inward in the home and outwardly throughout society and government.

Currently, the world at large is reaping what we have allowed our society to become. A society where the family, the home, has disintegrated. Therefore, our world is experiencing the same. We are living today in a society where it is the norm to not have a nuclear family as God intended for it to be. In fact, our entire society has had to change the way it was intended to be by having to deal with the fact that husbands and wives are divorcing, same-sex marriage, abortions are increasing in our communities, single-parent homes, and much more.

We have to deal with all this, while at the same time work to get back to what God intended of his earthly kingdom. These shifts away from God’s intended societal norms have created an all-too-common environment where children have to grow up way too early and become the parents raising their parents instead of the other way around. Children have to take care of siblings in the home, while the single parent works to afford to pay for the home expenses. Parents who fail to understand the consequences of their free sexual activity causes strife on children way too young to handle.

Adults who seem to not be able to understand the responsibilities required of them to bring children into this world do so for the pleasure of sex. Isaiah 3 verses 4 and 5, NASB, And I will make mere boys their leaders, and mischievous children will rule over them, and the people will be oppressed, each one by another and each one by his neighbour. The youth will assault the elder, and the contemptible person will assault the one honoured. When you read these two verses of scripture, it should ring true as to our society today.

The youth of today are in an outright rebellion to adult authority. Why is this? It is because there has been a breakdown upstream in God’s authority structure of the home. If we want to have a positive effect on our society today, we must first change the home. Nothing will we ever bring back harmony in the universe unless we first obtain harmony with God in the home. God created man to fulfil his purpose on this earth. What is the purpose? We get his purpose from Genesis. Genesis chapter 1, God establishes his purpose for man in this statement.

Genesis 1 verses 26 through 28, KJV, God says, Let us make man in our image after our likeness, and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him. Male and female created he them, and God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

Psalm 8 verse 5, KJV states, For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour. What does it mean to be a little lower than the angels? Like angels, man has his own mind and thought processes. Like angels, man has free will. Like angels, man is a created being, yet will live eternally, either with Christ or in hell. Yet physically, man is bound to the earth. He cannot, without mechanical aid, fly around. Man cannot go through walls. You know the superhero stuff. We may ask now, why would God do this? One insight might be that God created man with lesser abilities, so man would be solely dependent upon him.

After all, look what many of the angels did. They rebelled against God, with Lucifer specifically thinking he could place his throne higher than that of God, causing God to cast him out. Creation of humanity was to demonstrate God’s glory, to worship God and to advance his kingdom through the generations to follow. God gave specific instruction to man that would keep man in right standing with God, and through the fact that man has the ability to reproduce, to grow the kingdom of God with what God calls adopted sons and daughters. In these scriptural texts, we are given three reasons why God created male and female.

One, reflection. Let us create them in our own image. An image is a reflection. You see this when you look into a mirror. By looking into the mirror, you see a reflection of you. A mirror image. And when you see yourself, the thoughts you have about yourself is exactly what you will manifest as your life. You see, God wanted to create man and woman, and the relationship, marriage, that comes out of it to be a perfect mirror image of us in the physical realm, as we are in the invisible spiritual realm. God said we want to mirror ourselves in physical history as we are in eternity.

So we as men and women, and we that are married, are supposed to mirror the triune God. So this brings up the question then, who and what is God like? If we are supposed to be a mirror image of him, then we must understand who he is and what he is like, because if we don’t know, we cannot be mirroring them. The biblical God is one God composed of three equal persons. The Father is not the Son, the Son is not the Spirit, and the Spirit is neither the Father nor Son. However, the three persons make up the one family of God called the Godhead.

Therefore, God wanted to image that, and the way he images it is by way of creation of the family. When it came to history, the Trinity progressively entered time. The Father sent the Son. John 3 verse 16 says that God so loved the world that he sent his Son. When it was time for Jesus to leave, he sent the Holy Spirit. I am going to send you another comforter. So when it came to earth and his unveiling himself, God progressively manifested him, although he existed as the triune God. So when God created man, we should not be too terribly surprised that God didn’t create Adam and Eve at the same time.

He created them progressively. And listen now. One came out of the other. Progressive creation. Let’s look at this. God created man, Adam. God puts Adam to sleep and takes a part of him and creates Eve. God then brings Eve to Adam and gives him her. God is his creation of Eve, gave her the capacity to bring forth life from her womb. So that from Adam comes Eve, and from Eve comes a child, making up a family to mirror then the triune Godhead. With the exception of Jesus dying on the cross, the Godhead, while distinct in person, acts in sync on all issues.

They are operating as one. Because Satan could not take over the kingdom of God through direct overthrow, it is Satan’s goal on earth to split the relationship in our families and with God in order to prevent the kingdom of God’s plan on earth to be realized. It is no wonder that Satan bombards our marriages almost continuously with demonic influences through television, radio, fake news, fake friends, you name it. The attacks are for one purpose. It is Satan’s primary purpose to have us in continued conflict so that we never see God at work in our individual lives, our homes, our communities, our churches, and our elected government.

So when God is telling us that the two individuals, when married, shall become one flesh. This does not mean we give up our individualities, just the opposite. Just like the Father is not the Son or the Holy Spirit, they are in unison, so shall we be in marriage. The family is to be a mirroring of that union or unison, drawn together as one in one shared purpose. Two individuals sharing a single purpose, functioning like the Trinity in all things. Two, replication, go forth and multiply. When we have children, it is not just because we want something that looks like us.

We want a lineage, a progeny. Its purpose is to spread throughout earth the mirror image of God, kingdom expansion. You see, when children grow up, they get married and have more children. And so it goes. So God’s plan for humanity was to mirror his invisible kingdom in the physical realm on earth. The kingdom purpose of children is the replication and multiplication of his image, spreading this image throughout the earth in the growing of his kingdom. He created marriage as a system for kingdom foundation and a process of multiplication through intimacy for kingdom replication, kingdom expansion.

So when we look at failed marriages today, it is the result of Satan’s disruption of the process of God expanding his kingdom. Three, ruling. God says in Genesis 1 verse 28, and I’m paraphrasing here, we are going to let them rule. Here we go again, as in the previous chapters, dominion. God created the family as the foundation of his rulership in society. The saga of the family is the saga of a nation in a very big way. It can be said that whoever owns the family owns the future. We should understand this and oppose the breakdown of the family with every ounce of strength we have.

The breakdown of the family is the biggest social crisis in our communities, our nation, and around the world. It is at the very root of the wickedness spreading through the earth. We need to understand the necessity for unity here. God’s kingdom structure is built on and flows through individuals, then as husband and wife, and then as family. Without this, nothing else for humanity exists. God created man and woman to rule here on earth, under the same authority with which God rules in the heavens. These rulership terms are described in the covenant God made with Adam.

We need to clearly understand that having children was not only ordained by God, but required. He required us to have children in order to fulfil his plan for earth. We were to go forth and multiply because we were made in the image of God and told to replicate ourselves in order to fulfil his plan. Therefore, the purpose of having children was to replicate God and the advancement of his kingdom on earth. Thank you for joining us in this exploration of children, the root of humanity’s future.
