Why are you being educated? Your parents send you to school.You attend classes,you learn mathematics,you learn languages,literature, science,history ,geography etc.What is the point of your passing examinations and getting degrees? Is it to get a job,to get married and settle down in life as majority of people do? The whole world is questioning the basis of education.We see what education has been used for.
What does Bible say about educating Children.If "we don't teach our children to follow christ world will teach them not to". Discipline is a form of teaching your child.(Prov.22:6) "Teach a child how he could live,and he will remember it all his life". We will not hide these truth from our children,we will tell the next generation about the glorious deeds of the Lord,about his power and his mighty wonders.
Human being throughout the world are being educated to conform,to fit into society and into their culture,to fit into that vast stream that has been flowing for million of years.Is that education or is education something entirely different?
(Deu.6:5-9) "Love the Lord your God with all your heart,with all your soul,and with all your strength.Never forget these commands that I am giving you today.Teach them to your children.Repeat them when you are at home and when you are away,when you are resting and when you are working.Write them on the doorposts and your houses and on your gates." Real education means that a human mind,your mind,not only is capable of being excellent in mathematics,literature,geography,science and history,but also can never,under any circumstances,be drawn into the stream of society.
Teach them be Obedient:"Children,obey your parents,for this is the right thing to do."Respect your father and mother" is the first commandment that has a promise added,"All will be well with you,and you will live a long time." Parents,do not make your children angry,but bring them up with the training and teaching of the Lord.
(Matt.19:13-15)"Some people brought children to Jesus for him to place his hands on them and to pray for them,but the disciples scolded the people.Jesus said,"Let the children come to me and do not stop them,because the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these." He placed his hands on them and then went away.You teach them by the way you conduct yourself.Be a good role model and don't cause them to stumble.
(Prov.22:15) "Children just naturally do silly,careless,but a good spanking will teach them how to behave." ( 29:17)"Discipline your son and you can always be proud of him.He will never give you reason to be ahmed."
Because the stream of universe that we can call it as living,is very corrupt,is immoral,violent,greedy.That stream is our culture.So,the question is how to bring the right kind of education so that the mind can withstand all temptations,all influences,the bestiality of this civilisation and culture.Freedom from fear comes from being educated truth that is "search for truth" improve human conditions,be focused more on social,academic,cultural and intellectual development so the student can grow as a responsible citizens.
