Weekly Ramblings 16

It's been a long time since my last Ramblings and due to massive demand (not) they are back hopefully on a regular basis from now on.

The most quoted scripture over the NCFIC conference day (10 lectures) was
 

Deuteronomy 6:6,7

 

6And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: 7 And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.

 

These words are an awesome commandment from the LORD himself, notice that the words are not an injunction to the priests, or the temple but to Parents that they may teach them to their children. So we today are not to leave the all religious instruction of our children to schools, church or any other but to take the main responsibility upon overselves, it is not to be undertaken haphazardly but diligently  the Hebrew word is שָׁנַן (šā·nǎn): inculcate, teach by rote, impress, formally, repeat, say again, i.e., teach information or behaviors to a student, implying the material is gone over two or more times (Dt 6:7+), note: some sources relate to 9111, with a focus on "sharpening" the student to be potent for action, as a sharp blade is able to cut, but no change in the domain of meaning

 

also notice the circumstances of the instruction, basically, all of life both formally in family devotions and informally, for this we need to be walking the talk and taking every opportunity to share God with our children.

I have just found your site and would be really interested in hearing more of your ‘ramblings’ in the future.

This will I hope be the recording of our journey to self sufficiency and the building of a christian community. I believe that we as a family have been called to Christian Agrarianism.
