Righteous living is the way into Heaven. No unbeliever started out as a Christian in right standing with the Lord. Our sin nature made it necessary for us to need a Savior and Salvation.

Has it ever seemed like free will and choice are curses? Why didn’t God make us free and exempt from sin? Well, a great number of human behavior acts like freedom from sin is a liberty and inherited right.

God made us to function in love apart from sin. He does not force His love but gently offers us eternity, a life free from sin and eternal death; when we adapt and abide by His principles for life.

Evil was already in the environment at the birth of the first man and woman on earth. God gave them a choice to stay away from evil but they thought sin was pretty and harmless.

Genesis 2:15 And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.
16 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:
17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.

The word of God teaches us to start grooming our children from birth and prepare them for evil encounters. Children are to follow the instructions of Godly parents. The Lord made parents responsibility for teaching children about good, evil, and its effects.

Children are responsible for learning and following parental guidance. A break down comes in family when each group (parents and children) refuse to follow God’s mandate for family.

People we have too many breakdowns in family. Modern day families look less and less like God’s institution of family. The Ishmael Spirit of bringing forth counterfeit family is so prevalent in our day. One male husband, one female wife, boys and girls, are God’s road map for family. People get off the wrong road, reclaim family, and do it God’s way. Proverbs 16:25 There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.

Ephesians 5:22 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.
23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.
24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.
25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,
27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

Ephesians 6:1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right.
2 Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;)
3 That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.
4 And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.
