Re: Old way of Holiness Standard do we need to kee

Quote:
Children obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. Ephesians....How many things can be said about this one scripture. Volumes! You as a parent are the one that decides what is acceptable attire for your children. Unless you just say...children I trust you to make the right choices. How can you trust them unless they are taught what is right and what is wrong. So whether you want to admit it, you as a parent must decide and enforce what is proper and improper for your children.
"Because I said so!" IS a valid reason for a parent to give their kid..... When their kid is 7, 8, or 9, or younger. However, as they get older, they do need some reasons. When I was in my middle teens I heard "because the Church says...." or more commonly "because the pastor says!" as "reason enough!" to do something. When I became an adult, the freedom from that sort of reasoning was very liberating!
