1800 Circular Letter of the Kehukee (North Carolina) Association
Parents should be careful to preserve and cultivate the morals of their children, they should use their authority and not gratify them in their own wicked desires, such as frolicking, vain company keeping, gaming, idle visits on the Lord’s day, &c., but should on that day carry them to places of public worship, and after they return endeavor to impress upon their minds the things they heard; for, after giving too great a loose to the reins of our children’s lusts, we shall find our reproofs to be in vain. Witness the sons of Eli. 1st Sam. ii. 23, 24, 25. And Solomon says, “Chasten thy son while there is hope, and let not thy soul spare for his crying.” Prov. xix. 18. If we cannot command the hearts of our children and family to make them pray, and love God, we may teach and admonish them; and should all our endeavors fail, we may lastly have recourse to the example of Job. Job i. 5. |
