@Guertez@yankeeslite@Buster_ESPN I would rather have Bogaerts over Trevor Story.
If they had signed him earlier, it would not have been an 11 year contract.
@JakeWea97649285 Legalism is adding burdens not relaxing them to be easy to achieve.
Encouraging fathers to regularly give their children Scripture isn’t about earning or “achieving” anything, it’s just encouraging faithful responsibility.
@JakeWea97649285 I agree discipleship happens throughout daily life. Regular intentional time in Scripture with our families whether by reading, memorizing, or teaching it directly is a good and reasonable practice to encourage. Encouraging more of that is not lowering the standard.
@JakeWea97649285 I never claimed that daily worship was the whole of discipleship.
But reading Scripture, praying, and singing together isn’t “lowering the standard.” It’s the foundation that makes that teaching possible.
And teaching requires scripture, otherwise, what are you teaching from?
@JakeWea97649285 So first you claim my view was legalistic, box checking…but now you’re saying my view is too weak and lowers the biblical standard?
Which is it? Those are literally opposite criticisms.
@JakeWea97649285 But we’ll have to end the conversation here.
This is 9th commandment violation territory. Bearing false witness against me.
You don’t know (and are totally incorrect about) my motives nor do you know what the interactions in my household look like to make such a claim.
@JakeWea97649285 First of all, you’re slandering me. Assuming my motives.
Secondly, of course discipleship goes deeper than that.
Thirdly,
My goal isn’t to earn grace, but to faithfully steward the responsibility God already gave me as a father to disciple my children.
@JakeWea97649285 Did I ever say not to do those things? The problem is creating a false dichotomy that you can’t do both those things or that family worship can’t be part of that fun.
I can play games, have good convos, even watch good movies with my kids on the same nights we do family worship
@JakeWea97649285 No I take “You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them WHEN you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise” if anything, it is more than a daily occurrence.
