I know one boy he is 20 y.o or something like that ... well, when he was little his mother thought that he does not need to study in school , education is not important ..... well, he is not able to supprt himslef now ... and if he is working he is getting real small payment and he reads like 1st grate boy who just start to go to school ... not sure what future will this boy will have
Luba, you should tell him about this liberty in Jesus Christ then. I have faith that his future will be a great one. Now, don't get offended.

The heart of a child is a beautiful one. This same man, if he neglected to hear the advice of people, could certainly be more qualified to teach even a college professor. This young man might perhaps turn to the Lord, and the Lord will lift up his head, and bless him. I would say, leave this young man alone because he might cry out to the Lord, and the Lord might hear him, and everyone who spoke ill of his knowledge might be ashamed when they hear him speak with authority out of the very mouth of God!!

Who would have liked David then? David did not need people to tell him what to do, because people are ever ready to put each other down, but David looked away from people and up to God for his direction. Because only God brought him from a shepherd boy tending his Father's sheep to THE KING OF ISRAEL! And yes, God can do it again in this man's life. God sees his future, so minister to it. May Jesus bless you.

I said they don't need school. But tell me this, many of the Pharisees were educated men, but God chose fishermen, who were very uneducated men. In fact he built his church by one fishermen Peter. Indeed, they were uneducated men as pertaining to this world, but they had an abundance of knowledge as pertaining to the Spirit of God. And we know God is unlimited in his knowledge. They don't need school, they need Jesus!!!

Jesus is light and HE is important. Knowledge will cease with men, but the knowledge of the most High God will never end. And if men are too wise to speak of him, then he would gladly use a foolish donkey. And if the donkey doesn't THE VERY ROCKS WILL CRY OUT!! But God needs neither, because he can teach you himself. May Jesus bless you.


i disagree about your point of you that kids does not need education ... they do need and its imoprtant for our life ... God gave all this to us so we can use it for our own good ... GB

Not so, God can teach anything to any one, regardless of age. He can teach an infant the gospel of Jesus Christ before he is even born. He can teach a child to know physics if he wants to, if he purposes it in his heart. God is the great teacher, and he has taught me much. In fact I have studied many things and all understanding came from him. I used to be considered dumb, but now there are things about this world that God has taught me that even the greatest scientist might think are absurd. Yet they are true, because I have it from God himself. May Jesus bless you.
Yes so, because what I said is supported by actual facts. Unless the child is exceptionally gifted, he or she will have a problem understanding the concepts of physics.

Education is important. I educate myself daily. Not just with bible-related issues, but also other subjects so that I can fully grasp the implications of all.

You don't need school!!! My friends you have heard many people say that you need to go to school and get a good education, and that it is hard to make it without one. But they fail to see the greater picture. Doesn't this make you feel free?? It did for me!!

I made the decision after graduating from highschool that I would not further my education. I am extremely satisfied with my decision some 4 years later. This is just my observation, the more book knowledge that you aquire, the less common sense is present. Common sense is not so common! I am not saying that this is true for everybody. Yes, people can educate you to understand physics, chemistry ect. but they cannot teach you how to live. The most valuable lessons learned in life are not taught in a classroom! We learn from our experiences, mistakes and much more. We need to be seeking for a GREATER KNOWLEDGE, that comes from our Lord!!!

Because what you say is supported by facts does not mean it is true. Scientist make facts all the time, but they hardly know the Truth. Do you limit the power of God? God can so provide in a child more than concepts, but pure untainted knowledge of anything. He can put a child in this world born with the knowledge of how physics works, and even more. However this knowledge is nothing separate from God.

The only thing these children need is a right relationship with Jesus Christ. Not school. May Jesus bless you.

I actually had to help my boyfriend with an assignment in his class where they had to find and apply for a job that fit the field they were studying, and unfortunately, given the bad job market (in the US anyways), we found that employers are starting to realize they have the wiggle room to be picky about who they hire. So yes, to some degree you do need to go to school if you want a decent paying job. And I'm not talking like a job that will make you filthy rich, I'm just talking about a job that will provide you with what you need to at least pay your bills and feed yourself at the same time. It is possible to get by in life without college, but it's not easy.

This inspires me.
I want to live in a homeless shelter. :D

Haha, but seriously, education is important to a certain extent. But in the long run, nothing matters but GOD. I completely agree with that idea.
Ther rest, I'm not so sure about. :p

wow ummm....im not sure how to say this without being mean but saying that kids dont need to go to school is ridiculous. Saying that God will endow a child with un-explained knowledge because they are christian doesnt make sense. That would mean God favors Christians over everyone else and God loves all of his children equally so that belief of God just giving a baby the understanding of physics is absurd. Next God chose the fishermen and David because they were humble not because they were un-educated. It just so happened that the religious leaders and romans that opposed Jesus were educated but the reason God did not chose them to build his kingdom with was because they were not humble, they believed that they knew everything and that they could never be wrong. Its not education thats bad its what you do with it.

God does favor the righteous over all people. Because only those that are lead by the Spirit of God are the children of God.

Sure, it is good to be humble, but someone who is too wise in their own ways will not be humble. Paul was an educated man, but he had to be humbled first before he could be trained to do the will of the Lord. It was written to lean not to you own understanding, and to, in all your ways, acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths.

Again, these children do not need school. So much pressure is put on these people to say that if they don't comprehend things as well as others they have no hope. This is the lie my friend. God can very well teach them an even greater knowledge, the knowledge of Jesus Christ. Indeed he did use uneducated men to preach his gospel. Do I say that Paul was educated? He was educated after the ways of the law and the Pharisees, but he was very uneducated concerning the Lord, as were all the other Pharisees who were responsible for the Lord's death. And God can give a baby understanding of physics and much more, from the womb if he so desired to. But a greater knowledge is the knowledge of the kingdom. May Jesus bless you.

without education it wont be fine !
Without school he will be just fine in the Lord. The Lord might just use him to confound the wise, because of the marvelous things the Lord will do in his life. It is wise to become a fool so that one may become wise in Christ Jesus, and it is foolish to become wise with this worlds wisdom, and perhaps, thereafter becoming a fool with God. May Jesus bless you.

Ok your view of the Children of the lord is flawed my friend. Why would God not love the people he created? But yes you are correct in saying that when a man becomes to wise in his own eyes then God must humble him. And yes he can give a baby knowledge of physics from the womb but your view of Christianity, from what i have heard you say, seems very passive. which is wrong because God requires us to work at our faith we can not depend on God to just give us what we want we have to work. Believing that God will just educate us because we are christian is wrong. God does give gifts and perform miracles but only those who deserve it not just because we are Christian.

The children of the Lord are those who obey the Lord. Indeed, he loves all of his creation, but not all are his children, many are children of Satan, and his fruit do show themselves in them. Some people might say that everyone is a child of God, and thus everyone will make it into heaven. And this is not true at all.

If people depended more on God than on their own brain some people might actually find that the Lord God could have shown them the cures and the answers long before. But now, why would Satan want this to happen? My friend, if you want to lean unto your own understanding and to the corrupt understanding of men, concerning EVERYTHING then that will be you. But this message is to those who will put ALL their trust in the Lord. Jesus came to show a new way, and everyone that follows in that way is wise. It is the only wisdom from heaven.

May Jesus bless you.

That's incorrect actually. All are GOD's children.
When GOD created Satan, HE granted Satan the power to change HIS creations, but Satan can't create people. If he can't create people, he is not the father of those people. GOD is.
You can follow Satan but that doesn't neccessarily mean that he's your father. He didn't create you so he can't be.

I konw it's off topic, just thought I should clarify.
