1ºCNN…why didn’t you write about how Scottie was shamed and humiliated by his mother? She made him wear a t-shirt with “I’m a liar”, “I hurt my brother”, and “cheat” on it that was written on the shirt in black marker. Then, to top it off she made him take a picture of himself wearing it!! He looked like he had been crying in the photo. Then, even though they had other photos to provide to the police, they sent them the humiliating picture to post to the media. This type of parenting is emotionally and psychologically destabilizing and can be considered abuse!! I’m glad Scottie was found safe and I’m even more glad that he has been placed in another home by children’s services!!
2ºBruce Luong However, Bruce, in my experience it's seldom children who need to discipline their parents, but parents who need to discipline their kids. This is probably why God says honor your father and mother. For instance when was the last time a kid had to stop his folks from throwing eggs at the neighbors windows, hiding dirty magazines under the mattress, leaving their socks all over the floor, not bath, refuse to get out of bed until noon, leave the toilet seat up, but you're right the tables can sometimes be turned, and that's God assures us in Psalms 27:10 "When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up. 11 Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies." In Jesus, amen.
3ºLeah Sonne Teaching children that, “God protects his children,” is wildly dangerous and is not doing children any justice in this world. If that were the case, so many children would not die for so many unnecessary reasons. Children wouldn’t die from abuse and neglect from the very people who are supposed to love and keep them safe. Children wouldn’t die due to the failure of mental health care in this country. Children wouldn’t die from strangers who abduct them and do them harm. Please do right by children and teach them instead to be aware of their surroundings and to reach out for help if they need it.
4º*Did you know you’re part of the ultimate statistics, 10 out of 10 people die. One day your heart will stop beating and you will be dead! The Bible says you’ll then be judged by the holy and righteous God who created this universe.(Hebrew 9:27)You’ll be judged for every word, thought, and action in your life.(Matthew 12:36-37) Will you be innocent or guilty?
*Let’s check the standard, the Ten Commandments. Have you ever lied (even a “white” lie)? (Revelation 21:8) Have you ever stolen anything (value is irrelevant and includes downloading or copying movies illegally)? If you’ve lusted, you’ve committed adultery in your heart. (Matthew 5:27-30) (1 Corinthians 6:9-10)
If you’ve hated someone, the Bible says you’re a murderer(1 John 3:15). If you’ve done any of these things, you will be guilty, and end up in Hell. God is perfect and He hates sin, but He sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to die on the Cross to take the punishment you deserve. Then He rose from the graves after three days – defeating death. (Luke 24:46-48)
Repent (turn from your sins) and trust in Jesus Christ our Lord and saviour to receive forgiveness and everlasting life afterlife here on earth without pain, suffering and death anymore (revelation 21:4) God cannot Lie He is holy, Righteous and just cannot tolerate Sin(Hebrew 6:18) if you don’t believe in God you are making God a liar. Think about it.
Do you think God cannot preserve His words ? He created the heaven and the earth and the sea all living things here on earth including human.
. Read the Bible to learn about God and how to live. (Acts 20:21)
*Do God’s will, plan and purpose in your life; these are above and beyond, immeasurable compare to your grandest dream.
* We obey God’s moral law the Ten Commandments because we love our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ, the Father and the Holy Ghost(John 14:15) (John 14:1-6) (John 14:16-26) (Mark 12:30-31) with all our heart, soul, mind and all our strength, and we believe and have faith in Him; also we Fear Him with reverence with deep respect.

* Let’s seek the Lord and His face also His strength, power, wisdom and discernment in our daily lives.
We need God’s help to overcome Sin in our lives. And live a holy life in the eyes of the Living God.
God will help us if we seek Him diligently with all our heart, soul, mind and all our strength .
Put on always the full armour of God (Ephesians 6:10-18)

Therefore my heart greatly rejoices,
And with my song I will praise Him.
