Sunday School lessons?......

So, the other day we were sitting around and someone discovered this book that Syl's parents used to read to her. The book is called, Stories for the Children's Hour, by Kenneth Taylor. WOW! It is amazing and shocking at the same time how we have been socialized into the kind of Christianity we have come to know,.... and run from.

Here is the final paragraph to one of the stories called, When Mitzi Didn't Obey Her Mother, "Boys and girls, when we disobey our mothers and fathers it does not mean that we will always get sick. But it does always mean that the Lord Jesus is sorry, and that He will have to take away from us some good thing when we get to Heaven, something that we might have had if we had been obedient. Always remember that Jesus wants obedient children."

The author omitted his Bible reference for this moral, but I am sure he had one,..... where is that verse about conditional forgiveness?

I think heaven is going to be pretty barren for me.

Peace,

K
