The following is one of my favorite quotes by General William Booth, Founder of the Salvation Army.
"Think of the possibility of raising a multitude of men and women whose bodies have never been poisoned by vicious indulgences, whose minds have been enlightened and filled with the principles of divine truth from their infancy, and whose hearts, from their earliest days, have been inspired with the love of Christ and possessed with the one supreme ambition to GLORIFY THE FATHER, DETHRONE THE DEVIL, DESTROY SIN, AND SAVE THE WORLD!"
God has given to parents a great vision and purpose. We haven't got time for lesser things. We have a world to influence with glorious gospel of Jesus Christ as we prepare our children for their destiny.
