Puberescent Boys - Handle With Care

< # >

When Christ, Culture, Physical Body, And Social Pressure Collide !

It Takes MORE Than Rules To Survive Pure Or Even Want To Be Obedient

-

                                                       We Used To Sing A Little Song:

-

God said it

And I believe it

And that's good enough for me.

-

But When We Hit Puberty It Suddenly Becomes:

-

                                                                       God said it.

                                                    But that's not good enough for me!

-

God's Plan, God's Good Enough,

Is Not Good Enough For Us Men - What ??

-

We must not be doing

                                                                     something right.

-

Our God is not good enough ??

Not strong enough ??

Not helpful enough ??

Where does that reality come from ??

-

Scripture indicates that when we fall

We need Discipline - i.e., training.

-

Training is God's answer to sin.

-

(We are assuming here that there is in place a genuine personal love toward God.)

-

An athlete does not become good enough without training.

A corporate officer does not become good enough without training.

A doctor does not become good enough without training.

A skilled trades worker does not become good enough without training.

-

No worker becomes good enough without training.

-

God does not become good enough without training - uh, WHAT ?

! ! !

          God is good enough or he is not God !!!

-

   Men cannot become good enough

without training !!

Boys cannot be prepared to     

     handle puberty without a lot of

multi-disciplinary training !!

TRAIN Up A Boy!

-

Training Usually Majors On The Process Required To

Be Strong Enough To Win.

Training Usually Minors On Rules And Never Isolates The Do's And

Don'ts From The Preparation And Conditioning Need For Those Rules To Become Nearly Instinctual.

TRAIN Up A Boy!

The Words of Our Heavenly Father:

-

Bind them upon your heart forever;

fasten them around your neck.

When you walk, they will guide you;

when you sleep, they will watch over you;

when you awake, they will speak to you.

-

For these commands are a lamp,

this teaching is a light,

and the corrections of discipline

                                 are the way to life,

keeping you from the immoral woman,

from the smooth tongue of the wayward wife.

-

Do not lust in your heart after her beauty

or let her captivate you with her eyes,

for the prostitute reduces you to a loaf of bread,

and the adulteress preys upon your very life.

-

Can a man scoop fire into his lap

without his clothes being burned?

Can a man walk on hot coals

without his feet being scorched?

-

So is he who sleeps with another man's wife;

no one who touches her will go

                                        unpunished.

                                                                                             -
