Family The Problem: - There is a planned effort to destroy society’s most important structure - the family. More and more American families are becoming dysfunctional.
The Cause: - Fathers have been ostracized and therefore not in the home.
- The no-fault divorce law was passed and now divorce has run-amuck.
- The government has more and more usurped the authority and rights of the parents.
- Extended families are scattered across the country and not in communication with each other.
- The public education system is incorporating immoral social programming into its curriculum.
- Drugs, both illegal and pharmaceutical, are destroying the minds of many of our youth and some adults.
- The promiscuous sex revolution has caused a cheating, deceptive lifestyle.
- Men marrying men and women marrying women.
- The legal and political system has more influence over the family than the Church.
- Financial strain on the family unit to the extent that both parents must work outside the home to make ends meet.
- Business as usual on Sunday leaves no family day and minimizes attending Church services as a family.
Possible Solutions: - Reestablish the Father’s authority and responsibility as the head of the household.
- Remove divorce from the domain of the destructive legal system and return it to the reconcilable hands of the Church where it started.
- Abolish the no-fault divorce laws.
- Encourage an atmosphere for the Mother to be in the home for school age children.
- Discipline within the family on social, financial, and health issues.
- Study and apply the life of Jehonadab, the greatest Dad in the Bible, II Kings 10:15-31.
- Re-instate the blue laws to stop business as usual on Sunday.
- Permit marriage only between one man and one woman.
- Unite organizations which have common family concerns and influences
