We welcome you now to a true church perspective with Pastor G. Craig Lewis.

In our society, many seek their identity in things of the world.

First John 2 and 15 says, love not the world, meaning don't get your identity from the world.

Neither get it from the things that are in the world.

If any man love the world,

the love of the father is what? Oh, you're only going to, you're going to get your identity

from two places. The father or the world. Period. Your earthly father is there as a model to

show you how to get identity from your heavenly father.

When your father is not present, it's going to be a little harder, but you can still get your identity from God. Amen? You can still get it from him. It's going to be harder,

but you can still do it.

Got a whole lot of testimonies of that right in here without proper upbringing or a good set of values

people begin and you know i teach this stuff because you can't just willy-nilly get mad and divorce

that's that's what causes that you thinking that you and her couldn't get along and you're going to sit the child down and explain to the child why mom and daddy aren't going to be living together no more.

Like the child is going to even have any frame of reference of what you're talking about. Well, you see, mommy's got her house now and daddy has his house. And we're not going going to be together but we still love you the same

but in the in the child's mind you know what the child hears daddy doesn't like you as much as

mommy because mommy's going to be here and daddy's not and that's just a up it's a setup to put something in the child so when they get older

they don't trust heavenly father because they couldn't trust earthly father

can i preach the truth in here?

Amen.

Without proper upbringing a good or a good set of values, people begin to search for their

purpose in things that are harmful to others.

That's the difference.
