How can we account for this state of things? The plain truth is that the Lord’s commandment in our text is not regarded, and therefore, the Lord’s promise in our text is not fulfilled. These things may well give rise to great searchings of heart. Pay attention, then, to a word of exhortation from a minister about the right training of children. Believe me, the subject is one that should touch every conscience and make everyone ask himself the question, “Am I doing what I can in this matter?”
