GENESIS - beginning
"the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him; Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created."
"the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body."
"This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church"
BIBLICAL LEADERSHIP
If Discipline creates disciples are our children our first disciples?
"If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom a father does not chasten?"
The family was created before the church. Is the church based on the family?
One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity; For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?
"My mother and my brothers are those who hear the word of God and do it." Jesus looks carefully at his audience and includes them in His family
#CANNOT
"whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple" - JESUS
"the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables."
God places lonely people in families. He leads prisoners out of prison into productive lives, but rebellious people must live in an unproductive (condition) land.
