Man Forgets Easily

Judges 1 & 2

Inspired thots

After Joshua died, the current generation of Israel walked obediently with the Lord; but they failed in ONE important aspect... they did not TEACH God's laws to their NEXT generation. Hence, in 2:10 it says that "after that whole generation had been gathered to their fathers, another generation grew up, who knew neither the Lord nor what he had done for Israel."  (v11) "Then the Israelites did evil in the eyes of the Lord and served the Baals."

So sad! The PARENTS of the current generation did not perform their godly obligation ~ Deut 6:7 "Impress them (God's laws)  on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up."

Hence, today we have post-modernism where the younger generation is allowed to CHOOSE what they feel is right for themselves but it is a deviation from God's ways ~ Eternal life! What would we choose? What should we have our children choose? What should our children's children choose?
