Bacaan tahunan: Isaiah 37-39; Psalm 76

"How come, huh? When parents are not so. " You've probably heard the expression so when young children are considered to be not following the example of his parents. For example, the father of the pastor, but the children ensnared drugs; the Sunday school teacher mother, but the child mast uproar. Herankah You? Or you wont see a similar phenomenon?
While observing the tenth paragraph, you might as well ask, "How can, huh?" Isn't the verse 7 notes that throughout the life of Joshua and the elders of his house, ever faithful to the nation Israel worship God? How can the force after they no longer know God? We do not know for sure the process, but as a result recorded clear: formed a new generation who did evil in the eyes of God, worshipping another deity turned (vv. 11-13). Therefore, God's wrath and submit them into the hands of enemies (v. 14). Likely, Deuteronomy 6: 4-9 are no longer applied consistently by the parents.

From the heart that knows and loves the Lord, will be born an attitude of worship to him.
