I think public school vs home school really depends on the child. The problem with this of course is that you don't know which one would help them succeed more.

[@DAN007thefoxx1]

I believe that pub ed was a disaster for successful kids all across the board. They don't teach actual useful skills you WOULD use in your day to day life for the most part. I barely understand how to do taxes, have no idea how to get a mortgage, or any of that. But thank the Lord above we all know how to do the Pythagorean Theorem and know that leaves are green because of a chemical called ChLoRoPhIlL! (Ok I would at least know how to start a fire without matches or change a tire if I had to. But I was never taught that in school)

[@ethanmoon3925]

Homeschooling is all about choosing good curriculum. My mom was not "a doctor or scientist or something", we were homeschooled because we are the fundamentalists you make fun of, but we love you. But the curriculum was rigorous and prepared us well for college. And we were taught secular objections to the faith, and how to answer them. Whether your child is in public school or homeschool, YOU will have to teach your kids the things that matter yourself.

[@thomasc9036]

I believe he is referring to two main positions. There are subset to each views. For the communication purposes, he just mentioned two generic views.

[@spiffygonzales5160]

This might be sort of a non answer... But I think the best way to view it is that God gives what gifts he will to who he will. Even as a protestant I believe Joan of Arc was given visions from God. I think most people who think they have gifts don't. Like.... the vast majority....overwhelming majority even. But I do think God works miracles into people's lives in both subtle and obvious ways.

[@thomasc9036]

@@spiffygonzales5160 That's not what the Cessationism vs Continuationalism debate is. There are two types of miracles/wonders. The first type is God's direct miracles like the flood, the resurrection of Jesus, 10 Plagues, or Sarah's pregnancy. God works these miracles to direct the world. No "true" Christians debate this other than Christian Liberalism which isn't even Christianity. The second type is the Supernatural portion of the Spiritual Gifts defined in passages like 1 Corinthians 12:1-31 or Romans 12:6. This type of wonders is the debate between two sides. The Spiritual Gifts are given to build up the church. Your point of about Joan of Arc is not a Spiritual Gift performed by a person. If it is true, then it falls under the first type. Does that help?

@@thomasc9036 I didn't know that so I appreciate the info. But I'm more saying that God does what he does. So if a person gets gifts from God cool and if another person doesn't, also cool. Like I said it's a non answer.

My advice to you RZ, raise your kids in a midwest state. send them to public school but send them to public school in a state where the public schools are both well funded and the kids are typically raised going to Sunday school at the local Lutheran or Presbyterian Church.

[@sentinel929]

I appreciate your careful pondering of all these issues. Really thought provoking. Here are where I fall on the issues, feel free to disagree or ask questions! 1. Continuationism 2. No to Apostolic Succession 3. I Homeschool 4. Completely forgot about headcoverings! at this point, no opinion. 5. Grape juice is fine for Communion. Ok, a bit more on each if you want to read: 1. I grew up with lots of Miracles and demonic in Africa, to deny that entirely would require some impressive explaining of my childhood. On the FLIP side however, I grew up with a lot of AG influence, and so 1 Corinthians 14 was a MAJOR shock when I read it as an adult... 2. I just don't want to limit God to a methodology if it isn't defined in Scripture, that being said, I think Apostolic succession is helpful in just discernment in general. Random Bob starting a random church isn't automatically wrong, but it is a red flag. Random Bob not having ANY sort of connection (or heaven forbid a negative relationship) with the longer standing elders in a community is a huge red flag! 3. I could write a book about why I homeschool over Public, just a few major points are: it's a better education, it's more well-rounded, socializing as a child with a diverse spectrum of ages is a benefit to everyone, and so many more reasons. I absolutely understand the reasoning of my kids being "salt" and "light" to public schools and more socializing with their immediate peers, but to me those benefits are hardly enough to sway me. Also, I just have to be intentional in finding other ways my kids can socialize with their peers. 5. A study found that grape juice off the shelf can have up to 0.086% Ethanol. Despite our pasteurization and preservatives. Grapes start fermenting really quickly after being pressed, so unless you go out of your way to remove it, grape juice will have alcohol. It's silly to say Biblical character didn't drink wine, as they would have had to miraculously remove the alcohol from their drinks. But it's also silly to say Grape juice isn't acceptable for Communion, as you are really just nitpicking percentages and modern definitions....

[@BoondockBrony]

Here's my two cents on apostolic succession. There's some leeway you need to have with it if you're a protestant if you are a strict complementarian and going high church. Most magisterial Protestantism now has some level of women being ordained and this is especially if women can become bishops. Otherwise you will see as most priests as invalid in some places, I think it's Norway I think that has more women clergy than men for example. Also not all Lutherans have episcopal polity some sects do, some don't so even *if* you have a conservative Lutheran church in the LCMS chances are if you are strict on apostolic succession guess what? Nothing is valid since some were not ordained by a bishop that was an episcopal leader. Biggest thing I noticed with some Romanists and EOs who look into protestantism is this issue, there's not many of them who go high church but there's enough you can see the issues they have.

i agree with this!! i love how being the bride of Christ also points to the veil. Christ is the head and we are the body. i think of the veil as Christ over our heads, offering us protection. the husband is the head over the wife bc Christ is over the man. so i kinda look at it like that :) also, i like how it shows that by wearing the veil we are separated from the world and belong to Christ. it it's a symbol of modesty and humility to Christ. so i just think it's really sweet. i don't think it's a command in the way it was in that particular church due to prostitution going on then. i REALLY want to start veiling but i'm scared to. i don't want people to think i'm being legalist about it because it's NOT like that for me at all. i do feel that God has lead me to veiling, though. do you have any tips on how to start? i also would like to veil in church and outside of church :)

[@Grapefruit79]

[@madeleinebrett-matthewson71421]

@@Grapefruit79 having issues with something in the bible isn't an excuse not to do it. if people can choose to replace communion with grape juice because "i dont want alcohol" then why can't people enter homosexual marriages simply because "i don't like the other gender"? in either case, you're welcome to do both. but it's not biblical and actually goes against the bible. Jesus said that the WINE was His blood, not the grape juice. if you use grape juice you aren't receiving communion, you're receiving grape juice and false hope.

[@TheStarshipGarage]

People drink grape juice instead of wine as many people have a personal conviction not to drink alcohol due to knowing themselves or knowing people who have lost themselves to alcohol and do not wish to follow the same path (I am the latter), and other people simply aren't of age to drink, but still want to take communion. In my opinion, it doesn't matter what you do it with, the point is the reason WHY you are doing it.

My main quarrel with Charismatics and speaking nonhuman tongues is that many times these churches will say that if you can't speak in tongues that you aren't saved. Paul explains there is variety of gifts of the Spirit. Meanwhile 1st Corinthians 12:7-11 7 Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good. 8 To one there is given through the Spirit a message of wisdom, to another a message of knowledge by means of the same Spirit, 9 to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit, 10 to another miraculous powers, to another prophecy, to another distinguishing between spirits, to another speaking in different kinds of tongues,[a] and to still another the interpretation of tongues.[b] 11 All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he distributes them to each one, just as he determines.

I think the problem with public school is that it doesn't just expose kids to atheism and bad morals, but that it completely surrounds them with it. As a homeschooler, my parents didn't refuse to educate me about other worldviews, because you're correct. That just leads to leaving the faith as soon as you face even the most basic objections. So the best middle ground is to homeschool, but not shelter your kids from what non-Christians believe. Then they will have a firm grounding in truth and what others believe.

[@slumptrid]

as an Eastern Orthodox-inclined nondenominational, i also find myself questioning certain Eastern Orthodox beliefs, especially apostolic succession. on one hand, in Scripture, nearly every leader of a church was chosen specifically by the apostles, and every major church father in history can be traced back to the apostles. on the other hand, though, there not necessarily any specific verse in the Bible that describes the necessity of apostolic succession in order for a church to be capable of teaching true doctrine and leading people to salvation.

Richard, I would put myself in the Presby-costal category.

I have worked with them in the past with both the PCC (at Princeton Seminary) and PRMI (later in my ministry). Their material I have on my shelf is the best material on a Reformed perspective on the spiritual gifts I have ever run across. Thanks for this video. Keep up the good work, sir.

[@christopherflux6254]

On the Continuationist v Cessationist debate I didn’t have a choice because I was speaking in tongues as a new Christian BEFORE I even knew what it was or had even heard of it. I was on my own in prayer and these words started flowing out of my mouth. I told my Christian friends and they told me what it was. I am however still on the cautious end of the charismatic movement. Sometimes spiritual gifts can be abused or taken too far. I’ve never prayed in tongues loudly during a church meeting. I speak in tongues only in private or quietly under my breath, as I’ve never felt there is an interpretation available. My current church is both charismatic and Reformed, but doesn’t really lean that heavy into the charismatic side of things at present.

[@jackdullboy8723]

Out of those issues, I feel most qualified to talk on Homeschooling. When I was in highschool, I was a volunteer lobbyist in the Congressional Action Program (CAP) of the Home School Legal Defense Association (HSLDA). So I got to learn all kinds of things about the realities of homeschooling. One, that overall, homeschooled students out-perform Public Schoolers in every measurable scholastic category, even though a large number of homeschool parents chose to do so because their local public school couldn't adequately accommodate their special needs kid. On the other hand, due to stories of a few terrible parents who abuse their kids and take their kids out of public school to hide the evidence, many government representatives are reluctant to budge on insisting that every kid should be in public school. Your family is going to be unique. You'll have to make your choices based on your unique kids. Out of the 4 kids my Christian parents raised, the eldest was public schooled all the way to college, remained a strong Christian throughout, and has a stable loving family to this day. The second eldest went to the exact same schools, wound up in prison, abandoned Christianity, divorced, estranged from two of his three kids, and is now happily married to a second wife. I was the third and probably the most dangerous. Started a fire in my middle school. Was homeschooled starting halfway through my freshman year because both the local public schools I attended in the 1st and 2nd semester were completely swamped with drugs and warring gangs. Both in public and in homeschool, I was able to figure out how to game the system and do the absolute least amount of effort and still wind up with 4.0 GPA. Had WAY more friends in homeschooling than in public schools because I knew I didn't have to spend all my attention on simply surviving the gang wars when surrounded by students and faculty you can't trust. I don't want to think what kind of monster I would have wound up had I stayed. Questioned God all through public school and Christian homeschool, and the faculty of the conservative Christian college I attended had very weak "Take it on faith" answers to my questions. But eventually renewed my faith after a life threatening illness. The youngest of us was pretty much a perfect angel, homeschooled starting in the first year of middle school, and is now everybody's best buddy. Doesn't regret "missing out" on things like public showers after P.E. in the least. All this to say: there is no magic bullet. A kid's chances of making it to adulthood as a toughened special forces Christian taking the public school rout are probably pretty slim on average. Most people wind up resembling the people that surround them, public schooled or not. But every kid's unique. And so is every environment. Maybe your kids'll be the ones to chase the drugs and gangs out of your local public highschool. Or maybe they'll be little monsters that need the local public school kids' angelic influence to keep them from going off the rails. Best of luck figuring out the best fit for your unique circumstances. But if you wind up with a kid like I was... probably safest for all the other kids to you take him out of public schools.

Very interesting you brought up the NAR, I just started reading a book warning about what they do, and as a Pentecostal, it is very important to identify where you draw the line in continuationism, and honestly depends on the specific church that teaches it. Book is called Counterfeit Kingdom

[@nathanprindler]

To me the one about public schools is a no-brainer... I was homeschooled in a Liberal part of *Canada* and despite the shortcomings, especially now being 32 years old homeschooling 4 kids of my own, I wouldn't have it any other way. Even if you believe in institutional reform, it's absurd to think that *children* suitable warriors for the front line, especially when those children are depraved by nature, lol. It's a lot easier to not overshelter than people think; school actually limits your experiences, not just academically, but because it is not a reflection of most of the real world.

When it comes to speaking in tongues from my understanding it's one of two things; being given the gift of speaking in a different language or just an "angelic tongue" What I will say is I am not an interpreter of tongues but occasionally when people speak in tongues I recognize my own language (lingala) and I hear people say "Aza na yo" which means "He is with you" and "Yesu nzambe" which means "Jesus is God" so I genuinely believe the "gibberish" could be interpreted (if you have the gift) but some people don't have the gift and fake it. HOWEVER, I know someone once heard someone say "God is dead" in greek😐so it's 50/50

[@MRVIDEOMASTER-yw1qw]

As to your comments about public schools, I know it's a hard choice. I went to a non-denominational middle school (technically only 7-8) and it was a lot like you were saying. Sheltered kids, poor academics, an "atheist factory". But then I went to a Lutheran High School and it was amazing. I live in Nevada (which isn't known for it's schools), but my high school was regarded as the best school in Nevada. Amazing academics, pretty good (but not great athletics), superb arts, abounding in opportunities. You took a theology class each year (amazingly taught) and in your senior year you learned apologetics/how to logically argue for Christianity. My high school was FAR better funded, and I think of lot of the educational quality has to deal with that.

Homeschool is needed to build up strong believers who are ready to go and to battle with the world, to NOT retreat. You cannot expect that of children, absolutely not for kids below high school. Homeschool done right builds faith and prepares for the real world. Organizations like Stoa deliberately prepare them to answer the questions the world will ask. I agree that retreating is not the right call, but you don’t send your kids to the front lines.

[@JayRodMiNi]

I am totally in favor of homeschooling since learning about the roots of government schooling. I recommend reading John Taylor Gatto's books on the subject.

[@emilyfs2012]

Coming from a parent, never stop asking the public v homeschool question. Never settle down and get comfortable. Stay closely involved with your own kids. They might not all even need the same things, whether that's learning disabilities, differenr personalities, or depending on how spread out they are in age the schools themselves might change. From my perspective, the parents who've made the worst mistakes are the ones who made dogmatic choices and got comfortable and ignored the needs and progress (or lack thereof) of their actual kids. I do have values and guiding principles here that I weigh but I am keeping a close eye on my kids.

[@Faithfulfilled1]

I decided to do a new comment because I don’t like doing two unrelated comments under each other My dad is a Pentecostal, Pentecostalism is what brought me to the faith, and I still am a continuationist, but speaking in tongues is so weird to me, the way I understand tongues is that it’s a heavenly language. That’s besides the point, what does real worship look like? Because my church is one of the ones that has a whole band up front and sometimes a smoke machine, but only really when we do baptisms. They aren’t a megachurch by any stretch of the imagination, but I want to worship God, and watching you has made me realize lifting my hands on Sunday isn’t really worship (idk how to word this) so how do I worship God and should I find a new church or stay at the one in at?

[@jasonharris2291]

Worship is hearing God's word, then confessing it back, in prayer and song. Every denomination has a liturgy. How much of it is Scripture?

[@Faithfulfilled1]

@@jasonharris2291 I don’t know, I mean it’s not secular, there are a couple songs about specific verses, but it’s mostly just your run of the mill worship song you’d hear on a Christian radio

[@dariusojala]

There is nothing wrong with being enthusiastic about worshipping God! read david: Psalm 150:1-6 Praise the LORD. Praise God in his sanctuary; praise him in his mighty heavens. Praise him for his acts of power; praise him for his surpassing greatness. Praise him with the sounding of the trumpet, praise him with the harp and lyre, praise him with timbrel and dancing, praise him with the strings and pipe, praise him with the clash of cymbals, praise him with resounding cymbals. Let everything that has breath praise the LORD. Having a band and using instruments is not problematic, smoke machine and fancy lighting can be though, because it turns it more towards being a performance than just simple praise to God. The problem arises when enthusiasm and emotions in worship are manufactured, and equated with devotion. People worship and express praise to the Lord in different ways. Feeling something always has to come as a result of God's word and your love for him, not the other way around. Also, tongues is simply other languages, and I would be careful about the pentecostal doctrine of baptism of the holy spirit, and a lot of them also are on the verge of prosperity gospel/word of faith movement. God bless you

Speaking of schooling, I'm from Poland, which is generally considered to be 90+% catholic (not true btw, especially in my generation), and I've attended a catholic school. Not because it was catholic, but it was (and still sort of is) one of the best schools in our country. I'd say it's not true, that there is less secularism, and progressivism in catholic schools, I think 75% of people in my class were eighter atheist, or non-practising. The difference, however is in the fact, that people in my school were really open-minded, converstaion focused, and generally respectful. My best friend is an atheist, but we like and respect each other, and agree to disagree in questions of faith. I think that the better the school, the more intelligent the students, the more respectful and considerate the people will be. And I know there are a lot of disrespectful and inconsiderate people in my country

As for the last issue, the catholic church teaches the "fruit of the vine" need not to have alchohol, and that the bread contains both body and blood, so partaking in just the unleavened bread satifys the condtions set out for us in John 6:53. Those suffering from alcholism should not fear refraining from the cup. As for our teaching on the unleavened bread having both body and blood, it comes from 1 Cor 11:27 “Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of profaning the body and blood of the Lord."

[@henkgootjes4306]

Couple of points: I'm from Canada, one of the Reformed federations there. We maintain private Christian schools, and they prepared us very well for (among other things) further education in the secular post-secondary system. I actually also did a brief stint in a public school, and by comparison the education I had gotten in the private school was overall better. One of the nice things was that we are able to fold in classes on topics such as church history, which would otherwise likely end up neglected. My kid is going to start going to one of these school come September. As for the wine/grape juice thing, over the past couple of decades we've moved away from a communal cup to individual cuplets. Still not entirely sure how I feel about that... Anyway, most congregations that do it this way have the center being grape juice. That certainly resolves the issue for people like recovering alcoholics quite nicely. Oh, and when I was young we knew a family up the street who went to a Reformed federation even more conservative than the one I go to (hadn't thought that was possible, lol) and the women had to wear head coverings to church.

[@corkystorky]

1. Speaking in tongue has ceased, just as Paul said, and the one that shall remain is love. When Christ started building the church, it was like any other structure starting with the base, or foundation, then the beam or pillars attached to it (the apostles), and then by progression the blocks forming the walls (the members, 1Pe 2:5 you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.). The dynamics at the time was the need for the different gifts to address the need of the church upon its establishment, and one that was very needed was to bridge the communication gap. Also, the gifts convinced the people that the church was truly from God, as compared to looking at Judaism. What we see nowadays which they call speaking in tongues is nothing but jibberish babblings, murmurings that try to make the impression that they are given such gift, but till now, not one can testify that a foreigner received the gospel from their 'gift'. The one with the real gift of speaking in tongue should be able to speak the entire new testament to the foreign listener, verbatim, because that was the purpose of the tongue, just like the gift of healing is for the sick. The Holy Spirit gives that gift as per necessity. As per 'angelic language', remember that God sent angels to speak to men in the Old Testament, so claiming one speaking such is but presumptuous. Again, remember the building process, and I think towards the end times the remaining blocks are being put, with faith that the speaking of tongues in the early church really happened, and by faith such is not necessary today, as education and technology and dictionaries are better. By building process we should know that in modern times there would be no more 'apostles', as they were laid early on. Love would always be the manifestion of those in Christ, for he said, 'By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.' ... 2. Apostolic succession - the word of God, as spread by the apostles, are all that's needed. Remember Jesus said to Nicodemus, "Joh 3:8 The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit." If I'm an atheist, alone in the desert, never heard of church or any other religions, and by chance found a bible, read it, and convinced that there is God, that bible is enough because they were told by the apostles in writing, it is as if they're alive through the books, just as Jesus said to them, Mat 28:20 "...and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." Abraham said to the rich man in the afterlife, "Luk 16:29 Abraham replied, 'They have Moses and the Prophets; let them listen to them.'" The church fathers after the apostles were important in continuing the ministry, but just like in the days of Israel, there were good kings and bad kings after Solomon. The Lord always knew who are his. The roman catholic church can only attest to the succession, proving that the church is not something the popped into weird existence, for it has legit historical background, for some people even say that Jesus never existed, nor rose from the dead. ... 4. Head coverings for women - Paul did not preach on this matter based on culture, but by nature and history from Adam and Eve. Since Eve was made from Adam, God gave woman long hair for covering. This means men cannot have long hairs, and if a woman has short hair, they should put on some clothe to cover their head with as they pray. If that is how they taught the kingdom of God works, we shall simply abide by it and not make excuses for not doing so. It may seem a little thing, but Jesus said, Mat 5:19 "Anyone who breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do the same will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven." Paul said to Timothy, 1Ti 4:6 "If you point these things out to the brothers, you will be a good minister of Christ Jesus, brought up in the truths of the faith and of the good teaching that you have followed." ... 5. Grape juice or actual wine - Should be actual wine. Wine is a representation of maturity, of perfection. This is the will of the Father, and as Jesus commanded, Mat 5:48 "Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect." Jesus told a parable, "Mat 9:17 Neither do men pour new wine into old wineskins. If they do, the skins will burst, the wine will run out and the wineskins will be ruined. No, they pour new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved." This preservation is a testament of being sealed with the Spirit of God. The problem is people usually connote or associate wine with drunkenness, that the idea of using wine in sacrament becomes foul or invalid. Wine is supposed to have good health benefits, which you cannot achieve if you just drink grape juice. You see that if a man matures into spiritual perfection, he becomes useful to the edification of the church, "2Ti 2:21 If a man cleanses himself from the latter, he will be an instrument for noble purposes, made holy, useful to the Master and prepared to do any good work." (Perfection in the bible is not to be defined as the 'world' defines it, like making no mistakes, but perfection is about maturity, as in contrast to novice who still have sort of actions of unbelievers, and are prone to become conceited if promoted to a position in the church - (1Co 3:1-3) "Brothers, I could not address you as spiritual but as worldly--mere infants in Christ. I gave you milk, not solid food, for you were not yet ready for it. Indeed, you are still not ready. You are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and quarreling among you, are you not worldly? Are you not acting like mere men?", and, "1Ti 3:6 He must not be a recent convert, or he may become conceited and fall under the same judgment as the devil." The mature (perfect) have those of the qualities of a bishop or elder candidate (1Ti 3:2-5) "Now the overseer must be above reproach, the husband of but one wife, temperate, self- controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach, not given to drunkenness, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, not a lover of money. He must manage his own family well and see that his children obey him with proper respect. (If anyone does not know how to manage his own family, how can he take care of God's church?)" We must not miss what the elements in the sacraments are trying to teach us, like for the bread, it should not contain yeast, just as we should receive the Word of God without 'yeast, or additional teachings of men'. Wine should be the inspiration of what we're supposed to be. One should not disrespect or misuse the sacraments like eating the bread like breakfast and getting drunk on wine, (1Co 11:20-21) "When you come together, it is not the Lord's Supper you eat, for as you eat, each of you goes ahead without waiting for anybody else. One remains hungry, another gets drunk." --- I skipped the public school part, though I've been from public school myself, I personally saw no problem with matters of religion because I just go to school to study and pass the exams, and the kids were kind of polite.
