And you must commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these commands that I am giving you today. Repeat them again and again to your children.

Deuteronomy 6:6-7	You shall keep these things that I command you today in your heart. Teach them to your children.

Joshua 24:15	If it seems wrong to you to serve the Lord, then today you must choose whom you will serve, whether it be the gods that your fathers served on the other side of the river, or the gods of the Amorites who dwell in the land. As for me and my household, we will serve the Lord. family idols following

Such people are worse than unbelievers. 1 Timothy 5:8	And whoever does not provide for relatives, especially for those who are living with him, has disowned the faith and is worse than an unbeliever. family relationships children
