He must not be ashamed to hear his training called odd and strange. What if it is? The time is short—the customs of this world are passing away. He that has trained his children for heaven, rather than for the earth—for God, rather than for man—he is the parent that will be called wise in the end.”
(19th century preacher)

“A
true Christian must not be a slave to what’s currently ‘in-fashion,’ if
he wants to train his child for heaven. He must not be content to teach
them and instruct them in certain ways, merely because it is customary,
or to allow them to read books of a questionable sort, merely because
everybody else reads them, or to let them form bad habits, merely
because they are the habits of the day. He must train with an eye to his
children’s souls. He must not be ashamed to hear his training called
odd and strange. What if it is? The time is short—the customs of this
world are passing away. He that has trained his children for heaven,
rather than for the earth—for God, rather than for man—he is the parent
that will be called wise in the end.” - J.C. Ryle 1860 - See more at:
