Total acceptance of children (coming from total submission)

Many parents think they love their children. Most do not, by the biblical standard of love. Love is acceptance, but how do you get there? Total submission to children leads to total acceptance. The doctrine of mutual submission is God's plan for parents and children.

Every single parent and adult is guilty in relation to children, and is deserving of DEATH and DESTRUCTION merely for existing in relation, with parents being meek and shamefaced in relation to children for their depraved sin nature. Parents and adults are to prioritize the needs of children above their own, to the point of dutiful and selfless surrender and submission to the child's every vulnerable need from above, and children resting securely in the unconditional Christian love of parents, with this love being denoted by the Greek root word αγαπαο (Latin: agapao). Parents are to sacrifice for their children in the spirit that Christ sacrificed for His children. See Colossians 3:20-21 KJV:

Children, obey your parents in all things: as this is well pleasing unto the Lord. Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.

The Greek root word translated "obey" is υπακουο (Latin: hupakouo) and refers to secure, vulnerable rest in the love and grace of parents. Attachment parenting was the norm in biblical times, with children up until adulthood wrapped up in swaddling blankets, held close to the bosom of mothers, with children going completely in the nude wherever they were, with children soaking up much skin-to-skin closeness with mothers. Children were weaned from mother's breastmilk at age 3, and before then were treated as infants, with the terrible twos being seeing simply as a child crying out for love.

The Greek root word translated "provoke...to anger" is ερεθιζο (Latin: erethizo) and refers to provocations to anger, as defined as the slightest of personal offenses perceived by the child. This commandment was intended by the Apostle Paul as a prohibition on all form of punitive parenting, including any form of punishment and control such as spanking and corporal punishment. This verse was intended as a rebuke to Greek Christians who held onto the pagan ritual of spanking children, which they justified with Scripture in the book of Proverbs. The seven texts in the book of Proverbs that mention the rod of correction are repealed verses, as they refer to a dated legal punishment - the 40 minus 1 lashes with the rod of correction. Only ADULT children received the rod of correction from parents, and only when convicted of a criminal offense as adjudicated in a court of law. Minor children in the Old Testament could not be charged with any criminal act or civil wrong, as parents were to apologize in court for their mistakes, perhaps with their life if the child committed criminal offenses. No capital or corporal punishment existed in the Early Christian church communities. 

Very few adults accept children, but those who fully accept children are silent and shamefaced in relation to children. Child acceptance is a silent endeavor, where you are shut up by the Lord for being non-entitled at the parent level. It is the attitude that you are entitled to nothing from children, but grateful for all the undeserving trust and care that they show you, for a child has the right to leave their parents and other adults in the dust, driving them aground and forgetting about them, striking them with fear of alliances, convicting them with their pro-social alienation. We few non-entitled adults are shut up by the Lord, for a child owes us nothing, and we owe them everything we can towards them. Adults abstain. Children self-protect. The role of children is to righteously terrorize, and the role of adults is to be struck with terror, tip-toeing, towing the line to please children, living in constant reverent fear and terror, but not complaining one bit. One cry from a child should be petrifying enough to strike reverent terror in the hearts of adults, drawing them in, issuing lawful and binding orders as to their needs, shutting up adults as to any resistance and defiance to the Divine Authority that is the child's needs. God shows Himself in the most vulnerable of human beings.

The depraved and entitled parents who provoke children to anger will not inherit the Kingdom of God! Let them burn in the lake of fire and burning sulfur, which is the second death prepared for Satan and his accomplices! Let them descend into the Hell of fire and torment, suffering God's Wrath for all eternity! Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!
