Another wonderful Ray Comfort book August 9, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Ray Comfort's message is consistently that true conversion is the result of the person understanding their need for a savior because they've trangressed God's law. This book is a wonderful resource for parents wanting to help their children learn that truth. I highly recommend this book and any book written by Ray Comfort.
One of the most important books a parent can read. February 20, 2008

The information covered in this book is so incredibly vital to your future, your children's future, and your nations future. You must read it or at least listen to the CD. I believed in God since I can remember, and I thought I was a Christian. It turns out I only had an intellectual belief which did not last through high school. Like 88% of children raised in an evangelical Christian home, I fell away from church, the Bible and God in high school. I was a false convert, and if I had died in my first 4 years of my military service, I would have gone to hell. No doubt about it. Please read this book or buy it for someone who has or will have children or who works with children. (a pastor, sunday school teacher, nursery worker, school teacher, nun, priest, etc.). There is nothing more important than being in a right relationship with our heavenly Father through Jesus Christ and knowing our eternal destination. Your children's souls are of infinite value. Take the time to read this and apply it.
A must-read for all Christian parents October 20, 2007
"We don't understand how our son John could be living such a wicked life! We raised him in church and did everything right!" Ever hear these words uttered by godly parents in your church? The sad fact is that they probably DID do most things right -- except lead little Johnny to genuine salvation. As Ray Comfort emphasizes in this small book, bringing your children to Christ (and keeping them there) involves far more than a "sinner's prayer" at age four.
Those already familiar with Comfort's ministry will recognize his message here. Most of the book focuses on teaching your children about God's Law to bring conviction of sin so that they will recognize that they are guilty before God and need a Savior. As in most of his other works, Comfort uses the Ten Commandments to show that we are indeed individually guilty of sinning against God's holy Law. Only when we realize this can we repent and humbly accept the free gift of salvation through Christ.
What's different in this book is that Comfort shows how to communicate these truths on a child's level, often suggesting helpful visual aids and object lessons. For example, how do you sensitively tell a young child what it means to commit adultery? Comfort also warns about the dangers of prematurely leading a child to "salvation", since children usually want to please Mommy & Daddy and can easily be manipulated into doing something they don't understand (producing the "false conversion" of the book's subtitle). His do's and don't's are very practical.
The rest of the book deals with other fairly basic guidelines for raising godly kids, such as:
**Making sure our lives back up what we say (since children are very sensitive to hypocrisy),
**Guarding against worldly influences -- sinful entertainment, wrong friends, and the humanistic indoctrination of public schools (AMEN!),
**Having daily family devotions,
**Warning your kids about the dangers of alcohol, smoking, and immorality, and
**Letting your kids observe your concern for the lost.
There are other great books on Christian child rearing that go into much more detail, but this little classic is foundational. I firmly believe that God is powerfully using Ray Comfort to call the church back to true biblical evangelism. I highly recommend this book -- it would make a great gift for any believing parents-to-be!
What a Great Read for Christian Parents! July 5, 2007

I enjoyed this book, because it showed me how to make sure that my precious children are truly saved. There are a lot of good examples on how to teach each of the 10 commandments in it, as well. This book will help you raise your children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. I highly recommend it.
Great book! March 9, 2007

This is a great book for parents who wish to bring up their kids biblically! The problem with children is because of Syndrome Infantile Negativity (S.I.N.) and not because of ADHD. The book is clear and concise, and offers a lot of real examples that Ray has applied in his own family. If you want to train your children in a godly way, buy this book!
