This is what she knows thus far:
Anna, who made you?God.
Anna, why did God make you?
Glory.
Anna, what else did God make?
All things!
Why did he make all things?
Glory.
This is the next question in the children's catechism, but she cannot do this one yet..
Anna, what rule has God given to glorify and enjoy him?
The Bible
She also knows that we read and pray daily and that before meals she has to give thanks to God for his provisions. "Pray, papa, pray."
In her little Sunday school class she is learning things as well. She is learning the Lord's prayer. (She has difficulty saying it but she can repeat some of it.) She is also learning a couple of the Psalters that we sing in church on a regular basis. She can recognize the tunes and will lip along, but does not know the words yet.
She is also learning that Papa is an infralapsarian and that her Mother is a supralapsarian. (See marriages of differing religious backgrounds can work out!)

I am not supra. Not that it matters....
Don't think that meal is the norm. She never gets juice. This just happens to be leftover from her party. :)
Juice= Fat kids.
All in moderation......
You are a heathen Supra Woman!
What are Supra and Intra?
Click the name
PREVENTOR OF TRUTH DECAY and you will find a nice break down of the distinctions of the theological debate.
thanks
Who cares? God is not going to separate us by denomiation or theological preference when we get to heaven. Can't all Christians just get along and be one big happy family?
Who cares how well one knows their spouse. Its not like getting to know them any better will mean that they are more married.
Is the purpose of the Christian life to get to heaven or to know and enjoy God for who he is?
Also, don't believe for a second that Anna is actually going to EAT that yummy food. She will take a few bites and feed the rest to the dogs when mama's not looking.
This is scary.
What is scary? Training children, prayer, eating food, drinking juice, or supralapsarianism?
ANYMOUSE.....Do you believe that "God will not seperate us in heaven?" Consider the size of the planet.It's possible there may be seperations, some of which will be based on "works".What God expects or requires of us is ever changing as we grow. Walking through life in connection with heaven is what I'm working on now.
