“The future of the
church society is in the hands of the youth and children of today “
It is by the youth and children of today that the future
of society is to be determined, and what these youth and children shall be depends
upon the home. To the lack of right home training may be traced the larger share
of the disease and misery and crime that curse humanity. If the home life were pure
and true, if the children who went forth from its care were prepared to meet life's
responsibilities and dangers, what a change would be seen in the world!

Jesus gave us clear instruction as to the importance of our young people when He
said, "And whosoever shall receive one such little child in my name receive me ...
Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That
in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven"
(Matt. 18:5,10).
When His disciples would have sent the young people away, thinking that they were
interrupting the important work of the Master, Christ said "Let them come ... for
such is the kingdom of heaven" (Matt. 19:14). Teenagers form a precious, most important
part of God's church. They are not only the "church of the future," but also the
church of the present.
Christ created the church to be a fellowship where people share in a common purpose
and help one another grow in faith. The New Testament describes the church as "...
his body, the fullness of him who filleth every thing in every way" (Eph.
1:22
). God calls us into His body for the purpose
of establishing a saving relationship with Him and supportive
community
with one
another.
