Christian Homes & Communities are Distinctive

Distinctive because we’ve turned over authority of our Homes to The Lord.
Distinctive on the inside.
Because the Lord builds the house. If he doesn’t we are just spinning our wheels and laboring in vain. We are depending on Him for everything we have and giving back to Him a portion of all we have.
That makes us Distictive! Unique! You and I are here today because our Christian walk drives us to carve out several hours every week to dedicate to the Lord and His Work.
PING PONG BALLS
v.1 “Unless the Lord guards the city,
The watchman keeps awake in vain.”
The best cities are those where there are common values and the people police themselves. The police forces of America are outnumbered and outgunned if we throw of our values and moorings
Distinctively Peaceful & Satisfied

What happens in the home is Definitive.

• Children should get the essentials
• Parents must be authoritatively taut.

Children should leave our homes Decisive

• Children should Respect their Parents.

87:2 Court proceedings, social interaction, and commercial transactions normally took place in the city gates (Ru 4:1–2; Jb 29:7–10; Pr 24:7). The Lord reinforced Jerusalem as the preferred location for his sanctuary.

• Children should take flight sharp
and Useful and Helpful to the parents.
Like arrows for a warrior, children were useful in the agricultural society. The man who had many children also enjoyed respect in Near Eastern society (on city gate, see note at 87:2).
