Lo Que La Bíblia Enseña Acerca De Como Disciplinar A Los Hijos: Criar con Confianza - Paperback

by Pedro Gomez (Translator), Valerie Benavidez (Editor), Melissa Evers (Illustrator)

This is an excellent Spanish language translation of the popular English book, What the Bible Says About Child Training. The English version of this book has been used for over 30 years by thousands of Christian parents world-wide to successfully "Train up a child in the way he should go." What the Bible Says About Child Training is a study designed to help parents better understand their role and to reveal the mechanics for successfully raising children. To accomplish these ends it will carefully define parental authority, accountability, and responsibility. It also describes the nature of a child and explains his Biblically-defined stages of development. With these principles firmly established, the book presents the Scriptural system for training children. This system is divided into two distinct phases, controlling and teaching. *The control phase is the establishment of the parents' right of rulership over the will of the child. When parents can control their children, they have laid the necessary foundation for the fulfillment of the Biblical commandment for children to obey their parents and can then be taught. *The teaching phase of training children can only be accomplished by parents who have first trained their children to obey. This is because, before a child will receive the instructions of his parents, he must first respect their word; and before he will respect their word, he must first become obedient. The following is this book's Prologo written by its traductor, PEDRO G MEZ: Todo aquel que viene a m , y oye mis palabras y las hace, os indicar a qui n es semejante. Semejante es el hombre que al edificar una casa, cav y ahond y puso el fundamento sobre la roca; y cuando vino una inundaci n, el r o dio con mpetu contra aquella casa, pero no la pudo mover, porque estaba fundada sobre la roca. (Lucas 6:47, 48) Las palabras arriba citadas son una singular y solemne advertencia de nuestro amante Se or para su pueblo. Cada cristiano es responsable de cavar, ahondar y poner el fundamento sobre la s lida roca de la Palabra de Dios. Hacer esto es la nica garant a de estabilidad para nuestras vidas en general y para cada uno de sus aspectos en particular. En d as en que, por desgracia, el pueblo de Dios est siendo muchas veces seducido por el falso brillo del humanismo, y especialmente predispuesto a aceptar las respuestas pseudocient ficas de la psicolog a, se hace vitalmente necesario buscar respuestas s lidamente b blicas. Ciertamente Dios ha provisto su preciosa revelaci n a fin de que el hombre de Dios sea perfecto, enteramente preparado para toda buena obra. La Biblia tiene mucho que decir acerca de la disciplina de los hijos, pues el deseo de nuestro Dios es que la familia sea un lugar de orden, bendici n y realidad espiritual. En lugar de esto la familia cristiana es, lamentablemente, demasiadas veces un lugar para la tensi n, el desorden y la confusi n. El principal y valioso m rito de este libro es su acercamiento al tema desde un punto de vista estrictamente b blico, sin supeditar sus conclusiones a lo que se opine desde otros acercamientos. El Sr. Fugate demuestra ser un sano y riguroso ex geta, as como un buen investigador y conocedor de las lenguas b blicas originales. Por esta raz n nos ofrece un trabajo s lidamente construido que provee una base consistente para aquellos que buscan respuestas b blicas. Por otra parte, esta obra del Sr. Fugate nos llega tambi n avalada por la satisfactoria experiencia del actor como padre y educador cristiano, y por el testimonio de numerosos padres que sobre los principios contenidos en este libro han construido familias capaces de soportar el mpetu de los r os que vigorosos arremeten contra la obra de Dios. Quiera Dios usar esta segunda edici n del libro en lengua castellana para fortalecer a su pueblo, trayendo a muchos hogares el orden y la realidad espiritual que forjar n nuevas generaciones de hombres y muj

Author Biography

Mr. Fugate personally accepted Jesus Christ as his Savior and was baptized into the Body of Christ at Reinhardt Bible Church in Garland, Texas, in 1968. He and his wife, Virginia, have attended a Bible-teaching church in each city God has sent them to minister: Dallas, Austin, Phoenix, and Sacramento over the past 40 years. Most of their pastors have been graduates of Dallas Theological Seminary. After committing himself in 1971 to serve God anywhere, or in any manner he might be called, Mr. Fugate learned Greek and studied many thousands of hours in the original languages of the Old and New Testament texts. He did not rely on existing systematic Theologies or Bible commentaries; convinced that he needed to perform his own exegesis and word studies to verify or develop doctrines that are substantiated by Scripture alone. He founded the Foundation for Biblical Research (FBR) in 1979 "to determine the one true meaning of Scripture based on honest research and a scientifically sound system of hermeneutics." Each of Mr. and Mrs. Fugate's books, such as this book, are written based on that research. Soon after his commitment to God, Mr. Fugate was called as Business Manager and later became Vice President of Finance for Accelerated Christian Education (A.C.E.). In 1975, Mr. and Mrs. Fugate were led to start a pilot Christian school in Garland, Texas, based on their experience of having home schooled their own three children for two previous years. In March of 1982 he was hired as Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of A.O.P. where he served for the next 13 years. Mr. Fugate was also a Keynote Speaker at 40+ State homeschool conventions in the 1990's and has written three books on home schooling. When A.O.P. was bought out in 1995, the Fugate's went on the road speaking on Biblical marriage, child training, and home schooling while writing second editions of their popular books. Mr. Fugate then served as Business Manager of Family Ministries from 2000 through 2004 until his "retirement" as full-time Director of The Foundation for Biblical Research in Arizona. He continues to research, teach and write on Bible-Based Theology. He has also served as an Elder of, IN THE WORD BIBLE FELLOWSHIP, in Mesa, AZ.
