HAVE YOU QUIZZED YOUR CHILDREN?

On my long flight from India (16 hours non-stop) I was reading a very good Christian book. In that book I read: In one of the better public schools in the nation, a high school teacher gave a quiz from the Bible to the college bound seniors prior to a "Bible as Literature" class. Some of the unusual answers were "Sodom and Gomorrah were lovers, Jezebel was Ahab's donkey, the Gospels were written by Matthew, Mark, Luther, and John, Eve was created from Apple, Jesus was baptized by Moses, and Golgotha was the name of the giant who killed Apostle David. Oh my my my. Well have you quizzed your children from the Bible? Will you get different answers than this? Do you know there are instructions in the Bible how to teach our children about God and His law. " These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. IMPRESS them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Write them on the door frames of your houses and your gates". Deuteronomy 6:6-9. Hey follow the manual for life, THE BIBLE, then we won't regret. This is my take on it.
