Christian education is education of the religious being in the truth in order that he may commit himself to the truth, and the truth may make him free. True education has its inception in the fear of the Lord which is the beginning of wisdom. The Bible holds before us the attainment of understanding, wisdom, and righteousness as the goal of life. A dualistic view of education which calls some education religious and other secular fails to grasp that all understanding, wisdom, and righteousness are the fruit of faith. In all our ways we are called upon to acknowledge God, and He will direct our paths.
Man is an organic whole in whom the physiological and soul-life are one.
The whole person, body as well as soul, is said to be the temple of God. The human intellect cannot be parceled out for instruction independently of the emotional life or the life of the body. Human volitions cannot be educated apart from the intellect and the emotions. Children born of Christian parents are members of the Church of Christ. They. are children of the promise.
