Proverbs 3:5, 6 "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths."
1 John 2:16 "For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world."
Three Paradigms.
The three paradigms, ways of feeling, thinking, acting, toward self, toward others, toward the world, and toward authority. Patriarch, Matriarch, and Heresiarch.
Patriarchal paradigm = dialogue (what the child or children want to have or do) is subject to discussion (to what the Father says, with the Father having the final say).
Matriarchal paradigm = when it comes to what the child or children want to have or want to do, that the father disagrees with, dialogue (the mother, sympathetic to the child's or children's feelings siding with the child or children) and discussion (the wife, submitting to her husband's authority holding the child or children to doing what their father, her husband says) are conflicted (either the father holds to his position with the child or children and possibly wife being upset with him or he yields, submits, or abdicates to his wife's, the child's or children's mother's feelings).
Heresarchal paradigm = discussion (right and wrong behavior) is subject to dialogue (to what the childen want to have or do, with right being the children getting what they want to have or doing what they want to do, wrong being anyone getting in the way of what they want to have or do) = negating (distroying) the Father's authority ("washing" the Father's authority from the mind of the children, with what the children want, "group think" and the facilitator of 'change,' the serpent in the garden in Eden having taken his place, removing everyone who gets in their way, including the unborn, the elderly, the innocent, the righteous without having a guilty conscience, without having any remorse).
