Emyogalanya:
pls define what you mean by godly parents. The truth is that what we see in church as godly parents, is not what the children see at home as godly father or mother. Forget all the pretence in church, it's this children that live with the parents real character almost 24/7. We only see and hear them from the pulpit say, for 3-4 hours a week. That informs our own idea of godly parents. The children knows their parents better that we do
OP this is the best answer to your question

You forgot to list other Bible character that raised Godly seeds. Namely;

Philip the deacon: raised four virgin, who prophesied.

Mary and Joseph: Raised the saviour of the world and many more are in the list.

What about our contemporary Christian home?

Bishop David and Faith oyedepo: Raised four kingdom giants.

Pastor E.A Adeboye: Raised firebrand children and many more.

Op, there are many homes around me that raised Godly children and I am raising mine as well by God's grace.

No parenting program can guarantee their children’s godliness. Parenting is laden with challenges, in our world today, it is even more challenging to raise a godly child. There are way too many distractions everywhere. Unfortunately, many Christian parents are not equally prepared to teach their kids the case for the truth of Christianity and how to defend their beliefs.

Cos it takes not just only the parents to raise children, but the village and society at large. wink

Because there is nothing like Godly parents and Godly children in the first place.
Re: Why Are Godly Parents Not Raising Godly Seeds? by viktohmarkz(m): 10:34am On Oct 17, 2021
Because they try to instill fear in the lives of their children and once that child comes to the sense to see that fear for what it truely is..... They call the after effect freedom

What a man sow, that is what he will reap.

A child today become a man tomorrow and he will surely be responsible for his actions to the government and his maker.

There is very little one man can do to help another person, though you are a child of big pastor and decided to go your own way of life different from your parents, it is a choice and you will reap the results first before you share the results with your family members.

The Bible says you can take a horse to the river to drink but you can not force the horse to drink water.

A wise son looks up to his father for example irrespective. A good son should pick the good qualities of his father irrespective.

But the will of God reigns supreme.

Simply because God's interest is also devils interest and most parents are not prayerful as they suppose to be

U people that are accusing godly people children of being ungodly are you yourselves godly?

U think it is easy to be godly in a dead society like Nigeria presently?
Re: Why Are Godly Parents Not Raising Godly Seeds? by Lekan239(m): 10:43am On Oct 17, 2021
Because the children knows all the hidden truth about the acclaimed godly men who just act godly to deceive the greater mass

Because instead of showing the children negative effects of what they are doing, why they should do this and shouldnt do this, they choose to control them with fear! And 'fear' my brother doesn't last.
Because devil mostly fight them through their children

A lamp can never see its own under... The kids strategies on how to make their negative activities hidden from their parents until they are of age to exhibit without being cautioned

Adam and Evil failed over Cain
Noah failed over his children.
Isaac and Rebecca did not have perfect children.
Eli lost because of his children.
Samuel's children made Israel to ask for a king.

Re: Why Are Godly Parents Not Raising Godly Seeds? by domnwan(m): 11:05am On Oct 17, 2021
It is because they focus there useless attention talking down and claiming righteous to other people's children thinking that they're done raising theirs but finally their own children are more useless, irresponsible and failed!

Everybody is responsible to God as individuals for their own personal choices. The fathers are not responsible for the sins of their children, and the children are not responsible for the sins of their fathers.

Raising upright children and inculcating moral in them is a task and challenge on its own that all parents must be aiming at and working towards to especially in this contemporary era of Yahoo Yahoo in our society, where our children are obsessed with money and luxurious gadgets, olooshoism shedi balabala shedi bolobolo on Instagram.
May God help us all.
Happy Sunday!!

"Godly parents" know nothing about parenting, unfortunately. Especially Deeper Life parents. Quote me everyday!
True very very true
Re: Why Are Godly Parents Not Raising Godly Seeds? by flipboss(m): 11:36am On Oct 17, 2021
A major reason why Christian parents fail in parenting is inadequate understanding on the subject itself. Generally, we tend not to be intentional about learning things that are not conventionally classified as "formal." People don't get deliberate to learn about marriage, how to relate with your spouse, raising children, learn about leadership, finance, etc. Yet we except to do well on this fount. Most people rely on their experience or how their parents handled them and want to do the same for their children not minding that time and circumstances have changed.
God is still helping a lot of Christian parents to get successful at this pertinent task of parenting. My advice is to go for knowledge and be intentional.
A free Christian parenting conference is coming up in Ilorin, Kwara state on the 28th of Novermber.
It's a physical meeting but you can also join on Mixlr.

Godly parents or pretending to be godly parents?
Fake people all over Nigeria in the name of religion.
Rubbish.

Real life proves different to me. All the godly parents I know raised the very same type of children.

They are busy doing God's work forgetting the instructions of God of the work to train their children. Few of them like Abraham and Joshua trained their children

Blurpy:
Where did you get these fact from?
There are a lot of Godly and we'll mannered children from Godly parents. Because the few bad eggs from the Godly parents are well spoken and criticised about, that's why it seems so. I've seen brilliant and hardworking children from drunkard father or even broken home.
My neighbor for instance, he has a boy, an only child, he is a deeper life pastor, he even uses megaphone to preach, but his son don spoil tey tey, him dey smoke, fcvk, gamble, yahoo, flexing etc. Nothing the man fit do. If pikin wan get sense,na by himself, nobody go force am.
Hausa have a saying ' I born pikin, I no born him character'.
