He established a testimony in Jacob and appointed a law in Israel, which he commanded our fathers to teach to their children, that the next generation might know them, the children yet unborn, and arise and tell them to their children, so that they should set their hope in God and not forget the works of God, but keep his commandments; and that they should not be like their fathers, a stubborn and rebellious generation, a generation whose heart was not steadfast, whose spirit was not faithful to God.

We must teach the next generation that the Law of God is a blueprint for life in the Kingdom of God in the here and now. They must know and understand that the kingdom is available to them now and not some form of ethereal pie in the sky.
