A Village

It takes a village to raise a child.  In the old days, everyone in the community would watch out for the children. It didn't matter if the child belonged to the person or not.  Everyone watched and discipline all the children alike, then, the parent was notified. Juvenile crimes were way down. Children were too afraid to carry out evil acts because there were so many watchers. No home camera or babysitters needed because the neighborhood watch team was on the defense.  No child was hungry or without basic needs. As members of the community grew older and the children departed, the characteristic of the neighborhood slowly disappear.   Similarly, the Heavenly Trinity is a heavenly community that cares for the needs of mankind.  We get love from the Father, He watches over us (Psalms 34:15), provides our daily needs (Matthew 6:31), and corrects us through discipline (Hebrews 12:11).  Mankind disobeyed God’s law and God sent Jesus to redeem us back into the Father's good graces
