    Chapter 37—The False and the True in Education

    The mastermind in the confederacy of evil is ever working to keep out of sight the words of God and to bring human opinions into view. He tries to keep us from hearing the voice of God saying, “‘This is the way, walk in it.’” Isaiah 30:21. Through perverted educational processes he is doing his utmost to obscure heaven’s light.MHH 254.1

    Philosophical speculation and scientific research in which God is not acknowledged are making skeptics of thousands. In the schools of today the conclusions that learned men and women have reached as the result of their scientific investigations are carefully taught and fully explained, and the impression is distinctly given that if these learned people are correct, the Bible cannot be. Skepticism is attractive to the human mind. The youth see in it an independence that captivates the imagination, and they are deceived. Satan triumphs. He nourishes every seed of doubt that is sown in young hearts. He causes it to grow and bear fruit, and soon a plentiful harvest of infidelity is reaped.MHH 254.2

    Because the human heart is inclined to evil, it is dangerous to sow seeds of skepticism in young minds. Whatever weakens faith in God robs the soul of power to resist temptation. It removes the only real safeguard against sin. We are in need of schools where the youth shall be taught that greatness consists in honoring God by revealing His character in daily life. Through His Word and His works we need to learn of God, that our lives may fulfill His purpose.MHH 254.3
