The big lie would be to say there was no God, or His promise. Unless you have proof to the contrary for the child?
If a child asks me, I'll say there are a lot of gods that people believe in. But none of them have any proof, and I don't believe in one.
That is a lot more honest than saying heaven is like disneyland.
You still haven't answered my question.
If a father says to his children, live with me forever or burn in a pit. Is he abusive or is he Christlike?
