This depends on what you believe about The Bible. Christians believe the Bible is God's word, God's communication with mankind.

If you are a Christian the best way to explain the Bible to your child is to start at the beginning. The Bible reveals to us who God is, what God is like, His character, His attributes, His relationship to mankind. God has revealed Himself to us within the context of the historical events recorded in the scriptures.

If you are not a Christian the you can explain the Bible as a history book

ANOTHER ANSWER:

A parent begins by studying and knowing the Bible, himself. Then, he may be able to teach his child that the Bible is "Truth" (John 17:17)... and that only God opens up that Truth to a "contrite and humble heart" (Isa. 66:2). And then finish up by being a "living example" of that Truth through his own actions that His child can see... and hopefully emulate in his life.

Is it all right to raise your child in a catholic and a Bible church?

This is ultimately a personal decision every parent must make. In this scenario, there will be a great deal of confusion caused to the child since there is such a massive difference between them. Further to this, a Bible church, if it really teaches the Bible, will lead to the conclusion that what is taught and practiced in the Catholic church is not true, according to the Bible. Similarly, the Catholic Church would teach that the Bible church is in error. This will create difficulties both for the child and the parent(s). It may even lead to the unfortunate result that it is all wrong (in the eyes of the child) or to a tug of war. Having said all that, it would still be better that the child has some Bible teaching than none. It also depends on the Bible church -if it is a Bible church really or just in name only.


Do Jehovah's Witnesses have funerals for their children?

Yes, most would have a memorial service for their child. It would be up to the parents of the child and any decision on the matter would not involve their beliefs, as there are no principles against this in the Bible.
