Sermon Notes
Authority in the Family

In a Family:
HUSBAND/FATHER
WIFE/MOTHER
CHILDREN


RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN HUSBANDS AND WIVES:

AS HUSBANDS:

1) Ephesians 5:23a
"For the husband is the head of the wife."

2) Ephesians 5:25-27
"Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up..."

AS WIVES:

3) Ephesians 5:22
"Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord."
-it is when the wives have different opinions from the husbands and the wives listen to the husband's opinion, that's called submission.
-when wives submit to their husbands, they are also submitting to God

4) 1 Peter 3:1
"Wives, in the same way be submissive to your husbands..."

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PARENTS AND CHILDREN:

AS CHILDREN:

5) Ephesians 6:1-3
"1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.-unmarried children
2 'Honour your father and mother'-which is the first commandment with a promise,-married children
3 that it may go well with you and that you may enjoy long life on the earth."

AS PARENTS:

How should parents use the authority that God has given them over their children?
[1] Bless and encourage our children
-Romans 12:14b-15
"Bless and do not curse. Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn."
-Proverbs 18:21a
"The tongue has the power of life and death."

[2] Help your child to know God
-Proverbs 22:6
"Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it."
-Matthew 6:33
"But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well."
if we seek Him first, we will be very successful in life.

5) Psalms 68:5
"A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling."
-God will be the head of the household if the husbands pass away/ divorced, etc.

6) 1 Timothy 5:16
-God loves everyone in the world; but especially those who need Him. (widows, orphans etc.)

7) Psalms 128:1-2, 3-4
"Blessed are all who fear the Lord, who walk in his ways. You will eat the fruit of your labour; blessings and prosperity will be yours..."

With Christ's love

shine Your light

For this is what the high
and lofty One says –
“I live in a high and
holy place,but also
with him who is contrite
and lowly in spirit,
to revive the spirit
of the lowly and to
revive the heart of the
contrite.”
-Isaiah 57:15
Be Humble and Obedient

Your truth

"Don't let anyone look
down on you because
you are young, but set
an example in speech,
in life, in love, in faith
and in purity"
-1 Timothy 4:12
