Respect For Parents
Ephesians 6:1. God holds the parent-child relationship as special. In the Bible our relationship with God is continually compared with a parent-child relationship. God tells us in the ten commandments to obey and have respect for parents. He says that to obey our parents is right (Ephesians 6:1, "Children, obey your parents in the Lord:"). This does not mean that we only obey our parents when we agree with them or fully understand why they are telling us to do something. We must obey them at all times. We must also honor and have respect for parents. God does not want you to put your parents above Him, but he does desire for you to treat them as He desires for you to treat Him. Just as we "declare his glory among the heathen" (1 Chronicles 16:24), we must always show respect for parents in all situations and with all people.
