GOD TEACHES US ABOUT FAMILY God instituted marriage as a monogamous, lifelong relationship, Mark 10:2–12 , to be established in a home separate from that of the parents, Eph. 5:31. Adultery is so serious as to be the subject of the seventh commandment, Ex. 20:14, where it stands between murder and stealing. The husband is given the place of headship, but he is to love his wife enough to be willing to be crucified for her, Eph. 5:22–33. He bears the responsibility to provide for his family, 1 Tim. 5:8, and to rear the children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord, Eph. 6:4; Deut. 6:6, 7. He is warned not to provoke or discourage them, Col. 3:21. The wife is given the place of subjection to her husband, Eph. 5:22–33; 1 Pet. 3:1–6 , but she is to have the place of honor in the home, 1 Pet. 3:7. If either fails to give the other the place accorded by Scripture, their prayers are hindered. Children occupy the place of obedience to both parents, Eph. 6:1–3; Prov. 22:15; 23:23:13, whom they must honor and requite, Eph. 6:2; 1 Tim. 5:4; John 19:26. Servants in the household are to be given fair treatment by their employers, Col. 4:1. On their part, they are required to be obedient and honest, Tit. 2:9, 10, and faithful in their work, Col. 3:22–24. I HOPE YOU ENJOYED AND RECEIVED FROM THIS QUICK REFRESHER.

YOUR PAST Philippians 3:13-14 ESV Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own.
