Sermon: "Parents Who Are Worthy of Honor" 

 Sermon Text: Ephesians 6:62-3. 

Call to Worship: Ephesians 5:21-6:4. 

     Introduction:  In this section of Paul’s epistle to the Ephesians (5:21–6:4), the apostle gives some great guidelines for abundant living within the home. These are the most important relationships of life. We can be thankful that God has given guidelines to husbands and wives. He has given guidelines to parents regarding their children and guidelines to children concerning the manner in which they should relate to their parents. Today we will focus on the parental responsibility to children.

    I. To be parents worthy of honor, we need to subordinate ourselves to the Lord (Eph. 5:21).

 II. If we would be worthy parents, we must accept the authority of God. 

III. To be worthy parents, we need a quality of character that is worthy of reverence. 

IV. To be parents worthy of honor, we must practice love that is genuine. 

V. To be parents worthy of honor, we must not be guilty of exasperating our children (6:4). 

   Conclusion: We all need help if we are to be parents worthy of honor. We can be confident that God wants to help us improve the quality of our family life. We need to read the Bible and pray daily in the presence of our family. We need to let the church really be the church if we are going to be the finest Christian parents that we are capable of being. Let us earnestly seek to give our children parents that they find easy to honor and respect.
