Exodus 20:12
“The law put Jesus on the cross.
The law brings sinners to the cross. The law keeps Christians near the cross.”
-Mike Mazzalongo
It matters what we understand…
1. The Order of the 5th Commandment
-The relationship of children to their parents is first, forever, and foundational.
2. The Obedience to the 5th Commandment
- Honor matters. Honor in Hebrew literally means “heavy” or “weighty.” Honor is really for all of us.
Honor: Children – Obedience. Adults – Respect/Care.
3. The Obstacle to the 5th Commandment
When this world’s relationships are broken, you are not alone.
4. The Outcome of the 5th Commandment
Honoring you as a mother with truth...
When you honor The Lord, you honor your parents and you parent honorably.
