Content Title: Parents and Children
Text: Ephesians 6:1-4
Today is a Sunday that all churches observe as Mother's Day. In this current state where authority, morals and ethics are shaken, the leaders of the country, the teachers at school, the parents at home, and the leaders of the church are ignored in distrust, assault, in this reality where we do not understand each other and live in conflict. We would like to share the grace with you under the title of children.
This world is called the world of the last days. 2 Timothy 3:1-5 “Know this that you will know that the times of distress will come in the last days, when people will love themselves, love money, be proud, proud, slanderers, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, callous, open-minded, accusers, unrestrained, ferocious, not fond of what is good, treacherous, selling, hasty, sleeping, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God, having a form of godliness, but denying the power of godliness. Turn away from such people."
In other words, disobeying your parents is what the last world will look like. These days, these last days are happening all over the place. In the old days, the general idea of the society was that the king, teacher, and parents all had the same authority as the military, the private sector, and the royal family, but now it is a long time ago. Fifty years ago, Korea was said to be a country that wants to age quickly and become old quickly.
Hilbert, who served as Emperor Gojong's emissary, said, "The country with the highest filial piety in this world is Joseon." In his memoir, a man named 'Sens', who worked for the United States, said, "I want to be reborn in the land of Joseon for my old age." Allen, the first medical missionary, said, "Joseon is a paradise for the elderly who are not afraid of old age or death." I did. At the time Paul wrote the book of Ephesians, the Roman family was a tyrannical family in which the father wielded absolute power. In this chapter, what kind of relationship should parents and children have in the love of Christ? is telling
So, what did your parents tell you to do?
1. I told you to honor your parents.
-1 He said, "Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right." "This is right." Why? Is this correct? Respect for parents is because this is right." Is this appropriate in light of God's Word?
A man named Park Jeong-seung, who was carrying a heavy burden to mourn his old mother, went down in the mountains and bowed down. When I came up, my grandmother cut off a pine branch, so go down well so you don’t get lost.” Later, a Chinese envoy came on horseback, and the two are the same, so when I asked the old woman which one was the mother, she starved her for a day and taught that the mother she eats later is the mother. In this world, you may need to study a lot, earn money, and have fame, but the most important thing is to do well to your parents.
2. Respect for parents is a shortcut to blessings.
2-3 "Honor your father and mother, for this is the first commandment with a promise, so that you may prosper and live long on earth." I told you.
A filial child in Philadelphia, USA, tries to lighten his mother's heavy bag.
After making a paper bag, it later became a shopping bag for department stores around the world, making it a fortune for the wealthy.

In the Bible, the sin of disloyalty is greater than the sin of adultery, theft, and murder. That is why Exodus 21:5 says, “Anyone who strikes against his father or mother must be put to death.” Exodus 21:17 "Anyone who curses his father or his mother must be put to death." Proverbs 30:17 "The eyes of those who mock their fathers and disobey their mothers will be pecked by ravens of the valley, and the young eagles will eat them." Matthew 15:4 "Anyone who blasphemes a father or mother shall surely die." Because the crime of disobedience was so great, the punishment was severe. Therefore, it is commanded to respect parents. The relationship of life that God has established is that of parents and children. This is called a heavenly relationship. Respect for parents is a basic human principle.
In the Jewish Talmud, God sent the angel Gabriel to bring the three most beautiful things to the world. But I brought flowers. Bringing little baby laughter. And brought the love of parents. But while bringing this, the flowers withered, the laughter of a young child was the wrinkled laughter of an adult while it was brought, and the love of the parents never changed. That's right. A parent's love is unchanging and beautiful. Arguments between parents and children are quickly resolved. Why? That's because parents make concessions a hundred times.
When children are filial to their parents,
3. Prosper and live long on earth, and receive filial piety from their children.
A man named Wongok of Chu, whose father told him to put his grandfather on a cart and throw it in the mountains, threw it away in the mountain and brought only the cart. Why did he bring this cart? Hani, when my father dies, I try to load it with this cart and do it like my grandfather. Hani realized something, so he came with his father and did filial piety. Just as our parents grow old, we too will grow old someday. You will reap what you sow.
Therefore, parents and children are a relationship that God has given for blessing.
A pastor saw his car being towed and broke his leg while jumping off a hill. But the car was someone else's. They were mistaken because they were the same color. How would you feel if your parents and brothers were dragged and dragged into the harsh place of hell?
St. Francis and Sun Da Sing were persecuted by their parents for believing in Jesus, so they tried to give him poison and sued the court to remove their children from the family register, but then they prayed and cried. Whether we cry out and write for the souls of our parents, like their children, we should show filial piety and love to our parents.
In the name of Jesus, I pray that all of our family members will believe in Jesus and God's grace overflows between parents and children. Proverbs 23:24-25 "The father of the righteous will rejoice greatly, and he who gives birth to a wise child will
You will rejoice because of it." "Make your father and your mother happy, and the mother who gave birth to you."
♬ Mother’s grace
Forgetting all the suffering and growing up, working hard day and night In reality, you change the dry place of your heart, and you suffer until your hands and feet are worn out. What can be said to be vast under the sky? Mother's sacrifice is endless.
When I was young, I held him, carried him, and frozen him. When he was growing up, he leaned on the door and waited. Lost his heart. The forehead, which was healed by thoughts of his child, was full of wrinkles. What could be said to be high on the ground?
