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...

• Your worth is in Him

When you honor The Lord, you honor your parents and you  parent honorably.
