INTRODUCTION
A. THE FIRST FOUR COMMANDMENTS DEAL WITH OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD.
B. THE FIFTH COMMANDMENT BEGINS A SEGMENT DEALING WITH OUR RELATIONSHIPS WITH OTHERS.
1. This commandment begins at the most logical and important point. Our relationship at home.
2. There has always been an all-out assault on the home.
3. The strength of the home determines the strength of society itself.
4. The nuclear home is slowly disintegrating.
C. THE 5TH COMMANDMENT DEALS WITH RESPECT OF PARENTS.
1. It is given before commandments not to murder, commit adultery, or covet.
2. Our parents are the first people we meet and know. If we cannot learn to respect and love and obey our parents how do we expect to get along in society?
