Honor Thy Parents

Exodus 20:12

I thank Him for the way He has blessed our church with so much talent and with such willing people - the orchestra, the choir and all the praise team. Everyone did such a good job making this a special Mother's Day. You know, in our church we want to reach everybody with the gospel - the young, the old, rich, poor, saved, lost.

Now, we're here today to honor our mothers. Let's look today at this command and see what God has to say about honoring our parents.
I. First of all I want you to notice the reason for honoring our parents - number one - because God said so and that ought to be enough. God said in the ten commandments, and this is the big ten, this is God's top ten, and number 5 on God's top ten is honor your father and your mother. Honor your parents, God says. God had a reason for giving us this command. It is in honoring our parents that we learn to respect authority. God gave us three institutions for society. God gave us the church. God gave us the government ...
