Text: Ephesians 6:1-3; Colossians 3:20; 1 Timothy 3:4-5, 12; Titus 1:6
Today we will consider the 5th Commandment and all of the blessings that come from diligently observing it. At first thought many adults may consider this sermon is only for children. They are quite mistaken, for the 5th Commandment applies to adults even if they are fully grown and their parents are no longer living.
Let me say it clearly: this “commandment with a promise” applies to all people whatever age they may be. It is an injunction from the Lord that relates to our past memories, our present actions, and our future decisions. Failure to heed it will result in many frustrating troubles and difficulties throughout a person’s life.
Ultimately, the 5th Commandment points to the Lord Jesus Christ, who was always eager to obey and bring honor to his Father (cf. Luke 2:49; John 5:19-47; 6:25-51; 10:14, 17-18, 27-30; 14:1-14). As Christians, we should follow his perfect example.
