Week 5: (Oct 6-12, 2019) DAYS

30 Jan 2020
Kathy Swan
Reading for Day 1 and 2

Ephesians 6: 1-4

Memory Work.

2 “Honor your father and mother” (this is the first commandment with a promise), 3 “that it may go well with you and that you may live long in the land. Children obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.

2 “Honor your father and mother” (this is the first commandment with a promise), 3 “that it may go well with you and that you may live long in the land.”4 Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.

    1. What does authority mean?
       
    2. What is the promise of this commandment?
       
    3. Please explain how that promise will affect you?
       
    4. List 4 other authorities we are to obey beside parents. LSC Question 54
       
    5. What do we do if an authority such as teachers, or our boss or even our parents tell us to do something that violates God’s Word? LSQ Questions 56-57
Reading for Day 3 and 4

Romans 13:1-7

Memory Work

 7 Pay to all what is owed to them: taxes to whom taxes are owed, revenue to whom revenue is owed, respect to whom respect is owed, honor to whom honor is owed.

3 Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God. 2 Therefore whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment. 3 For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of the one who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval, 4 for he is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain. For he is the servant of God, an avenger who carries out God’s wrath on the wrongdoer.5 Therefore one must be in subjection, not only to avoid God’s wrath but also for the sake of conscience. 6 For because of this you also pay taxes, for the authorities are ministers of God, attending to this very thing.7 Pay to all what is owed to them: taxes to whom taxes are owed, revenue to whom revenue is owed, respect to whom respect is owed, honor to whom honor is owed.

  1. If you are not breaking the law, do you have anything to fear from the law?  
     
  2. Is there any time when we are not to obey those in authority over us? If so when?  LSC Question 56-57
     
  3. In each of the following Bible stories how was respect and honor shown?
     

Genesis 46:

  1.  How did Joseph show honor and respect?
     
  2. To whom did he show honor and respect?
     

1st Kings 2

  1.  How did King Solomon show honor and respect?
     
  2. To whom did he show honor and respect?
     

2 Kings 2:  

    1. How did Elisha show respect and honor?
       
    2. To whom did he honor?
