“Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right.”
For the Lord is author of all fatherhood, and therefore we must yield such obedience as he will have us. He cometh to another part of a family, and showeth that the duty of the children toward their parents, consisteth in obedience unto them. Cross references: : Col. 3:20 The first argument: because God hath so appointed: whereupon it followeth also, that children are so far forth bound to obey their parents, as they may not swerve from the true worship of God. The second argument: because this obedience is most just.
