A Lesson on Family Today we will be looking at how Christians should view marriage & family life. Much of this lesson will show how God says we should deal with our children. A God-centered home should be different than a worldly home. Our household should be structured by God’s plan for the home. It’ll produce one that’s well pleasing to the Lord; & also a more pleasant one for our family members.

A Lesson on Family

The Marriage Bond When a man and women get married, God wills for their marriage to last until they die (Gen. 2:24; Mal. 2:16). And I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery; and whoever marries her who is divorced commits adultery. Matt 19:9 (NKJV) For the woman who has a husband is bound by the law to her husband as long as he lives. But if the husband dies, she is released from the law of her husband. 3 So then if, while her husband lives, she marries another man, she will be called an adulteress; but if her husband dies, she is free from that law, so that she is no adulteress, though she has married another man. Romans 7:2-3 (NKJV)

The Marriage Bond God gives the husband & wife excellent instruction on how to maintain a happy marriage (Eph. 5:22-33). If we are selfish, then our marriage is going to be difficult. But if we love our spouse like we do ourselves (& we treat them like we want to be treated) then we will have a happy marriage. Wives are to respect their husbands, because they are supposed to be the head of the household & the spiritual leader (Cf. 1 Cor. 11:3).

A God-Centered Family Both husband & wife must work every day at being examples to one another, and especially to their children (Eph. 6:4). You must practice what you preach. You cannot expect your children to take you seriously when you tell them not to do something, yet you do it yourself.

A God-Centered Family We must know what our children are doing, and being exposed to (Prov. 29:15). Families should be worshiping TOGETHER (Mal. 1:6-8; Matt. 6:33; Jn. 6:68). It is our responsibility to raise our children up knowing God, so that they will be rooted and grounded in His word (Prov. 22:6; Eph. 6:4).

We Must Discipline our Children For the commandment is a lamp, And the law a light; Reproofs of instruction are the way of life, Prov 6:23 (NKJV) The rod and rebuke give wisdom, But a child left to himself brings shame to his mother. Prov 29:15 (NKJV) Correct your son, and he will give you rest; Yes, he will give delight to your soul. Prov 29:17 (NKJV)

We Must Discipline our Children He who spares his rod hates his son, But he who loves him disciplines him promptly. Prov 13:24 (NKJV) Do not withhold discipline from a child; if you strike him with a rod, he will not die. Prov 23:13 (ESV)

We Must Discipline our Children He who spares his rod hates his son, But he who loves him disciplines him promptly. Prov 13:24 (NKJV) Do not withhold discipline from a child; if you strike him with a rod, he will not die. Prov 23:13 (ESV)

We Must Discipline our Children He who spares his rod hates his son, But he who loves him disciplines him promptly. Prov 13:24 (NKJV) Do not withhold discipline from a child; if you strike him with a rod, he will not die. Prov 23:13 (ESV) The rod and rebuke give wisdom, But a child left to himself brings shame to his mother. Prov 29:15 (NKJV)

We Must Discipline our Children There are various forms of discipline that we can use that are found in the Bible (Cf. Ezr. 7:26; Exod. 22; Isa. 47:3). Confiscation of things precious. Grounding. Paying restitution. Impartial acknowledgement of wrong-doing.

Message for the Children Instructions for you (Eph. 6:1-3). God wants you to respect your parents. It is your responsibility to obey and honor them. Be thankful that we are no longer living under the authority of the Old Testament (Deut. 21:18-21). Be thankful to live under NT authority, appreciating the discipline that you receive. Respect your parents.

A Lesson on Family The lesson has stressed how important it is for a God- fearing family to be different than a worldly family. We should do our best to choose the right mate, and to make our marriages last a lifetime. We have learned how important it is that we train our children up in the admonition of the Lord: By setting good examples. By teaching them what is right in the sight of God. Bringing them to Bible class & worship. Disciplining them when it is necessary. Finally, we learned the children are to obey their parents.
