Relationships that Reflect: the Parent/Child Relationship - Ephesians 6:1-4

As Paul turns to the relationship between parents and children, he continues to paint a picture of how our earthly relationships reflect our heavenly one. In this passage, we’re reminded that just as children are called to honor and obey their parents, we too are called to live in loving obedience to our Heavenly Father. Likewise, parents—especially fathers—are urged to lead with the same care, patience, and instruction that God extends to us as His children.
