Message: [QUOTE="keokeokk, post: 3988705, member: 285061"] The suggestions below serve to start or guide your study, but they are not a complete list of the instructions the children need in my opinion Respect authority. Learning to respect the Lord's absolute authority is of paramount importance for the eternal salvation of children (Matthew 28: 18-20; 2 Thessalonians 1: 7-9). But this lesson begins before the child develops the capacity to understand the idea of a spiritual and invisible Being. When the child learns to respect the authority of the mother and the earthly father, it takes an important step toward submission to God. If you do not respect the visible father, how will the heavenly Father obey? The principle of respect must encompass other authority figures - teachers at school, supervisors in the service, government officials, and spiritual guides (see Romans 13: 1-7, 1 Peter 2: 13,18, 3: 1, Hebrews 13: 17).
