FATHERS & DISCIPLINE (2)
(Message by Tanny Keng)
1. Fathers
1. Fathers
a) We live in a day and in a culture that tries to minimize fathers. Dad is just there but not involved with the things of the family. Fathers are so important in the development of their children. The Bible is clear that Fathers are to be spiritual leaders in the home.
b) The Bible has much to say about both our earthly fathers and God our heavenly father.
Psalms 103:13
As a father shows compassion to his children, so the Lord shows compassion to those who fear him.
2. Fathers and Discipline
Proverbs 4:1–4
Hear, O sons, a father’s instruction, and be attentive, that you may gain insight, for I give you good precepts; do not forsake my teaching. When I was a son with my father, tender, the only one in the sight of my mother, he taught me and said to me,“Let your heart hold fast my words; keep my commandments, and live.
Ephesians 6:2, 4
“Honor your father and mother” (this is the first commandment with a promise),…4 Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
