Who Christian Children Are and What Christian Children Do (2020.11.22 Evening Sermon in Ephesians 6:1–3)

Children are counted among the saints. Children are expected to be in worship; the worship is for them just as for others. Children must obey their parents. Children are expected to care about the Lord. Children are expected to care about what is right. Children are expected to obey from the heart. It is not merely a manner of complying but of honoring. Children are expected to prioritize obedience to parents. Children are expected to keep the commandments. Children should expect God to bless them.
