This is a very special commandment. God has recommended that we would honor our fathers and mothers.

Why is it that He commanded us to do this?

Now! If in this world we are able to establish a good relationship with those who gave us life, who cared for us with all care and dedication as is our relationship with the rest of the world, and especially with our Eternal Father our true creator.

Of course it is not easy! Many houses and homes have serious problems with alcohol, drugs, adultery, fights, arguments, attacks and all kinds of disrespect among those who actually should only be loved.

If you are a son, a daughter and feels that this deal of respect and honor well spent away from home, so maybe it's a sign from God to you. This signal indicates that God is counting on you for His work is held in a powerful way in your family. God needs you to save and transform the lives of his parents and all his family.

13 And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said unto her, Weep not.

The same applies to sons and daughters. It is a relationship for life.

If by chance your parents one day you leave somehow, make sure that your Father largest ever forsake you:

10 If my father and mother forsake me, then the Lord will take me up. Psalm 27:10

Your father and your mother are not perfect. You happen to be perfect? You never made a mistake? You have more wisdom or common sense than their parents? If you have it, praise God! Why this is a gift that God gave you to wear it very well, starting in your own home.
Using a very calm, patience and prayer to the Father, the Lord Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit of God is up to you to show the unbelievers of his family the true path of wisdom, understanding, truth and eternal life that is in wonderful company the Lord Jesus Christ.

15 But it is not just the gift as the offense, as if through the offense of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abounded to many.

13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?
15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good things!
