Family Roles

That we might obtain a virtuous family and procure treasured offspring, our husbands must remain in subjection to Yahshua as they perform their role as the head of the family and home (Eph 5:23,1Cor 11:3). Our wives likewise are to be keepers of the home and joyful mothers of children (Titus 3:2-5, Psa 113:9) in submission to the authority of their husbands (Eph 5:22,1Cor 11:3,1Tim 2:12). Both parents are to be in unity (Mt 19:5) and care for, train, and teach (home-educate) their own children, through rod and reproof (Prov 13:24, 22:15, 29:15, Eph 6:4), in honor, respect and obedience to the laws and ways of Yahweh (Deut. 4:9,6:6-7,11:18-19, Prov 22:6, Eph. 6:1). In turn, our children are to lovingly care for their parents in their old age, and must not shift the responsibility to a secular nursing home or retirement community (1 Timothy 5:4,8).
