A. It is the Duty of Children to honour their Father and Mother. Ephes. 6.2. Exod. 20.12. Mal. 1.6.
Q. But what is it for Children to honour their Father and Mother?
A. First, Children that are under the Power of their Parents, ought to honour them, by obeying them in the Lord.
[Ephes. 6.1, 2, 3. Children obey your Parents in the Lord, for this is right.

Children, obey your Parents in all things, (which they as Parents may command) for this is well-pleasing unto the Lord. See
