Q. 7. What are the Duties of Children to Parents?
A. Their Duty is, (1.) To obey them only in the Lord, Eph. 6.1. Children obey your parents in the Lord. (2) To reverence and honour them, Levit. 19.3. Ye shall fear every man his mother and his father, &c. (3.) To submit to their Reproofs and Corrections, Hebr. 12.9. Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh, which corrected us, and we gave them reverence. (4.) To provide for them, if they be poor and needy, and we have ability, Gen. 47.12. And Joseph nourished his father and his brethren, and all his fathers household with bread, according to their families.
