How do parents face their unfilial children?Gen15:1-21; Eph6:4; Pro13:24

 

 

1. When children are not filial.

1) We ourselves must first be encouraged through the covenant, not just desire filial children alone.

 

Read <Ge 15:1-10>

 

2) Sympathize with children: weaknesses, general neediness as humans -> change in disposition.

 

Read <Ge 15:11-21>

 

2. Rule with love.

 

1) Preventive discipline: give them instructions they can obey in order to conquer their will. <Eph6:4>

 

2) Corrective punishment: encouraging repentance, appropriate, with appropriateness and consistency. <Pro13:24>

 

3) The conflict of ages: reform this generation.
