We're working on a children's catechism for our church. Two questions that we have in relation to the 5th commandment are:
I can understand that this could be an application, but is this the intent of or an imposition on the fifth commandment?
Q. What is required in the fifth commandment?
A. The fifth commandment requires the preserving the honor and performing the duties belonging to every one in their several places and relations, as superiors (Eph 5:21), inferiors (1 Pet 2:17) or equals (Rom. 12:10).
Q. What is forbidden in the fifth commandment?
A. The fifth commandment forbids the neglect of, or doing any thing against the honor and duty which belongs to every one in their several places and relations (Mt. 15:4-6; Ez. 34:24; rom 13:8).
I received this comment: "regarding the 5th commandment. It appears to me that more is being read into this commandment than is actually there."A. The fifth commandment requires the preserving the honor and performing the duties belonging to every one in their several places and relations, as superiors (Eph 5:21), inferiors (1 Pet 2:17) or equals (Rom. 12:10).
