~ Parent's Ten Commandments ~

Teach them using God's word.

These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. 
Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when 
you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up
Deuteronomy 6:6-7 

Tell them what's right and wrong.

The prospect of the righteous is joy, 
but the hopes of the wicked come to nothing.

See them as gifts from God.

Sons are a heritage from the Lord, 
children a reward from him.

Guide them in Godly ways.

Train a child in the way he should go, 
and when he is old he will not turn from it.
Proverbs 22:6

Discipline them.

Discipline your son, and he will give you peace; 
he will bring delight to your soul.
Proverbs 29:17

Love them unconditionally.

A new command I give you: Love one another. 
As I have loved you, so you must love one another.

Do not provoke them to wrath.

Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, 
bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord.

Earn their respect by example.

He must manage his own family well and see 
that his children obey him with proper respect.

Provide for their physical needs.

If anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for his immediate family, 
he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.

Pass your faith along to them.

Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, 
and the message is heard through the word of Christ.
