I Cor.4:15 For though ye have ten thousand instructers in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel. (one who brings another evangelistically into The Kingdom of Christ is father or parent.)
Eph 6 (the following may refer to both natural and spiritual, though the original was definitely for normal family relationships – Deut. 5:16.) 6:1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. 6:2 Honor thy father and mother; which is the first commandment with promise; 6:3 That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth. 6:4 And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.
Deut. 5:16 Honor thy father and thy mother, as the LORD thy God hath commanded thee; that thy days may be prolonged, and that it may go well with thee, in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee. |
