  5. Responsibility to Extended Family Grandparents are to be honored as are parents All older relatives should be honored due to their age - Leviticus 19:32 The obligation to “kinsmen” is greater than to the general population, but less than to immediate family

  6. Responsibility to Extended Family Kinship determined rights of inheritance, restitution and redemption of property (Lev. 25, Numb. 5, 27) Care for relatives is seen in Abraham (Gen. 14), Joseph (Gen. 50), and its lack in Job 19:14 & Ps. 38:11

  7. Responsibility to Extended Family Strong family loyalty results in help when needed. Weak family loyalty results in abandonment Family loyalty is important, but loyalty to God comes first

  8. Responsibility to Society Authority Our allegiance is to God first even if human authorities persecute us for it We submit to human authority as long as it does not contradict God’s commands We teach our children to show respect to every authority in word and action

  9. Responsibility to Society Authority You can disagree with an authority and despise their sinfulness and still show respect for their office Prove your character by your speech and conduct regardless of how authorities treat you (1 Tim. 4:12)

  10. Responsibility to Society Peers Peers are those who are of the same age, status or ability The difficulty with peer relationships is that jealousy and rivalry easily develop in them Followers of Christ have a different approach to life which we teach our children - humility

  11. Responsibility to Society Others Humility is also the key to all relationships with all other people. Your must reign in your child’s natural selfishness and replace it with humility and thoughtfulness

  12. Responsibility to Society Others Do not let your children whine, complain or treat others with disrespect, require them to be courteous Teach children to share from an early age

  14. Responsibilities to the Opposite Sex Those who were a generation older were to be treated as either a father or mother The older generation should treat those of younger generations as sons and daughters Those of the same generation should treat one another as brothers and sisters

  15. Responsibilities to the Opposite Sex Potential marriage partners are treated as brothers and sisters and with all purity Society advocates finding someone that sparks your emotions. Scripture directs you to find someone with whom you can walk and serve the Lord & reflect Him

  16. Responsibilities to the Opposite Sex Don’t fall for the lustful romantic dating trap, do not play with people’s hearts Ladies, walk in purity in dress, speech and areas of interest You get what you advertise for

  17. Responsibilities to the Opposite Sex Parents, teach by your example, by your instruction and what you allow to influence them
