Working to Honor God

Colossians 3:18-25

¹⁸ Wives, submit to your husbands in a way that is appropriate in the Lord. ¹⁹ Husbands, love your wives and don’t be harsh with them. ²⁰ Children, obey your parents in everything, because this pleases the Lord. ²¹ Parents, don’t provoke your children in a way that ends up discouraging them. ²² Slaves, obey your masters on earth in everything. Don’t just obey like people pleasers when they are watching. Instead, obey with the single motivation of fearing the Lord. ²³ Whatever you do, do it from the heart for the Lord and not for people. ²⁴ You know that you will receive an inheritance as a reward. You serve the Lord Christ. ²⁵ But evildoers will receive their reward for their evil actions. There is no discrimination.
