My pastor shared this story this morning.
Great reminder.
"Yet it was the will of the Lord to crush him..." - Isaiah 53:10

Adventures In Apologetics: What Does It Mean To "Honor Your Parents"?
"Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the LORD your God is giving you." ~Exodus 20:12
As a Christian, I understand that the Ten Commandments are a mirror meant to show our desperate sinfulness and need for a Savior, and as a teenager, I understand the the meaning of everyone of them....except this one!?
What exactly does it mean to "honor" our parents, and what do Jesus mean when He says that we must "hate our parents" to follow Him?
Well, the think the answer too all question of Scripture questions should start in Scripture itself. What does the Word really say?
