Relationships

What is the relationship between a husband and a wife?
What is the relationship between a parent and a child?
What is the relationship between an employer and an employee?
What is the relationship between a member of the church and an elder?
What is the relationship between a citizen and their government?
What is the relationship between two individuals?

How you define those relationships tells a lot about your biblical worldview. Any attempt to define relationships apart from God's Bible revealed law is a form of rebellion. In His word He defines each of those relationships and tells us how they are to be lived. Can you give the biblical definition of each of them? If not, you are likely functioning in one or more of them in an unbiblical fashion, in rebellion against God. You might not even know it!

Take the time today to make sure you can give the biblical answer to each of those questions. If you live in each of those relationships biblically, the way God intended for you to, you will be blessed. Choose man's way and you'll get ... well just look around, what you see is what you'll get.
