Passage: Colossians 3:18-4:1
Wives are to submit to their husbands.
18 Wives, be subject to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.
Husbands are to love their wives.
19 Husbands, love your wives and do not be embittered against them.
Children should obey their parents.
20 Children, be obedient to your parents in all things, for this is well-pleasing to the Lord.
Fathers should encourage their children.
21 Fathers do not exasperate your children, so that they will not lose heart.
Do your work as unto the Lord.
Employees with integrity 22-25
22 Slaves, in all things obey those who are your masters on earth, not with external service, as those who merely please men, but with sincerity of heart, fearing the Lord. 23 Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as for the Lord rather than for men, 24 knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance. It is the Lord Christ whom you serve. 25 For he who does wrong will receive the consequences of the wrong which he has done, and that without partiality
Treat those who work for you as you want the Lord to treat you.
Employers with generosity 4:1
1 Masters, grant to your slaves justice and fairness, knowing that you too have a Master in heaven.
