Colossians 3:18-21 NKJV


Colossians 3:18-21 Wives, submit to your own husbands, as is fitting to the Lord.


Husbands, love your wives and do not be bitter toward them.


Children, obey your parents in all things, for this is well pleasing to the Lord.


Fathers, do not provoke your children, lest they become discouraged.


Mark 10:32-40 Now they were on the road, going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was going before them; and they were amazed. And as they followed they were afraid. Then He took the twelve aside again and began to tell them the things that would happen to Him;


"Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and to the scribes; and they will condemn Him to death and deliver Him to the Gentiles;
 
"and they will mock Him, and scourge Him, and spit on Him and kill Him. And the third day He will rise again."


Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to Him, saying, "Teacher, we want You to do for us whatever we ask."


And He said to them, "What do you want Me to do for you?"


They said to Him, "Grant us that we may sit, one on Your right Hand and the other on Your left, In Your glory."


But Jesus said to them, "You do not know what you ask, Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?"


They said to Him, "We are able." So Jesus said to them, "You will indeed drink the cup that I drink, and with the baptism I am baptized with you will be baptized;
 
"but to sit on My right hand and on the left is not mine to give you; but it is for those for whom it is prepared."


Ephesians 5:14-33 Therefore He says; "Awake, you who sleep, Arise from the dead, And Christ will give you light."


See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise.


redeeming the time, because the days are evil.


Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is.


And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit,


speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord,


giving thanks always for all things to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,


submitting to one another in the fear of God.


Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord.


For the husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is head of the church, and He is the Savior of the body.


Therefore, just as the church is subject to Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in everything.


Husbands, love your wives just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her,


that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word,


that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish.


So husbands ought to love their own wives as their own bodies; he who loves his wife loves himself.


For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as the Lord does the church.


For we are members of His body, of His flesh and of His bones,


"for this reason  a man shall leave his father and mother  and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh."


This is a great mystery, but I speak concerning Christ and the church.


Nevertheless let each one of you in particular so love his own wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.


Ephesians 6:1-4 Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.


"Honor your father and mother," which is the first commandment with promise;


"that it may be well with you and you may live long on the earth."


And you, fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the training and admonition of the Lord.
