1 | Question regarding father's role. | Col 3:20 | pax_rock2004 | 175447 | ||
I'd like to throw this question out to those more versed in the Scriptures than myself. Is there anywhere in the Bible that says that the father (or parents)is(are)the head of the child? I've never found it and from my understanding of what headship is it seems that the use of the term wouldn't quite fit. If anyone knows if it is anywhere in there could you let me know? | ||||||
2 | Question regarding father's role. | Col 3:20 | Barach | 175448 | ||
1 Cor 11:3 states: "But I want you to understand that Christ is the head of every man, and the man is the head of a woman, and God is the head of Christ." If children are to obey their parents (Col 3:20) and since the man is the head of the woman, he is also head of the children as well. Even a cursory examination of the Hebrew text (O.T.) will show that the man is clearly the head of the household. I do not believe there is a specific scripture though to show you where it says the man is the head of the children. It is definitely implied. There's no scripture that I have found that says thou shall not dumb rubbish in my neighbor's lawn, but Jesus words that you should love your neighbor as yourself cover the endless scripture it would take to cover every scenario that could occur in life in which I should show love towards my neighbor. If our heart is rightly trained by God through his word, we won't need a scripture for every through and movement we make in life. I went off into a small tangent, but I hope this helps in regards to your question on headship and a specific scipture that I don't believe exists. |
