Hey guys, I have been slacking off some, but now we will get back on track! No videotions today, since PL is in RI, and I haven't learned from him how to do it.
Romans 1:28-32
28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
The reason why I brought this section of Romans 1 in was because of what was in there. Look at the list of horrible, discusting, sins that are there. They look bad don't they? Look what other sin is stuck in there. Disobedient to parents.
Usually we get the preception that all of those sins except disobedient to parents are REALLY BAD, like we will go to super hell bad thing, but the truth of the matter is, disobeying your parents is just as bad. Reason why we think disobeying our parents isn't as bad as the others there, is because in our sinful minds, we like to justify whatevdr we do, into thinking its okay. NO, IT IS NOT OKAY!! Why do we disobey them somethimes? They do everything for us! Feed us, buy us clothes, let us live in a house with them, the list goes on baby....
If your parent(s) is in your sight right now, ditch your pride, and tell them your sorry for anything you did against them, and just for the sake of Christ, I am going to call my mom and tell her I'm sorry too!

This passage explains it all about how bad sins are. And like verse 31 says, without love and forgiveness, where would we be?
I respect my family a LOT because of everything they do for me. Even when I am grouchy and in a bad mood. And talking things out really help! They are always forgiving, and it represents Jesus' love for us, he was very, very, eExTrEmElY, forgiving of our sins! And sometimes when people sin, they do it over and over again, like for example taking things out on other people or something, we've all done it and sometimes we don't even realize or mean to do it, which is why being there for each other and praying about it helps out so much.

Amen! I might even use what you said about doing sin over and over again for something to comment and talk about!
Yay!! :)'
