SERMON g: SECURE YOUR HOME

P. Arnold Perona / Ephesians 5:22-33 - 6:1-4

BUILD SECURING YOUR HOME BY FOLLOWING THE MODEL GOD MADE FOR EACH
PERSON IN THE FAMILY

|. THE WIFE'S ROLE & RESPONSIBILITIES

2Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord. “For the husband is the head of the wife as
Christ is the head of the church, His body, of which He is the Savior. “Now as the church submits

to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.

ll. THE HUSBAND'S ROLE & RESPONSIBILITIES

Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her °to make

her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the Word, “and to present her to

himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless.
In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife
loves himself. After all, no one ever hated his own body, but he feeds and cares for it, just as
Christ does the church - 3°for we are members of His body. *\"For this reason a man will leave his
father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.” “This is a
profound mystery - but | am talking about Christ and the church. “However, each one of you also
must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.

lll. THE CHILDREN’S ROLE & RESPONSIBILITIES

‘Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. “Honor your father and mother’ - which is

the first commandment with a promise - *“that it may go well with you and that you may enjoy

long life on the earth.”

IV. THE PARENTS' ROLE & RESPONSIBILITIES

“Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of

the Lord.

SERMON OUTLINE r|

BRICK x BRICK aae42

SERMON g: SECURE YOUR HOME

P. Arnold Perona / Ephesians 5:22-33 - 6:1-4 ; Colossians 3:18-21

“No success anywhere else can compensate for failure in the home.”

Arguably, we can be successful in the eyes of men in our career, at work, in school; we can be

everybody's idol for our social contribution in our chosen field, but if wefail at home, we have failed

in God's eyes.

In our passages, God's Truth speaks to us - as husbands, as wives, as parents, as children, and as

families - in a very special place that is very close to our heart: H .

Beforehand, Paul expounds on the believer's anticipated transformation—putting on the new self
in Christ and regarding the earthly nature as dead (Col. 3:1-17).

Then, he explains four specific commands in two particular divisions that can shield our family
from the world and secure our home in the Lord if we would take it home and live it out in

committed obedience.

I. WIVES,S TO YOUR HUSBANDS. (Eph, 5:22-24; Col. 3:18)

of* Submission is defined as the wife respecting her husband's role as head the home.

* Submission is commanded because it is “fitting in the Lord”.

* Submission is to be done “in the Lord”

THINK ON Til: What prevents you from respectfully submitting to your husband? What can
you do to overcome this hesitation to be a wife after God's own heart?

ll. HUSBANDS,L_C«XYOUR WIVES. (Eph, 5:25-28; Col. 3:19)

* Loving your wife is set upon the highest standard: ‘As Christ loved the Church and gave
Himself up for her’.

* Loving your wife unconditionally makes it a joy for her to submit respectfully.
* Loving your wife is to be done by “not being harsh with them”.

THINK ON THiS: What hinders you from lovingly leading your wife? What can you do to prevail
over your reluctance to be a husband after God's own heart?

BUILDING DEEP: BRICK x BRICK

SERMON g:; SECURE YOUR HOME

___________ill, CHILDREN, O YOUR PARENTS. (Eph. 6:1-3; Col. 3:20)

* Obeying and honoring demonstrate a heart that knows, loves, and fears God.

* Obeying and honoring must be done because “it pleases the Lord”.

* Obeying and honoring is to be “in everything’.

TSN ON THIS: What makes you hesitate in obeying and honoring your parents? What can
you do to be an obedient, honoring child after God's own heart?

IV. FATHERS, DO NOTE YOUR CHILDREN. (Eph. 6:4; Col. 3:21)

+ Not exasperating means not infusing children with anger or futility about doing what is

right.

+ Not exasperating keeps them from despair about righteousness.

* |nstead, fathers are to “bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord”. (Prov. 2:6)

Ts ON TIS: What predisposes you to exasperating your children? What can you do to
overcome these tendencies and be parents after God's own heart?

FINAL THOUGHTS: Paul gives basic, but emphatic rules for spouses, parents, and children. By
taking home and living out our Christian faith according to God's Word, we become a household
that is secure from the world in Him. Apart from our committed obedience to the Lord and His
Word, we will never be able to remove the persistent dark clouds over our heads which He alone
can take away.

Ags ON T'S: No one is in a better position than our own family to affirm our walk in our
God-ordained role. What will they say about you if asked?

‘And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving
thanks to God the Father through Him.”
(Colossians 3:17)

ABOUT SBCF

Subic Bay Community of Faith started in the summer of 2010 when a vision of church planting in
Subic Bay Freeport Zone was laid in the hearts of John Phillip and Mei Chua Chiaco. On
Sepiember 25, 2010, thirty-five people mei for the first worship service with Rev. Noel Panioja,
assisted by his loving wife Jenny Pantoja serving as the Lead Pastor/Church Planter of the team.
A year later, Rev. Maurice Adam Rivera was called io continue the spiritual leadership of SBCF.

While the church over the years continued to participate in numerous community-based
ministries such as outreaches, medical missions, church planting, fellowship groups, ministering
to the ministers, and other similar activities, ihe Lord steered the leadership of His Church to
prioritize discipleship and focus on the internal growth of those called to SBCF. Through His
leading and voice, the mission of SBCF became clear: to Develop Dynamic Disciples by leading
others to cultivate their inner life through Christ Jesus.

Today, SBCF continues to champion the call to Christian authenticity by prioritizing our own

relationship with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We encourage people of all ages and

thebackgrounds to come and experience joy and resteciness only Christ can bring. Worship with

us, and come as you are! Welcome io the SBCF family!

ABOUT THE SERMON SERIES

BUILDING DEEP: BRICK x BRICK
In ourjourney as disciples of Christ Jesus, we are called to live a life that continuously develops depth of
spiritual understanding, As we mature, it is no longer enough to just know the fundamentals of our faith, but
necessary to build a much deeper relationship with our God, We must learn to understand the purpose of
the personal ministry He gave to each one of us, and learn to work together in order to attain the whole
measure of the plans He prepared for His Church,

In order to achieve this, one must continue building on what was already prepared, and start building up

steadily, brick by brick. It is through the steady additions of these sturdy and solid “bricks” that a house built

to last could be ready for its intencled purpose.
We have created 13 sermons from the Book of Ephesians meant to build on the foundation we have already
started and help us grow deeper in our Christian faith by understanding the nature and purpose of His
Church, and how we each play a pivotal role in the Body of Christ.
Come and journey with us as we build the beginnings of our superstructure in Christ Jesus, Brick by Brick.
