The problem is that biblical honor is not being taught and passed down from generation to generation anymore. The young people of today don’t hear about it, because it isn’t taught to them in our society.
Often what they are learning is situation ethics – that right and wrong depend on the situation. This idea sounds right to someone who has not had the honor of God to influence him.
Honor is not taught at home very much either. A child who sees his father knock his mother across the room or his mother hit his father over the head with a skillet won’t know what honor is. He and his future wife will end up doing the same kinds of things.
If a child sees his parents cheating on their taxes, or lying to the government, or being dishonest with their employers, he will think to himself, “Why should I work my whole life and have nothing when I can get whatever I want by lying?”
He may hear honor preached, but not in church; he’ll hear it in street gangs all across the country, as gang members swear honor and allegiance to one another even to the death.
Almost an entire generation never has experienced God’s honor and presence because they know virtually nothing about being honorable themselves.
They don’t hear biblical honor taught in the Church or in the home. Parents are sending their children to school to learn it, but the schools are not allowed to teach the Bible.
That is why we as parents and believers must take the time to teach honor and integrity to our children.
