James 1:19-20 (NKJV)
So then, my beloved brethren, let
every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath; [20] for the wrath of
man does not produce the righteousness of God.
This is a good phrase. I like it.
Proverbs 15:18 (NKJV)
A wrathful man stirs up strife,
But he who is slow to anger allays contention.
Proverbs 15:18 (NLT)
A hot-tempered person starts
fights; a cool-tempered person stops them.
Ephesians 4:26 (NKJV)
"Be angry, and do not
sin": do not let the sun go down on your wrath,
Colossians 3:1-15 (NKJV)
If then you were raised with
Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the
right hand of God. [2] Set your mind on things above, not on things on the
earth. [3] For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. [4] When
Christ who is our life appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory.
[5] Therefore put to death your members which are on the earth: fornication,
uncleanness, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry. [6]
Because of these things the wrath of God is coming upon the sons of
disobedience, [7] in which you yourselves once walked when you lived in them.
[8] But now you yourselves are to put off all these: anger, wrath, malice,
blasphemy, filthy language out of your mouth. [9] Do not lie to one another,
since you have put off the old man with his deeds, [10] and have put on the new
man who is renewed in knowledge according to the image of Him who created him,
[11] where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcised nor uncircumcised,
barbarian, Scythian, slave nor free, but Christ is all and in all. [12]
Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies,
kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering; [13] bearing with one another, and
forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ
forgave you, so you also must do. [14] But above all these things put on love,
which is the bond of perfection. [15] And let the peace of God rule in your
hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful.

1 Peter 3:1-4 (NKJV)
Wives, likewise, be submissive to
your own husbands, that even if some do not obey the word, they, without a
word, may be won by the conduct of their wives, [2] when they observe your
chaste conduct accompanied by fear. [3] Do not let your adornment be merely
outward-arranging the hair, wearing gold, or putting on fine apparel- [4]
rather let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty
of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God.
1. Women should be the best women
they should be.
Being sloppy and unkempt is not a
virtue.
2. Respect your man
Ephesians 5:3 (NKJV)
But fornication and all
uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as is fitting
for saints;
Wives need love and husbands need
respect!
3. Submit to the leadership of
your husband.
Galatians 3:28 (NKJV)
There is neither Jew nor Greek,
there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are
all one in Christ Jesus.
Colossians 3:18 (NKJV)
Wives, submit to your own
husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.
4. Win without a word. Live the
gospel.
Proverbs 19:13 (NKJV)
A foolish son is the ruin of his
father, And the contentions of a wife are a continual dripping.
Proverbs 21:19 (NKJV)
Better to dwell in the
wilderness, Than with a contentious and angry woman.

June 16 Fathers Day
Ephesians 6:4 (NLT)
Fathers, do not provoke your
children to anger by the way you treat them. Rather, bring them up with the
discipline and instruction that comes from the Lord.
Start with manners. Be respectful
to others.
We are not sinners because we sin;
we sin because we are sinners.
We cannot teach through us until
it has happened to us.
Deuteronomy 6:6-7 (NKJV)
"And these words which I
command you today shall be in your heart.
[7] You shall teach them
diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house,
when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up.

Successful Marriages require:
1.There must be a leaving and a
cleaving.
2. Husbands and wives are to submit
one to the other.
3. You must be filled with the Holy
Spirit again and again and again.
4. The husband must love his wife as
Christ loves the church.
Husbands must be the spiritual
leaders of the family.
Proverbs 31:28 (NKJV)
Her children rise up and call her
blessed; Her husband also, and he praises her:
5. Wives must respect and submit to
their husband.
6. Communication must be constant.
86% of divorces blame communication.
James 1:19 (NKJV)
So then, my beloved brethren, let
every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath;
Ephesians 4:31-32 (NKJV)
Let all bitterness, wrath, anger,
clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice. [32] And be
kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in
Christ forgave you.
A successful marriage consist of two
good forgivers. - Ruth Graham
Fight to resolve not to win.
Ephesians 6:4 (NKJV)
And you, fathers, do not provoke your
children to wrath, but bring them up in the training and admonition of the
Lord.
Bring them up in the training and
admiration of The Lord.
Proverbs 29:15 (NKJV)
The rod and rebuke give wisdom, But a
child left to himself brings shame to his mother.
Proverbs 22:6 (NKJV)
Train up a child in the way he should
go, And when he is old he will not depart from it.
Proverbs 22:6 (NKJV)
Train up a child in the way he should
go, And when he is old he will not depart from it.
Proverbs 22:6 (NKJV)
Train up a child in the way he should
go, And when he is old he will not depart from it.
Put parameters in place in the home.
Things kids can and can not do. Discipline needs to be in place. Loved kids are
disciplined. No discipline is enjoyable!
1 Samuel 3:11-13 (NKJV)
Then the LORD said to Samuel:
"Behold, I will do something in Israel at which both ears of everyone who
hears it will tingle. [12] In that day I will perform against Eli all that I
have spoken concerning his house, from beginning to end. [13] For I have told
him that I will judge his house forever for the iniquity which he knows, because
his sons made themselves vile, and he did not restrain them.
Because God loves us he disciplines
us.
Sinning with abandon and no
discipline from God could mean you are not a child of God.
Dads have the job of getting their
kids to heaven!
The choices of time are binding in
Eternity!
Max Jukes and Jonathan Edwards
