1) How do we honor our employers?
-In Deed - "With fear and trembling" -In Word - "Do all things without grumbling or questioning." -In Thought - "Not as people-pleasers"
2) Why do we honor our bosses? By honoring them rightly, we honor Christ. We honor our employers because: -They are a God-ordained authority. -They are God's image bearers. -They might be part of God's elect. -They are part of God's means to sanctify us. -They are God's provision for us.
