Philippians 2:1-5

1. If you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any fellowship with the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion,
2. then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and purpose.
3. Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves.
4. Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others.
5. Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus:

Malachi 4:4-6

4. "Remember the law of my servant Moses, the decrees and laws I gave him at Horeb for all Israel.
5. "See, I will send you the prophet Elijah before that great and dreadful day of the LORD comes.
6. He will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers; or else I will come and strike the land with a curse."

Ephesians 6:1-4

1. Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.
2. "Honor your father and mother"--which is the first commandment with a promise--
3. "that it may go well with you and that you may enjoy long life on the earth."
4. Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord.
