God given roles in the family

 by David Long

Husband's role: "For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the savior of the body" (Eph. 5:23).

Wife's role: "Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord" (Eph. 5:22). 

Children's role: "Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. Honor thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;) That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth" (Eph. 5:1-3).
