I'm really in love with a woman I've come to know. I love her character, her beliefs, her spirit and soul. She's also expressed to me how she's in love with me like she's never been with anyone before. We are very compatible. The problem is that my mother would not accept my girlfriend because of her ethnicity and that really hurts. It's a culture that has been going on in my country since colonialism. Would I be dishonoring my mother if I continue the relationship with my girlfriend anyway despite her dislike towards that specific race?

Because not only will we be respecting our parwnts, we will be respecting othwrs in the community like doctors, teachers, co workers and bosses ect and thats how we are remembered and recognized is by our actions. Regardless of our parents actions towards us or others in out lives we dont have to follow the negative traits. we have the choice to honor and make our own legacy's, traditions and/or our own way of how people percive us by how we conduct ourselves and how we treat other's.

I believe honoring your parents includes acknowledging when they hurt you, when their behavior wasn't acceptable and choosing to get healing from that and release them. It includes setting healthy boundaries with the way they treat you. I know this is different when you are living in their house than when you are out.

[@hawaiiman33]

First of all. The Ten Commandments were sorely misinterpreted. Honor thy Mother and thy Father, actually means honor our Father, Creator of all things with his light, and the Earth our Mother. They are both living beings who were given life by father and mother nurtures us with the elements of her many physical forms. We have gotten away from knowing that Father is our actual Father he just doesn’t do sibling labels. That’s a human thing for he nor mother are not human.

I am assuming you are referring to "Fathers do not exasperate your children." I would absolutely agree with that including, "spiritual fathers." That does not change honor though. Here is one of the questions I like to pose when talking about this. It helps to clear of few things up and I wish I would have put it in this video. Maybe I should do a part 2. Is it more honorable to pretend like your parents were/are perfect for fear of dishonoring them or talking bad about them, OR is it honorable to be honest about their treatment of you(at least how their treatment made you feel) so that you can release them and walk in freedom, allowing them to do the same? Of course, most people would agree with the second one. So honor is a position of our heart, that we can reclaim. We can also work on guarding our heart and maintaining honor to the best of our ability. Sometimes that may involve boundaries and removing yourself from a situation. Thank you for the comment

What if ur parents are not in christ, and abusive? Also as with the question below, I wonder which definition of honor is being applied here.

[@dougcrew1956]

Hi Karma. I replied to the definition of honor question below. As for your part, most of what we deal with has to do with forgiving parents and authorities figures for past hurts. A position such as the one you are describing is extremely difficult when it comes to honoring parents. We often say that you are not responsible for the wounding that happened to you but you are responsible for your response to it. That sounds harsh on the surface but what it is really saying is that if you continue to walk in unforgiveness and bitterness, the only person it is hurting is you. For this, I like the description of honor that explains that we don't honor people because they deserve the honor. We honor people because WE are honorable. In other words, we honor all people. Romans 12:20 says, "Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves." While I realize that this is easy to say and much harder to do, particularly in the situation you described, there is freedom in it for the one who chooses to honor. A few things, honoring someone doesn't mean you accept the abuse. Honor can involve setting boundary lines and even leaving to find help. If you are not able to leave, then protect yourself the best you can. Depending on the relationship it could be that displaying honor towards parents can break them. Jack tells the story of repenting to his dad for ceasing to be his son and cutting him off. His dad broke down and said that he was the one who should be asking Jack for forgiveness. Jack's dad treated Jack the only way he understood. He knew it was wrong but he was so hurt he didn't know how to love Jack. I hope this helps.

Although in my heart i already forgave them. But they still have that very high pride as a parent. In Matthew 12:46-50 While Jesus was still talking to the crowd, His mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting to speak to Him. Someone told Him, your mother and brothers are standing outside wanting to speak to you. He replied to him, WHO IS MY MOTHER AND WHO IS MY BROTHERS? Pointing to His disciples, He said. HERE ARE MY MOTHER AND BROTHERS. FOR WHOSOEVER DOES THE WILL OF MY FATHER IN HEAVEN IS MY BROTHER AND SISTER AND MOTHER.
