We must ask God to help all of us who respect Christ to be submissive to each other, even as He submitted himself to the people about Him so that He could be their servant-king.
We must ask God to help wives and husbands to submit to each other - wives to be respectful and husbands to be loving and considerate.
We must ask God to help parents and children to submit to each other - help children to obey their parents and parents to act in the best interest of their children, not provoking them.
We must ask God to help employers and employees to submit to each other - employees to render the work for which they are paid and employers to be fair, to show kindness.
We must ask God to help all your people everywhere to live even as Jesus did.
Ephesians 5:21-6:9
Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ And masters, treat your slaves in the same way. Do not threaten them, since you know that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and there is no favoritism with him
