Sermon title: Respect and Readiness

1) Respect God’s Ways: “He will go on before the Lord, in the spirit and power of Elijah…”
The Bible shows us good people to copy.

2) Respect God’s Watchers: “…to turn the hearts of the parents to their children…”
Children must respect parents and authority too.

3) Respect God’s Word: “…and the disobedient to the wisdom of the righteous…”
Read the Bible’s stories by yourself, and also with others.

Why? “…to make ready a people prepared for the Lord." (Luke 1:17)
