The ancient laws made every father a Priest in his own home.<br \/>\na. Adam was to teach his family.<br \/>\nb. Job sacrificed for his children.<br \/>\nc. Abraham was priest in his house.<br \/>\nd. Israel were to teach in the home by clothing \u00a0worn, eating habits, conduct, farming the land, and even printing scriptures on the door post.<br \/>\n2. Religious teaching is more important than food, shelter, or clothing.<\/p>\n<p><strong> II: God Left Us Definite Orders Concerning the Home. Eph. 5:25-33<\/strong><br \/>\n1. &#8220;Wives submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.&#8221;<br \/>\n2.
