Robbing parents

Robbing parents

Whoso robbeth his father or his mother, and saith, It is no transgression; the same is the companion of a destroyer (Proverbs 28:24).

How do you rob your father or your mother? Not necessarily by taking hold of their money or property but also robbing them of your attention and love when they become old. Many Christians do not take proper care of their parents once they have settled abroad. Though they may send money regularly and talk to them frequently, they do not visit their aged parents with their families to spend quality time with them. Parents do not need mere money and telecommunication but also personal love and care of their children.

If the children legally justify their robbery of the money or property of their parents on some excuse, they are called the companion of a destroyer, who is none but the devil who comes but to steal and destroy.
