This sermon is another in the series on the supremacy of Christ which is underpinned by the overarching principle that Christians are called to do everything ‘in the name of the Lord Jesus’. It is based on the text sometimes referred to as the ‘household code’ and reminds believers that all their human relationships must inalienably be rooted in their identity as followers of Christ. It focuses on the Christian family and its conduct within the home and at work, setting out what the ‘code’ expects of interaction between husband and wife, parents and children, and master and slave (employer and employee in our contemporary context).
