How does grace influence the obedience of children to their parents?

Answered in 1 source

Grace transforms the expectation of obedience into a desire to honor parents joyfully (Romans 8:1-2).

Under grace, obedience is not merely a requirement but becomes a heartfelt response to God's love. Romans 8:1-2 proclaims that there is no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus, highlighting that obedience flows from a position of acceptance and freedom in Him. As believers understand the grace that has been bestowed upon them through faith in Christ, they are motivated to honor their parents and authorities with joy rather than obligation, reflecting the grace they've received.
