NewLittle children, or grown children?

Thu, 03/31/16

My understanding of 2 Cor. 12:14 is that, in context, Paul is referring to little children - that is, dependents. If I am correct, he is not implying that adult children should not provide care for their elderly parents. 1 Tim. 5:4 seems to corroborate this, and 1 Tim. 5:8 seems to emphasize it.
