Cursing Parents is Worthy of Death

The child who curses father and mother must die according to the Bible.

Matthew 15:4 "

For God said, ‘Honor your father and mother,’ and, ‘The one who speaks evil of father or mother is to be put to death.’"

Matthew 15:4 "For God commanded, saying, ‘Honor thy father and mother,’ and, ‘He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death.’"

"Curse" means "to belittle," "to make light of," and "to be contemptuous of."

Nearly every adult child in our children's generation from the 1970's on would be guilty of this mistreatment of parents.

2 Timothy 3:1-5

Difficult Times Will Come

3 But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come.

2 For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, slanderers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, [a]haters of good, 4 treacherous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5 holding to a form of [b]godliness although they have denied its power; avoid such people as these."

If you are an adult child who has treated your parents contemptuously without regard for them, disrespectfully rejecting, gossiping or any other way of demeaning them, then you are guilty of this and worthy of death. The only thing to do to be right with God is to repent and begin to obey God.
