it dont matter if the man submits to the lord or not cause he still does what he wants to do. we dont. we have to follow his every command as if he was the lord himself. you mean to tell me that this isnt bias? you can have that thought. i only need a man that fears god, follows god and has me at his side. he submits to me as i submit to him. we give one another 100/100. i dont need that 50/50 stuff cause i'm only getting half and he's getting half. regardless of how you look at it. it is still bias and unfair. whos to say that i'm not sanctifying him? women can be the reason that men are doing the will of god, not the other way around all the time.

Theres alot that is in Gods word that is contrary to the rights and privlidges we've come to accept and expect in todays society. No one should ever question Gods motive for outlining our roles as he does. And yes, he gets pretty specific. I suppose...God knows nothing about marriage and he must be just a hater of women, why else would he have us in a submissive roll... NOW... as society chooses to go their own way and away from Gods will and instruction... go figure.... divorce is rampant, the family unit breaks down but us... ladies... we have our rights. We have the right to be strong and independant and alone or in strife because our families are in turmoil... I dont like alot of what the Bible has to say about a womans role... Just cause I dont like it doesnt mean its not right or a better way as instructed by GOD!!! I'm pretty sure God see's the BIG picture in our relationships. Oh & I'll pull my tongue outa my cheek long enough to state that NO I dont think God is a hater of women, I think the ways of the Lord are beyond our comprehension and what he's revealed to us in his word we should try to find a way past our love of ourselves to do it His way cause I'm sure he had a reason for it. Not saying that I am always perfect at submission, also I have a husband who loves me so I'm blessed, I'm just saying that we should try it Gods way and we may just find a beautiful relationship developing with both the Lord & our husband. I try hard to stop being pumped up in "self"... some days i get it better than others. :eek:

This is why it is important to marry a Christian. If a woman marries a man that is of God he will love her as Christ loves the church and gave himself for it. A Christian woman would have no problem submitting to a Godly man that rules his house by the Word of God.

AMEN!! well put. Also, I think if when you go into your marriage if its a covenant between God, Your Husband & you... well it stands a chance to work, if one of you doesnt believe, then the promises he makes to God, a God he doesnt believe just to make the woman he loves happy on their big day, well what good is that? so its you & God & thats it. Dont be unequally yolked by choice no matter how much you love the man, pray for his softening of the heart & for him to receive the Lord, then marry him after.

2Tim3...
.........says that if anyone that has a form of godliness denies God's power in their lives, you are to have nothing to do with them. They are the kind that worm theirway into weak-willed women's homes to gain control over their lives. Unfortunatelymy husband was that and also my soulmate, very damaged and abusive to me and children in everyway. After seventeen years of believing in the impossible in his healing process his compulsive lying nature and secret activities has totally destroyed us and the fact that for the last nine years of marriage, I've tried to get him through his ACC sensitive claim, which is the reason why all this is manefesting....Please pray for us as he only has two options now...jail or hospital...if he is suicidal again, and when he still comes to my door thinking i'm the same niave' grl that's gona believe him today, he really has got a depraved mind, and is truly rejected as far as the faith is concerned.

NO>>>Sometimes you need to get the hell outa there...Greflo Dollar urged this old black lady in his church to leave her husband but she was old school, in her black christian values, and he ended up killing her.

You serve God, he is the only one that knows all and who is being totally honest and integral and he will protect your life if you let him lead you and you test everything, as well as your own common self and wisdom, and dignity in the fact that you are woman, and daughter of zion, and deserve the very very best...as it is the husband that will be at the foot of God's throne that will be giving Father an account of how he looked after the wife that God gave him. God Bless All

The Bible states that the woman is submit to her husband as unto the Lord. Submission is unto the Lord first, so if your husband requests something of you that is not "unto the Lord" you do not submit. In Ephesians also it says we are all to submit to one another; submission is the lifestyle of all Christians, men and women alike.
