TEXT: Mark 10:3-9, Eph 5:21-24, 1 Pet 3:1-4
Recap
-
In every good marriage, there is mutual submission. Husband and wife must submit one to another. No party should seek to get their own way every time.
-
A woman's submission to God is evident in the extent of her submission to her husband's authority. You cannot claim to be spiritual and disregard your husband.
-
Even if your husband is an unbeliever, you will not win him over through argument and rebellion. Let your lifestyle of humility and submission be your message.
-
As a woman, your focus should be more on inward adornment than external polish. True beauty comes from within.
-
Even though husband and wife are partners in marriage, they are not equals. No boat can have more than one captain. Women should recognize their husbands as their leaders.
-
Men should love their wives unconditionally. Your love for her should not be predicated on her qualities, characteristics or conduct.
-
Every man has the capacity to love his wife like Christ loves the church. Sacrifice not infatuation keeps marriage. A man must be willing to die for his wife.
-
Speak the right words over your wife. Build her up through the things that you say. Understand her love language and use it lavishly.
