Marriage is a Blessing

Its funny to hear some people manipulate scripture when in comes to marriage. I have heard some people use Ephesians 5:22 (“Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord) as a stand alone verse and not understand it in the context it is meant to be used. Some men think that because God states for the wife to submit to the husbands, and combine that with the scripture stating men are the head of the house, they think that the women should give up all rights to them, as it is ordained by the Bible.

Unfortunately, these marriages don’t fair well in time. They end up with strife, immoral behavior, and even divorce. If we continue reading in Ephesians 5:25, 28, and 31, you will notice they all have one thing in common, that husbands ought to love their wives. I don’t know about you, but if God repeats something in the Bible 3 times in a row, I sure take it as absolutely necessary!

What is love? If you are uncertain, check out 1 Corinthians 13. I will be making a post on this particular scripture in the near future. For now, stick with what God has spoken to us, for husbands to love their wives.
