EPH 5:22 Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord.
NUMBER OF WORDS USED Wives – 41 words Husbands – 115 words
LOVE AND RESPECT EPH 5:22-33
RESPONSE OF THE WIFE EPH 5:22-24
EPH 5:22 Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord.
JOH 14:2b . . . If you loved me, you would be glad that I am going to the Father, for the Father is greater than I.
EPH 5:23 For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior.
EPH 5:24 Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.
RESPONSIBILITY OF THE HUSBAND EPH 5:26-31
EPH 5:23 For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior.
ROM 5:12 Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men, because all sinned--
EPH 5:25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her
EPH 5:26 to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word,
EPH 5:27 and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless.
EPH 5:28 In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.
EPH 5:29 After all, no one ever hated his own body, but he feeds and cares for it, just as Christ does the church--
EPH 5:30 for we are members of his body.
REFLECTION OF CHRIST AND THE CHURCH EPH 5:31-33
EPH 5:31 "For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh."
EPH 5:32 This is a profound mystery--but I am talking about Christ and the church.
EPH 5:33 However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.
LOVE AND RESPECT RESPONSE OF THE WIFE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE HUSBAND REFLECTION OF CHRIST AND THE CHURCH
LOVE AND RESPECT WHEN ALIGNED WITH GOD’S WORD MY MARRIAGE REFLECTS THE LOVE OF CHRIST AND THE SUBMISSION OF THE CHURCH
