A Wife's Greatest Weapon. by Lateralmaths(m): 9:56am On Jan 27, 2015
I think the reason most wives have issues in their marriages is because they don't put to use their greatest weapon.

A wife's greatest weapon is stooping to conquer. It sounds foolish but that's the truth. Men have ego and the solution to that is stooping to conquer. A man responds to a submissive woman.

Find the secrets of wives whose husbands listen to them.You will find out that such wives understand this mystery.

What do you think is a wife's greatest weapon?

What about her ability to take care of her home and her man?
What if she is so submissive but the home is so unkempt, she is a poor cook and so on

if she is submissive, then she can be corrected.Which means she is teachable.

A wife's greatest weapon? Are women now soldiers fighting imaginary wars? So if women have weapons do men have weapons too?

Weapon could also mean asset. We are not talking of weapons of war but weapons for building and keeping homes.

How do you know that all wives who have issues in their marriages do so as a result of unsubmissiveness? Did you conduct a survey on that?

Keeping homes or keeping marriages? Is it just the wives that are responsible for keeping marriages?

you go like quarrel pass food o. homes and marriages are the same in this context. its not the sole responsibility of one party to keep the home,true. But it pays if each partner sees it as his or her sole responsibility.

Your created a thread and so you must be ready for constructive criticism and varying views different from yours. Its a good thing you know that the job of keeping a marriage lies with both a husband and a wife. My problem with your post is that you generalised without concrete knowledge of what you are saying. You still have not answered my earlier question so it shows you dnt have proof to deliberate on your stance. You are not in every home to know what kind of issues faced by all women in Nigeria. Marriage is damn too complex and multi faceted for you to narrow most issues to be caused by unsubmissivesness afterall men are not jesus. Just as our faces are different so also are our problems.

Ephesians 5.22-28
Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.

For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.

Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.

Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;

That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,

That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself.

For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:

So comparing the number of people you have counselled to millions of others you have not, is that enough to conclude that most issues are as a result of unsubmissiveness?

This is still not the answer to my question. We know this scripture very well but very few people practise it.
