In this powerful message, Pastor Chris shares fundamental
truths from the Word about marriage for everyone who
desires true fulfillment. God has given us very clear and
unambiguous definitions in the Word and Rev. Chris brings
them to light in this teaching. If anyone you love is about to
get married but has not listened to this message, plead with
them to suspend the wedding preparations and listen to this
message; you would have saved them a lot of future
trouble. Below are a few quotes and nuggets, but you sure
know you need to order for the full teaching at Christ
Embassy Online Store .
Q1: “’Husband’ does not mean the male partner in a
marriage. ‘Husband’ means ‘master’! Ignorance of this is
the reason for a lot of problems Christians are having in
their marriage…”
Q2: “Marriage in Christianity for most people is just a flop.
Why? Because they don’t agree with God’s definitions. They
have theirs. Many Christian wives erroneously believe they
are equal partners with their husbands…”
Q3: “If most women had their father bold enough to talk to
them, they’d be very successful in their marriage and they’d
be very happy people. Most women have never been taught
by their fathers. That’s their biggest problem-they don’t
know who a man is. They think he’s another woman…”
Q4: “In a marriage, you have the man, who is the head of
that union, and because he is the head of that union, it is
important (for his wife) to understand him…until you know
who you have married…it’s like working for somebody or
serving somebody and not knowing what he wants…When
you say that you are marrying a man, you are coming under
his authority. When you decide not to subject yourself to
that authority, you are a rebel and God’s not gonna accept
what you are doing. The Bible says the man is the head of
the woman…You’re not authority sharers even though
you’re both heirs to the Kingdom of God, because there,
there’s neither male nor female, but we’re functioning here.
That’s why you were given the body of a woman and he the
body of a male…”
Q5: “Before the woman was formed, Adam was not lonely;
he was ‘alone’ and there’s a big difference…”
Q6: “You don’t need a marriage seminar; you need a Word
seminar.”
Q7: “If you’d just listen to the Word of God, you won’t have
all this fighting in your marriage.”
Q8: “No husband wants another mother; he’s had one all his
life. He doesn’t want an older sister; he probably had one.
Your secret is in obedience, in listening to your husband, in
doing those things that please him. When you don’t do those
things that please your husband, you take the role of a
mother or an older sister. What happens automatically is he
starts seeing you differently. The reaction he has for those
that try to tell him what to do will be the reaction he’ll have
towards you…”
Q9: “A man loves the one he serves and the one that serves
him. He fights the one that is at the same level with him.”
Q10: “Don’t make your life hard. To be happy in your
marriage and in your home is the easiest thing in the world.
Just take your role. Take your place. That place that God
gave you is a beautiful place, a place of peace, love,
excellence. When you come out of it, you’d find it’s not a
husband you have; you call him a husband but he’s not…”
Q11: “Learn to listen to your husband. Learn it. Practise it.
Tell yourself you’re going to do it. That is where your
beauty is. Once you stop listening all your beauty
evaporates. It’s something you probably don’t know. Beauty
is in obedience. That’s where the glory is. Once you’re not
obedient, once you’re harsh and talk anyhow to your
husband, your beauty evaporates; he can’t see it anymore…”
Q12: “You can have a better life. Why should a marriage
become a war zone? You can have a better life.”
