1. The Bible does no such thing as you claim there. Rather, Paul and Peter, both of whom lived in the Land of Canaan, during the time that was the Last Days of God's Judgement against the Nation of Israel(and Judah) under the Law of Moses, for reasons best known to them chose to assert the stance of the Old Law of Moses where married women are concerned. Jesus Christ, God's New Law, however, made it abundantly clear that in the Kingdom of God

▶ Marriage is of the world of men and not of the Kingdom of God - Luke 20 vs 34 - 36. This is to echo the fact that God Himself cursed marriage from the beginning
and that which is cursed cannot be of the Kingdom of God.
▶ There is only one head over a man and a woman in His Kingdom, and He alone is that Head/Teacher/Authority/Master -
▶ All men and women in His Kingdom are equaled (No hierarchies) exist in His Kingdom-
▶ There are no blessings in the Kingdom of God on those who choose marriage; only those who chose to live as Eunuchs have God's special blessings -
▶ Those among the women who would choose to have children should weep for themselves and their children for it is those of them who would live as Eunuch(and the barren among them) that are blessed by God -

■ I don't know if you have written your own Bible. God never caused marriage, In Genesis 1:26-27 and 2:18-24, God commands man and woman to leave father and mother and become husband and wife through uniting in a one-flesh act that seals their love and which can bring forth children. The formation of family is part of humanity's call to a loving stewardship of creation and culture. God is the author of every creation.
■ Also, Jesus first miracle was At a wedding party. My favorite where he turned water to wine. So with that, marriage or union is established in the kingdom of God. As it was in the beginning is now, and ever shall be, world without end Amen

Kobojunkie:
1. Right there in Genesis 3 vs 16, the same God who had earlier defined marriage as an agreement that is formed by a man and a woman placed His curse on the woman in the union. He also cursed the woman in childbearing in the same verse. Clearly, the fact that her end— post sin— was worse than her beginning— before sin—, in both cases meant cursed her. And that which is cursed passes on its cursed stated to that which it enters into agreement with or births.

2. That is a silly conclusion on your part though. Does the fact that He also ate and drank with prostitutes and taxpayers equally mean that their lifestyle was equally established as a part of the Kingdom of God then?

"The husband is the head of his family. He should strive to be wiser, smarter, & wealthier than his wife. But in any case, a wife must defer to her husband's authority as her leader. He should listen to her, but after he listens, she must accept his decisions. He's in charge."

This is the traditional and religious view of marriage. Do you agree with it? I subscribe to the modern view but I worry about its practicality.

My view is that every couple has a different dynamic and their families should be ruled by consensus, but the partner who is more competent in a particular area should be deferred to more often when dealing with issues in that area. If the wife is an accountant, she'll control finances.

The person you are replying is a stark atheist who is also mentally deranged, so do not waste your time arguing with him/her. He or she quotes Bible out of context to attack defame and to confuse. Do not even bother.

FatherCHRISTMAS:


Let her be. I like her that way. You have to be an atheist to understand truth. The moment you are able to hit atheism, that means you are no longer following blindly. That's means you are on the path to discovering truth.
You cant find truth without first questioning the age old teachings

Kelechi009:


For one, you are a very stupid person for quoting me & saying this rubbish to me this early morning.

Two, I have no hate or love business with atheist or atheism. You do not need to quote Bible out of context to prove atheism or disprove it, just be an atheist in peace and leave quoting bible for reference. If not mental illness, I do not see how you despise something but you need to quote it for reference, like are you crazy...what the hell is that?!

Three, I won't even be surprised if this is your second moniker used to attack people on Nairaland because most of you are mentally deranged.

FatherCHRISTMAS:



1000Capacity isn't stupid. That aside, you don't correct using hate and insult
Go in peace

Kelechi009:


Go in peace ke?! No oh, I am not a preacher of love, I am not here to preach love at all.

I am not trying to correct you, I am here to tell you that you're mentally deranged, you both should get your head checked in the psychiatric wards.

Mental illness is YOU trying to quote a text from a book you do not believe in, a book you hate & despise, a book you believe is a myth but you constantly quote it. You must be really CRAZY!

If you know you are not a BASTARD, refrain from this mentally ill behaviour.

Nobody is the HEAD. Husband and wife are co-captains, and each have their own roles to fulfill, both equally important.

False. In any social structure or organisation, there must be a leader. This applies to all animals, except solitary animals. Marriage is the most basic human social structure, and for it to be successful, there must be a defined leader/head. Now, that leader does not mean dictatorship, and it might even not necessarily be the man. In some cases the woman takes on the responsibility of leading the family.

Societies without a leader are often don't achieve any form of greatness and are often subservient to those with strong and defined leaders.

.."This is the traditional and religious view of marriage. Do you agree with it? I subscribe to the modern view but I worry about its practicality."

These days, when making decisions as the Father and head of the House, one has to put his Wife ( The Woman) into consideration. You consult with her, brainstorm with her.

..When no be MILITARY MARRIAGE - Obey before complain.

If not, peace no go too dey the house. ..

Yes, na man be the head of the house but na women get house. The women as wives dey make the home lively and interesting to stay.

A home without a woman as wife, dey dey boring and lonely.

The above paragraphs are some of the reasons why as a man, when making a decision in your home consider to carry your wife along.

No forget say, in many homes today, na the women dey cover the secrets of the man.

{ Your view is perfect;
I love you;
Jesus loves you more}

These are true!!!

Kobojunkie:
You lied! Jesus Christ said His Love is only available to those who obey His teachings and commandments. So where do you get off lying to people who don't even care for Him that they are loved by Him?

1000Capacity:
∆ Jesus clearly recognized that one of the insults hurled against him was that he was “a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!” 7:34. Do you understand now

Kobojunkie:
What has this response to do with what Jesus Christ is recorded to have instead said though?.

If I, for example, recognize your disdain for me, does that in some way provide substantiated for what are your assumptions?

■ We are described based on our actions and words. Christ, according to Luke 7:34 made sure he brought people who were questionable characters close to him. This is loving your neighbors regardless of their inadequacy.
■ If christ has said he doesn't want to be seen with sinners, how will he have preached his messages of God's love? Christ came and died for the world, that's an act of selfless love. He died for you.

31 “What shall I say about the people of this time? What can I compare them to? What are they like?
32 They are like children sitting in the marketplace. One group of children calls to the other children and says, ‘We played flute music for you, but you did not dance;
we sang a sad song, but you did not cry.’
33 John the Baptizer came and did not eat the usual food or drink wine. And you say, ‘He has a demon inside him.’
34 The Son of Man came eating and drinking. And you say, ‘Look at him! He eats too much and drinks too much wine! He is a friend of tax collectors and other sinners!’
35 But wisdom is shown to be right by those who accept it.” - Luke 7 vs 31 - 35

9 “I have loved you as the Father has loved me. Now continue in my love.
10 I have obeyed my Father’s commands, and he continues to love me. In the same way, if you obey my commands, I will continue to love you.
11 I have told you these things so that you can have the true happiness that I have. I want you to be completely happy.
12 This is what I command you: Love each other as I have loved you.
13 The greatest love people can show is to die for their friends.
14 You are my friends if you do what I tell you to do.
15 I no longer call you servants, because servants don’t know what their master is doing. But now I call you friends because I have told you everything that my Father told me. - John 15 vs 9 - 15
