Family / Re: Do U Want A Happy Marriage U Must Submit To Hubby by McWordsworth: 2:29am On May 31, 2020 |
royalads: Fancy words, no doubt. But when does submission entails one can't express his or her opinions? Even children are given room to express themselves much less adults. What is actually stale is the old cliche of making submission sound like a callous 16th century slave driver. Submission in marriage is simply when a woman submits herself to her husband's leadership. And it's natural. The best and most successful ventures are never on a 50-50 basis. Be they business or political And marriage is no different. Partnership has a greater chance of survival when there's clear leadership and a recognised source (not sources) of authority. And by nature's ordinance such responsibility falls on the man -- to lead, to protect and to provide. Talking about balls, many men are loosing theirs already. I call them the 21st century entitled men. Much like the biblical Esau, they're quick to sell their birth right for a slice of a woman's financial contribution. These are men whose guage for measuring a potential wife material is first of all sensitive to the size of her purse -- not her character. While tech and innovation are crucial and much welcomed, they lack the capacity to address the deep decay and erosion in the family structure and it's values. Making a direct comparison between both points to a rather dark and materialistic mindset which in itself has cost the modern man his place. |

traihit: You spoke well but i must highlight the 2nd part of your 3rd paragraph about Abraham listening to Sarah "and did her wish and then that balanced it." If I get you correctly, you're trying to draw a parallel of obedience between Abraham and his wife, Sarah using the incident where Sarah asked Abraham to send the concubine and her son away. Firstly, Sarah knew she doesn't have the authority to send them away, just like she knew she couldnt send the concubine away when she was scornful of her after she realized she was pregnant. She complained bitterly to Abraham that her slave woman whom she gave to Abraham has become rude. Abraham then transferred the authority to her by saying "she's your servant, do to her what you wish". Only then did Sarah had the power to exert authority over Hagar. So she asked Abraham to send them away which Abraham refused until GOD intervened by asking Abraham to listen to Sarah. Sarah at that point was an instrument in conveying GOD's directive of which HE can use anybody, eveb a child in similar regard. It can never be attributed to Abraham and Sarah sharing authority in the affairs of their home. |

bukatyne: Of all the women you cited, one was given to women as an example. Her name is Sarah. She called her husband Abraham lord. And you have been called to emulate her in obedience towards your husband. Scripture is clear and unambiguous about the expectations of wives towards husbands. It's never a situation of master-servant relationship but one where a woman airs her view in a quiet and gentle manner but realises it is the husband's prerogative to listen or otherwise. |

sassysure: sassysure: This is the problem with so-called liberals; blackmailing, intolerant and hypocritical. Big shame how you labeled your "friend's" family as monsters just because they don't assist her in the kitchen being all men. And how you gave up in trying to change her -- interfering in her family setup. So what's the difference between you and that ancient serpent all the way back in the garden of Eden? 1 Like |
Family / Re: How To Enjoy A Blissful Marriage by McWordsworth: 6:53pm On May 25, 2020 |
Nice ppints @OP but like every contemporary writer, you failed to add arguably the most fundamental and most important point: woman, be submissive unto thy husband and husband be compassionate and loving unto thy wife. I tell you, that's an important key to lasting and successful marriage. But "civilization" makes even pastors of the day to skip that part. Women by nature needs love the most even though some may not realize it. While men cherish an obedient wife. Once a couple get that worked out, most things fall into place. 1 Like |

It is clear you constitute the base spectrum in the family section female gang. Throwing solidarity around is chiefly for the low IQ sycophants of the group. Even your punctuations are in need of emergency overhaul. Sorry, who outgunned who? Bwuahahaha! 3 Likes |

Hunye: Well, I'll tell you the truth. Your husband sought your permission before "going astray". It was a permission you granted. Whatever you have against him can't stand in that regard. In your case, he hasn't let you go, he's still exerting his authority (spiritual & physical) over you. So nothing good will come out of the abominable affair you're trying to build with that new adulterous snake. 2 Likes |

@ OP, you said your newfound co-adulterer is "Godly"? Wonders! What is godly about marrying a married woman? Obviously you have loose morals. |

pocohantas: And why is it that you don't like quoting the postman guy directly? You do this because you know you'd definitely need the MOD's help to expurgate his diatribes and quoting him will leave his post technically unexpurgated since it would be embedded in your own reply. You know you dare not go to bed knowing his vitriols against you are hanging out there like dirty undies for all to see. It's bad for business, isn't it? Little mind as fragile as a lab glassware! 2 Likes |
