Happy Sunday NLers!

Contradictory topic innit?

Well, I have come to the conclusion that the greatest breeding ground for unsaved Christian husbands is the Church.

What do I mean?

We teach wives to be patient, submissive, obedient, forgiving, especially tolerant etc.

Now this is not bad in itself: after all, they are Christian virtues we should all emulate.

My problem is when you are talking to Christian wives who have Christian husbands and telling them to tolerate abuse, infidelity, keep praying for them etc. and you wonder if Christian husbands should be found with such vices in the first place.

It is akin to how we preach forgiveness for hisband's errors and forget the virtue of forgiveness when the wives errs.

It is also worrisome that there are much more functional women fellowships than men so there is continuous teaching of women to endure all sorts 'for peace to reign' while men are not taught same.

And we wonder why our Christian homes aren't any different from that of the 'unbelivers'.

Amazing how wet are quick to evoke the 'for better for worse clause' when men err and conveniently forget it when the woman is the 'sinner.'


I would like contributions and way forward.

First off, it narrows down to a church or churches that have contributed to shaping your thoughts and belief.

Scripture is replete with sound doctrines on how a saved husband should conduct himself in marriage and there are plenty of churches that hold fast to such teachings.

This is not to denounce your point, but a good analysis in relation to reality will prove that such teachings cut across both gender divide.

For instance, men are generally thought both within religious and secular circles not to be provoked by a woman's tongue. "Just ignore her", walk away when she starts ranting", "never lay your hands on her no matter the provocation ". These are few advise given to men with regards to the nature of a woman's tongue.

It is easy to raise gender-based misgivings without looking the other way round where the advantages lie.


Thanks for the mention, elder0001

Why are the police not telling the public the names of the fake drugs?
