The Beauty of Biblical Submission

Scripture :   Ephesians 5:22-23  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. Submission is often misunderstood in today’s world, but within the context of a loving, Christ-centered marriage, it is a beautiful expression of trust and mutual respect. As Christian women, we are called to submit to our husbands as an act of obedience to God, reflecting the relationship between Christ and the Church. Reflection : Submission does not mean that you are less important in God's eyes than a man, nor does it mean blind obedience. It is about willingly placing ourselves under our husband’s leadership, trusting that he will lead with love and integrity. The Bible also actually teaches that men are to lead and have authority in the churches and in society in general. In the marriage relationship this is especially important for us as believer...

Learning to Be Meek and Quiet

Proverbs 29:11 11A fool uttereth all his mind: but a wise man keepeth it in till afterwards. Proverbs 25:28 28He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls. Proverbs 9:13 13 A foolish woman is clamorous: she is simple, and knoweth nothing. 1 Peter 3:1-4 1 Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives; 2 While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear. 3 Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel; 4 But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price. Learning to Be Quiet  In a world that often va...

How to Stop Gossiping

How to Stop Gossiping  James 3:7-8 in the KJB says, 7For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind: 8But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. It's not even possible for an unbeliever to tame their tongue. Keep this in mind the next time that you are shocked by the things that unbelievers say! In olden days, man made more of an attempt to try to tame their tongue which is why etiquette and manners were introduced into civilized societies. Wars and all kinds of calamities have been a result of unruly tongues! The reason why the tongue can be so offensive is because the tongue speaks what is in our hearts, and an unbelievers heart is desperately wicked. Therefore, no unbeliever can truly tame his tongue not to speak evil things. Jeremiah 17:9 in the KJB says, "The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?" Howeve...

Biblical Submission

Submission is a common word in the King James Bible. The Websters 1828 dictionary defines submission as: • The act of submitting; the act of yielding to power or authority; surrender of the person and power to the control or government of another. • Acknowledgment of inferiority or dependence; humble or suppliant behavior. • Obedience; compliance with the commands or laws of a superior. submission of children to their parents is an indispensable duty. • Resignation; a yielding of one's will to the will or appointment of a superior without murmuring. Entire and cheerful submission to the will of God is a christian duty of prime excellence. Believers are to submit themselves to God's will. They are also to submit themselves to serving one another in love and charity. Children are to submit to their parents; younger people are to submit to [respect] their elders; we are to submit ourselves to obeying the laws of our land (human government); etc. Women are to submit to t...

Marriage is Important to God

  Marriage is important to God. In fact, God instituted marriage. Let's look at some verses.  Genesis 2:18 in the KJB says, " And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him ." Genesis 2:23-24 " And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh ." Adam understood that he was alone and God said that it was not good for the man to be alone. So, He wanted to created a help meet for Adam. What is a help meet? A help meet is a partner and companion. God would then bring Adam and Eve together in the very first marriage (Gen 2:22). They would then become husband and wife as Genesis 2:23-24 says.  Adam was given dominion over the earth. Adam and Eve were NOT "co-regents". Rather, man was to rule and the woman was ...
