Living Against the Grain

in #religion6 years ago

Colossians 3:18-21

18 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands,
as it is fit in the Lord.
19 Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter
against them.
20 Children, obey your parents in all things: for
this is well pleasing unto the Lord.
21 Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest
they be discouraged.

Family is Under Attack! in this day and age. The devil has worked hard to redefine family not in line with the Bible. Obviously, in our modern era, this wise verse from Paul to the Colossians is controversial. Can we live against the grain and follow this clear instruction? This could also say wives RESPECT your husbands and husbands LOVE your wives. Because women need love, but men need respect most of all. It should be a blessing to a wife, not a curse, to submit to the husband. Just as Christ is the head of man and came to serve...

Mark 10:45

44 And whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall
be servant of all.
45 For even the Son of man came not to be ministered
unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom
for many.

1 Corinthians 11:3

3 But I would have you know, that the head of every
man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man;
and the head of Christ is God.

This is not an order of demeaning superiority but an order of care and service. Husbands do not let bitterness fester in your marriage. Do not hold grudges against your wife. God Bless You and be good to each other as Christ is good to you.

This is great, must homes don't follow the world of God in regard to how they relate with each other. The wife doesn't submit to the husband nor does the husband love their wifes. Must times its a marriage of convenience not love

Because women need love, but men need respect most of all. It should be a blessing to a wife, not a curse, to submit to the husband. Just as Christ is the head of man and came to serve.....

Indeed families are under attack ..The devil knows too well that the only way he can destroy the society is toa destroy the very nuclear of every society: the family. The order of family must be maintain. GOD HELP US.. AMENI.

Nice post because GOD IS LOVE

The words are very wonderful
The wife must obey her husband until he receives the grace of the Lord
The husband should improve his wife
The children must hear the words of Papa and Mama

And Papa and Mama should be encouragers.

18 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands,
as it is fit in the Lord.
19 Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter
against them.
20 Children, obey your parents in all things: for
this is well pleasing unto the Lord.
21 Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest
they be discouraged.

I Think its great true word.....every parents/husband/wife/child follow and accept it.

God's greatness always overshadows our lives.

Love always loving for God

ove will bring man to peace. and that's the way to God's eternal love ...

a good human being is a human being capable of loving others like loving himself ...

if he has done that, then God will love him ...

Great post @deathlyhorror

I believe that today you have exhibited a special message for the marriages.
Well, although we do not believe it, marriages are attacked aggressively by Satan to destroy families.

While being subject to the will of God may allow them not to be destroyed, that is, letting marriage be directed by God being Christ the head of man and woman submitting to her husband out of love.

This is possible when we let Christ govern our lives and we hold fast to his command.
The love between man and woman can help to live a healthy marriage and blessed by God.

Pleasant message @dethlyhorror

Worthy words from God necessary for peaceful home

Beautiful write up. I which every home could adhere to this then there will be endless peace in the home. God bless you for sharing this

Wife is the best gift of God for a husband. So a husband never grudges against his wife. God loves us as we should always follow his rules to be a true believer. Thanks a lot dear friend @deathlyhorror for the beautiful religious content.💜

Dear Friend. In fact, the family is subjected to the attack of the media and the new vices that have arisen in this century and the distortions of sexuality and hedonism. Excellent phrases Christ is above all. He is love. A fraternal hug @deathlyhorror

beautiful post

Respect and love.
Wow great one..these are two key ingrediant for a healthy home.

The enemy's center of attack is the family, because he knows that destroying it destroys society ... and destroying society has more ground to destroy souls. There are many marriages where the husband is very bitter not only with the wife but with the children and that also influences the enemy's attacks.

muy buena publicacion. Dios no establecio esos parametros para denigrar a la mujer ni mucho menos sino para establecer un orden porque El es un Dios de orden. De igual forma el hombre no debe sentirse mas que la mujer solo debe amarla respetarla corresponderle y cuidarla como el sacerdote que Dios le dice que es. Es bueno refrescar este tipo de cosas. Bendiciones y saludos desde Venezuela

There is an order to everything in this world. Satan has tried to create chaos. The Bible gives us an example of order in the household. The lies and deception of the enemy has distorted the view of household order to lead people into believing that being submissive is a terrible, horrible thing. We all have to submit to someone on earth whether it is a boss, a landlord, a bank, a teacher, and so on. If we do not submit to these people we create chaos, just as if we do not submit to the leading authority in our household just as scripture details.

Amen. Very true man. Because of egalitarianism, women are failing to give the necessary respect due to be given to husbands. Also, men refuse to love their wives in a godly way. Their loves are shared tfor several women. We must go back to the biblical way of family practice and live by it. God bless you @deathlyhorror for this message.
