Join Pastor Stuart for a message on Ephesians (part of the Ephesians sermon series). The sermon starts at 37:00.
THE NATURE OF MARRIAGE
Wives, submit to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord. Husbands, love your wives, and do not be harsh with them.(ESV)
Colossians 3:18-19
SUBMISSION, PART 3
24 Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit in everything to their husbands.(ESV)
Ephesians 5:24
SUBMISSION, PART 2
34 the women should keep silent in the churches. For they are not permitted to speak, but should be in submission, as the Law also says.(ESV)
1 Corinthians 14:34
SUBMISSION, PART 1
5 For this is how the holy women who hoped in God used to adorn themselves, by submitting to their own husbands, 6 as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord. And you are her children, if you do good and do not fear anything that is frightening.(ESV)
1 Peter 3:5-6
NEW PARTNERSHIPS
You need to be kind to each other, tenderhearted, forgiving, just as God through Christ has forgiven you, and be tenderhearted, repentant, forgave. The same is true for husbands when it comes to their wives, as 1 Peter 3:7 explains. Make sure that you keep an open line of communication with your wife so that you can maintain a harmonious relationship.
