Husbands Love Your Wife



Husbands Love Your Wife
 
Husbands Love Your Wife and Be Not Bitter Against Your Wife
 
In Ephesians 5, Paul explains that Christ is to His church as a man is to his wife.
 
Ephesians 5:20 Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;
 
21 Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.
 
22 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.
 
23 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.
  • The husband is the head of the wife, Why?
  • Husbands are to work and take care of their wife and keep her safe.
  • 1 Timothy 5:8 But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.
  • Infidel = # G4103 = disbelieving, without Christian faith, untrustworthy or that believeth not, faithless, infidel, unbeliever
  • Provide = Romans 12:17 Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.
  • Ephesians 6:4 And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.
  • Don't disciples unwisely
  • Teach your family the difference between right and wrong
  • The man is to teach his family to live, in the ways of Christ, not as the world.
  • Bring his family up, as the Lord teaching him.
24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.
  • Love your husband
25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
  • God said, love your wife, As Christ also loved the church
  • If you love the Lord, You will Love your wife
  • Keep her safe. Means to do what's right, work and take care of her and keep her safe
  • Teach the word of God, teach your family what's right and wrong
  • Did it say, man to beat his wife or wife beat your husband
  • It said = Love your wife even as himself; and wife love your husband as you want him to love you, as Christ loves His own body, the church.
26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,
 
27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
  • The church of course is composed of His people, those who accept Jesus Christ.
28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself.
  • Love each other as one
29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:
  • Love each other as one
30 For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.
 
31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.
  • Shall be one flesh - men and their wives being one flesh, Love your wife even as himself; and wife love your husband as you want him to love you, as Christ loves His own body, the church.
  • Love your husband - Love your wife as one - meaning the same
  • Love your wife even as himself; and wife love your husband as you want him to love you
  • 1 Timothy 5:8 But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.
  •  The apostle does not once hint that Christ is the husband, or that the church is the wife, but uses the "great mystery" of Eph 5:32 in regard to the reciprocal obligations of husband and wife.
32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.
  • Shall be one flesh - men and their wives being one flesh, Love your wife even as himself; and wife love your husband as you want him to love you, as Christ loves His own body, the church.
  • Colossians 2:2 That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ;
    3 In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
  • Teach the word of God, teach your family what's right and wrong
33 Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.
 
Ephesians 5:27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
 
28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself.
 
29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:
 
30 For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.

31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.

32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.

33 Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.
 
Matthew 19:4 And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female,

5 And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?

6 Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.

7 They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away?

8 He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so.

9 And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.
  • If two can not get alone, ask forgiven from God, and get a bill of divorce
  • Fornication Greek Word NT:4202 = from NT:4203; harlotry (including adultery and incest); figuratively, idolatry =  to act the harlot, (literally) indulge unlawful lust (of either sex), or (figuratively) practise idolatry
  • Idolatry = image-worship (literally or figuratively) from NT:1491; an image ( for worship); by implication, a heathen god, or (plural) the worship of such: idol.

  • Did Jesus said, beat your wife keep her in fear?
  • Jesus said: Ephesians 5: 25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
  • What's fornication and Idolatry?
  • Colossians 3:5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:
  • Gal 5:18 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.
    19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
    20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
    21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
    22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
    23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
    24 And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.
    25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
  • Divorce is not the unforgiving sin
  • The Lord divorce Israel
  • Jeremiah 3:8 And I saw, when for all the causes whereby backsliding Israel committed adultery I had put her away, and given her a bill of divorce; yet her treacherous sister Judah feared not, but went and played the harlot also.
  • After forgiven you can married again and take part in the church
  • 1 Peter 3:18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:
  • Matthew 18:21 Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?
    22 Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.
  • Acts 3:19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;
  • Colossians 2:14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;
  • Colossians 2:16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holy day, or of the new moon, or of the Sabbath days:
10 His disciples say unto him, If the case of the man be so with his wife, it is not good to marry.

11 But he said unto them, All men cannot receive this saying, save they to whom it is given.
 
1 Peter 3:7 Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.

8 Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous:
Colossians 3:17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.

18 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord.
