Ephesians 5:25-33 niv



Talks about how a "Christian" man should be to his wife as Head. What does Head of wife really mean, some should read this Scripture it might Prevent all these Divorces that "Christian" men's wives get from them.

ExceedingJoy,



You are a woman. Take responsibility for yourself and for the woman's role in a marriage. Learn that. No need to go around blasting men for what you think they should and should not be doing. Let the men worry about the men. If you don't think a man is a "Christian" (as you put it), stay away from him in the first place. Problem solved. If you can't tell the difference, pray for some discernment. If you still can't figure it out, stay out of the dating pool.



There is way too much generalization going on in these threads. Men should... women should..... the church should.... etc.



Not everyone is at fault. There are still many who are not divorced. If you are divorced, you are NOT an expert on making a marriage work, contrary to your opinion. We don't need to hear about what you think you learned. Not until you have proven yourself in the context of a new healthy marriage. Those who have been and stay married for years are the experts.

""Christian" Men should treat a wife like Christ treated the Church and their would be no divorce in the Church. God is head, Man is head of his Wife. Esphesians 5 chapter talks about how a Man should treat his wife, if that man is a "Christian". Men are not Heads, many think they are.:laugh: "



Men are not heads - many think they are and a laugh to follow.



Yes, I think that is bashing and I think your focus is on correcting men.



"Christian" Men - Yes, I think that is sarcasm intended at men.



If that is not how you intend it, feel free to clarify that here in the thread publicly.

My focus is on Gods Word, as to what Men should be to their wives as the "Head". Nothing more, not bashing !

My Opinions are given on these Forums including Yours!

We do have to Agree, But God Words Stand...!

This Post was not to start and Agruement but for Men to

look at the Word, The Bible Scriptures if they have a problem with the Scripture then that is Between them and God.

ExceedingJoy and GodsJude,

You are right on target.

We all can and should learn from any mistakes we make. Someone who has gone through a bad marriage can learn what did not work, do more studying, receive counseling etc to learn how to have a healthy marriage by ensuring the future spouse is who God wants them to marry.

Someone who has never been married may have gone through classes/counseling to gain insight into,what it will take to make a marriage work...that's the best option.

Just because a couple has been married for 50 years, it does not make them an expert on a healthy marriage.

A healthy marriage takes two dedicated to treating each other with love and respect...from the beginning (before the marriage starts) and throughout.

If more preachers and teachers would go through all the directions to husbands and wives as well as how to have positive relationships (being at peace...as much as is possible), more marriages would be saved.

Too often the focus is one sided...which keeps the marriage off balanced.
