Elisa View Profile History	hellos Posted : 20 Feb, 2011 08:05 PM Ruminations..... The guy cooks dinner and asks me to handle the clean up....maybe. If we are talking dishes, no problem. If we are talking tweezing mashed potatoes out of the electrical outlets and from between the ceiling tiles, this sounds like a two person job, so let's get cracking. As for fixing the toilet, I can't I can however replace that sucker and have several times in various houses. Electricity issues, I have it covered. Roofing, try hard to stay away from it. Causes flashbacks to calling the fire department when my dress got hung up while I was roofing a barn. Had to call the fire department to get me down. NOT a stellar day. Fire department did enjoy themselves (at the expense of my pride). Huge sigh. Well, at least some good came from it I suppose. Working....if one of us does not work outside the house, that one gets to work INSIDE the house. Makes sense. Mowing lawns and gardening....sure, be happy to. Just make sure to stop up on kleenex cause I'm gonna be sicker than a dog next week. Post Reply

riveroflife1 View Profile History	hellos Posted : 21 Feb, 2011 05:53 PM Lol...chevy you are to much i'm more traditional so i think women should take care of the house even if she's working.(I draw the line at garbage and yard) but honestlly, it should be discussed prior to marriage. the two need to agree on who does what. blessings Post Reply
View Profile History	hellos Posted : 23 Feb, 2011 06:18 PM I think marriage is a partnership and the person who has the best knowledge, background, or expertise should cook, do the dishes or laundry. I have worked since I was 19 and would continue working whenever I marry (or at least I hope to continue working). I am vegan and will not cook you anything I cannot eat. So If were to marry a non-vegan, he would have to make his own meat dishes. Post Reply
View Profile History	hellos Posted : 5 Feb, 2012 06:57 PM I have worked with FamilyLife(.com) for many years as a volunteer on the Vermont team and I can say much of your criticism of the state of marriages is very true and has take a major toll on may levels, affecting not just the couple but children as well. Over 50% of all couples in the church today nation wide are on their second marriage. The fact that the divorce rate is now HIGHER in the Church than outside speaks to the fact that while they are attending they are not 'listening' but rather following the 'world' pattern that they see being played out before them on TV, Movies, magazines, as well as many other sources, and NOT listening to the clear teaching of Scripture. A haunting verse to me is in Luke 6:46 �Why do you call me, �Lord, Lord,� and do not do what I say?" How can we claim to be a CHRISTIAN and follower of Christ when we deliberately choose to 're-wright' the rules and try to tell God he is wrong and we know better in the face of our consistent failure. It will be in that day Jesus will say, "Then I will tell them plainly, �I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!� Matthew 7:23 A scarey place to be! pslowazo Post Reply
View Profile History	hellos Posted : 16 Apr, 2012 08:19 PM The scriptures are largely silent on that subject. While Proverbs 51 does describe the way one woman cares for her family this is not the universal pattern found of all Godly women in Scripture. Culture has a LARGE roll in outlining specific duties of men and women in marriage but only withing the boundaries of the nature of the relationship that is to Scripturaly exist between a man and a woman. The relationship between Christ and His Church is an example of that which is to exist between a husband and wife. A great book on this subject is 'LOVE AND RESPECT'. As people distort the relationship between Christ and the Church they also distort the relationship between a husband and a wife. If one thinks they see God as demanding and dictatorial then most likely they will want to run their home that same way. If they see God as all Love with no consequences to misconduct they will likely not be a Godly LEADER. Division of jobs and responsibilities should be worked out between a couple subject to many factors such as TIME and ABILITY to mention two, but in the end the husband is his wife's spiritual and physical umbrella of protection and when he stands before God He will be held accountable FIRST, ahead of his wife, for HIS actions or inactions. Bottom line; if the garbage doesn't get taken out, no matter whose Job it is, He will stand responsible. Post Reply
vsvitto29 View Profile History	hellos Posted : 19 May, 2012 03:16 PM Well every one has there own hang ups about being submissive.in the bible the lord tells the woman to submit because women are more more incline to listen to there own emotions, ideas or another female not what the word says about being submissive or her male partner also remember the word say not to add anything to it or take anything from it,it is what it says it is,the whole idea of the word submit means to humble yourself to kill the disagreement not add fire to it,if the other person is wrong trust me it will manifest itself.Question how can you submit to god but not your partner would you fight god or would you say ok father I will do what you ask of me or either suffer the punishment of disobediance? How many times have you been in a aguement and kept adding fuel to the fire and you or your partner left or you all broke up,or how many times have you been in an aguement listened and said ok and you quenched the uprising. can you see the difference when you submit you you kill the spirit of disagreement.Christians for one have this spirit of disagreement bad if you can't submit to GOD you cannot expect someone to submit to you.
