LOVING IN CHRIST
EPHESIANS 5:25
"Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave Himself for it."
As we examine the duty of husbands in our marital discovery series, this is to love their wives, and in the absence of keeping this divine instruction, such men would abuse their superiority, leadership and headship. God of all grace expects this special and peculiar affection only to their wives because men do not find it easy to show love, likewise women find it hard to submit.
The love of Christ Jesus to the church is compared and proposed as an example of this pattern, which is a sincere, a pure, an ardent, and constant affection, and notwithstanding the imperfections and failures that she is guilty of. The greatness of His love to the church appeared in His decision to give Himself unto the death for it.
Beloved, as the church’s subjection to Christ is proposed as an exemple to wives, so the love of Christ to His church is also proposed as a pattern to husbands; and while such exemples are offered to both, and so much is required of each, neither has any excuses to complain of this basic divine injunctions. Are you finding it difficult to love your wife? of you're finding it hard to submit to your husband? Let's discover wayforward further.
To be continued.
Enjoy your day!!!
Personal Confession: I receive grace to be a loving spouse in life, and obey the basic injunction of Christ Jesus in Jesus name.
