God's Desiign For Marriage

God's Design For Marriage

#1 - Wives should be submissive to their husbands.

Ephesians 5:22 KJV 1900

Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.

#2- Husbands love your wives as christ loved the church.

A life of misery is usually the lot of those who are united in marriage, or in any other way of their own choosing, with the men of the world. Morning And Evening, Page 26

Charles Spurgeon

Ephesians 5:25–28 KJV 1900

Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, 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. So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself.

#3- Spouses need to fully commit to their marriage

Ephesians 5:31 KJV 1900

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.
