[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 278825, member: 2189"] For whatever reason I can't fathom, God looked down on my lowly existence and blessed me with the greatest woman on earth as we've been together 32 years. Now I'm no beacon of the perfect husband at all and have made many the mistake but years ago I heard a preacher talk about the commandment of "wives be submissive to the husband" but that was only to open the salvo as he went further to explain that any wife who violated this commandment was forced to do so by her husband and it was he that was the root cause. Now that caught a lot of stern male eyes but after the sermon I absolutely agreed with him. He then spent the rest of the sermon going indepth on the very point D made above. If a man places his wife and her wellbeing first and foremost, places loyality to her above all else, gives up everything for her and places the family that comes from that union first and foremost, then obedience if you will, comes naturally in return and is not seen as being obedient or submissive is a slavish, dominant kind of way but rather as a true partnership based on love and complete devotion to one another. It's a lesson I learned early on and although like everyone, you make mistakes but even so it's seen as just making a wrong choice rather than a motive of evil intent. In other words, your heart isn't judged because your mind choose box A instead of box B or C. Sorry to get off point but your comment just made me think of one of the most important lessons IMO to be found in the Bible when it comes to a relationship between 2 people. You may now continue to rip one another apart over Mike Savage! :happy-very::happy-very::happy-very: [/QUOTE]
