[QUOTE="BrownFlush, post: 4763053, member: 65823"] Forgot about this. All the books written could not contain why. "Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife even as Christ is the head of the church, his body, and is himself its Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit in everything to their husbands. Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, [URL='http://biblehub.com/ephesians/5-26.htm'][B]26[/B][/URL]that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word," Eph. 5: 22-25 Two different kinds of love here. The Lord's love is a sacrificial love. Husbands are to love their wives with the same kind of love. ( would die for them) The wife's response is to submit (love) as does the church submits because of that kind of love. The Lord's sacrificial love will garner in you a love that is one of submission ( a different kind of love) He loved you enough to die for you, our response is we should love him and we show that to him by submitting to him.
