Jul. 3, 2008 - another post on subbmission
I am so glad I got a wonderful comment on this subject.
I saw yet another wife have a weird comment on subbmission somewhere. she said you should sumbmit to your husband as you would the Lord. WHAT! Ok one you should submit to the Lord above everything and anyone. People People what bible are you reading? Nowhere does God say to do that. Her infact says he is a jealous God and you should not have any Gods above him. Secondly who in the Bible does that? Seriously name one time someone sinned and it was OK because there husband told them to?
I can think of several times a husband sinned because he didn't listen to his wife. Like Pontius Pilate who's wife Said not to crucify him because of a dream. People seriously need to quit reading books on submission and forgetting to read the bible. And do a real bible study on the Women of the bible. They where not quiet little women, the bible is filled with Strong Women. And Women can Prophesy's I am sick of hearing that too. Over and Over again in the Bible God goes to both Men and Women. He talks to us both! Not sex over the other. This does not mean a Women is a Man, WE are very diffrent and need to remember that. But being diffrent doesn't mean we are less. Look at Mary, and Mary Magdelon, Look at Mary and Martha, Look at Anna.
We have a few stories where women mess up and we are supposed to take that we are to be quiet and blindly follow our husbands because they are smarter, and I am thinking as I hear this, what about all teh stories in which Men mess up? Does this make sense? Quit picking up these books of garbage and also quit listening to Women who need to pick up a Bible. Read your Bible! Nothing beats what is in a Bible. Listen to these Bible Studies you are doing with the Children and think.
I will never sin because my husband told me too. And most of the books I have read say DO NOT SIN! So it isn't the books, I have no idea where people come up with some comments I hear. Your husband is not God and trust me he probley doesn't want that resposibility. And he is not perfect. He is human. And he wants you to talk with him, listen to him and to stick up for yourself. Every since I have started saying no, or asking for help and also ignoring his comments. My marriage has transformed! It has turned from a bitter housewife and a husband who has not idea what to do to fix things. To a home where we both have a say, I have help, and we are on the same level. My kids are even changing for the better.

Not arguing, but this is the verse.
