HUSBAND BEING THE HEAD OF THE HOME (1)

(Message by Tanny Keng)

1. Husbands to know

a) There are so many Scripture passages that talk about not only husbands but both husbands and wives. There are many different elements and teachings about being a husband according to Scripture that men should be able to know and understand what God expects of us (men that are husbands). 

b) There are thoughts from both the old and new testaments that show men that we need to be the head of our households. 

c) We are clearly instructed to love our wives and given the example of that way that Jesus loves His bride (the church). 

1 Peter 3:7 
“Likewise, husbands, live with your wives in an understanding way, showing honor to the woman as the weaker vessel, since they are heirs with you of the grace of life, so that your prayers may not be hindered.”

2. Husband Being The Head Of The Home

Genesis 3:16 
To the woman he said, “I will surely multiply your pain in childbearing; in pain you shall bring forth children. Your desire shall be for your husband, and he shall rule over you.”

1 Corinthians 11:19  
For there must be factions among you in order that those who are genuine among you may be recognized.

Ephesians 5:23  
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.
