HUSBAND BEING THE HEAD OF THE HOME (2)

(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

Colossians 3:18  
Wives, submit to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.

Titus 2:5  
To be self-controlled, pure, working at home, kind, and submissive to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be reviled.

1 Peter 3:1  
Likewise, wives, be subject to your own husbands, so that even if some do not obey the word, they may be won without a word by the conduct of their wives.

1 Peter 3:6 
As Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord. And you are her children, if you do good and do not fear anything that is frightening.

The End ...
