Three Principals For Honoring Your Husband

[Serap]

The reason why is because there have been, and still are, men who use ‘submission’ to mean ‘oppression’, and so use this passage to abuse their wives. Because of this its a sensitive subject and people react far more than they need to. It becomes all to easy to associate ‘submssion’ with oppression, and when one believes the word ‘submission’ to equal oppresion then of course you’re going to get a lot of negative responses. Which is why I think its important to help people understand that submission can be a beautiful thing, and that not everyone who talks about submission as a good thing is promoting the oppression of women.

When have men ever been abused and oppressed under the guise of needing to act like Christ? It just doesn’t have the same history and negative connotations.

feminism was the result of female oppression.

Yes! and there is a good form of feminism and a bad form. The good form seeks for both men and women to be recognized to hold the same dignity and seeks the end of the oppression of women through allowing them to *really *be women. not slaves, not children not men.
The bad form seeks to give women ‘equal dignity’ through turning them into men. There is a difference and feminism has a real place in society.

 

[Serap]

Hardly gives license to excuse the wife’s responsibility, it was not a suggestion. It IS a commandment. God does not hear the prayers of a man that leaves a hurt on his woman’s heart. She IS His little girl, after all!

she’s agreeing with you. you are beginning to argue against yourself LOL

1000% agreed

It is a result of Satan! The communist Manifesto is a perversion of Christ’s teachings. It is only beautiful on the surface.

And nobody, especially me is advocating oppressing anything! Free will is KEY! Submission is a matter of function; Not position.

I assume you are talking about a kind of false feminism that tries to turn women into men because it assumes that the only way women can have equal dignity to men is if they become men.

Your passion could be channeled into many wonderful things. Do you do works of charity for helping children and families? You have the passion for it. You could make a difference.

yeah, I too hate it when woman try to be men. it’s really unattractive.

my favourite work bosses are women who are nurturing and sensitive in their leadership style.

I am making a difference now: We never see our fruit; Sometimes, all we can do is plant the seeds. Are you going to order Tony Evans book on this?

Some women may not be “nurturing and sensitive.” Would you have them act against themselves in order to meet your expectation of feminine behavior?

The conventional wisdom that has anything besides two parents raising their kids and makes a woman feel less because she “has no career.” when raising children is the most important job in the world.

The peer pressure that assumes men and women having different functions means that one is less than!

I could go on and on; But, you are touching on it. I can find NO saving grace on the feminist movement, it is a communist invention!

never. I’m an advocate of people being themselves. You’re right though, not every woman is nuturing.

good point

Yes, there is a group that has hijacked the term feminism and use it to try and force all sorts of detrimental things. but as I said, the real meaning of the word and what it actually stands for are good things. The recognition of the equal dignity of men and women. Just because some people try to accomplish this the wrong way doesn’t mean that feminism itself is bad

Being called to be a wife and mother is one thing. Being called to be a CEO of a fortune 500 company is quite another calling. I LOVE Margret Thatcher, Mother Theresa, Mother Angelica, I LOVE women. It burns my tail to see the lies of the lefy so readily accepted!

For those of you that missed it:

Men, who are called to serve as husbands and fathers, I pray that you find these words and may the seeds be planted in the hearts of all men that will hear you. It was the destruction of the family that has destroyed this nation in the US and your virtue (Latin word meaning “to be a man.”) will break any sword.
You have the duty to serve, firstly your wife; yet, you do not know your role!
You are her Savior!
You are her Sanctifier!
You are her Satisfier!
Husbands love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church. Christ showed His love in SACRIFICE, SUFFERING and SUBSTITUTION.
Sacrificing for Your Wife by his command and example, He gave Himself up for The Holy Mother Church, The Bride of Christ! Your love should be cruciform-in the shape of a cross. It is NOT about wearing a crown and being King of our castle. He wore a crown of THORNS first and then the cross came before His glory! Is the sacrificial way you love your wife obvious in ANY way? Men love to rap, rap, rap about their love and sound SO impressive about how we are going to protect them and even die if need be. Who do you personally know anyone who has actually taken a bullet? Can you nail your desires and agenda to the cross and love our wives and meet her needs? The sacrifice has to go beyond words…she HAS to see you walk that walk!
To sanctify something is to set it apart from ordinary use for a special purpose. God takes ordinary objects and peoples and sanctifies them for His Glory. They are set apart from their past and unto the future He would wish for them. You made promises to your wife (or will) about her future, are you just parroting words? Again, the Bride of Christ, His Body, and The Church is disconnected from a past of sin and through His grace we are made obedient to His given law and will. The process of this transformation was manifested through His death and until you die to yourself and leave your worldly desires in the world you should be disconnected from, you are not the example that Christ gave; you are just talking a good talk! If a man does not work, he should not eat…seeing how Hollywood, the TV and the ‘street’ are the antithesis of the truth?
Satisfying the needs of your wife as Christ does for His Church is probably a little harder than any of us thought it would be. “C’mon, I had NO IDEA that she was THAT needy!” Well, you talked such a good game while you were trying to win her over…but, you did not realize that you were going to have to become a servant to learn how to become the leader. Christ washed the feet of His Apostles giving us the example to do as He has done. Do not wait around for your wives to serve you, set the example in your home by being the one who serves!

unfortunately it was men who saw the woman’s role as being less important and treated their wives that way. women were being oppressed and they rebelled against it. yes, they took it too far, but it was a necessary movement to free women from oppression.

why are traditional women’s job paid so much lower than tradational male jobs?

Trace the history, dates, people, it is born out of evil, just like the liberation theologies and as I do support civil rights, the civil rights movement was also born of communism. It appears to unite, but, only functions to divide!

I was called to be a wife and mother…and an information technology analyst

modern society makes it very difficult to be a SAHM. men’s salaries are much lower than they used to be and in Canada, 40% of a our income is tax.

banks want their mortgage payments on time.

A man who fears God and knows that he will have to come before God to give an account for his life, this man is one who is thoughtful, prayerful, loving, one who seeks wisdom. **Mary and Jesus were under the care of St Joseph, who must have been humbled by the charges in his care. I would not have a problem with St Joseph as my husband. **There have been very few times where I might say to my husband, *How would you feel if you came before God for that decision? * It would make him shiver. To fear the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.

If a woman says “He’s going to do what he wants anyway”, does not know such a man. There are men like that in neighborhoods, workplaces, and churches, but it’s not like they walk around with a heavenly glow for all to know. I am very grateful to the Catholic families who are putting in an effort to raise young men like this. What an uphill battle!

So what?
How many women will have the opportunity to marry saints?
