Pastor Dave Hoffman-Fear of the Lord
In the military, one man or one woman is not better. It is
respect for the authority that governs…respect for the uniform.
Ladies, when you submit to your husband, you are submitting to
God’s authority on your husband. Ultimately, you are submitting
yourself to the Lord.
A woman in submission is submitting to God’s divine
authority. God’s submission is basically an attitude of one’s
heart. It is the overall way a woman responds to her husband.
Submission does not mean a wife loses her individuality and
becomes a doormat, submitting to abuse or sin. She can be
submissive to his authority and still say, “No, I won’t do that. It
is inconsistent with the Word of God.” Or, “Dear, could we seek
some counsel before I do what you ask because I’m afraid it is in
conflict with God’s Word.”
That is a godly attitude of the heart.
A wife can be submitted and still disagree, holding her own
opinions.
