folly...

Scripture tells us that the wife is to voluntarily submit herself to the authority of husband as the head of the family. It must be stressed that it has to be voluntary, not forced or demanded by the husband.

In decision making, all decisions affecting the family should be made in consultation with each other, and hopefully, both the husband and the wife should be in agreement. However, if there is no agreement, then the wife should accede to the decision of the husband, and support him fully in his decision unless it goes against the clear teachings of Scripture - the revealed will of God.

The husband, in return, is to love his wife in the same way that Jesus loves us, and remember that He loves us so much that He voluntarily suffered and died a horrible death for us. The husband is also to honor his wife, and always treat her with high respect and be protective of her welfare and her physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well being. Both of them are required by God to always remain faithful to each other, and neither should either ever deprive the other of physical intimacy. They should take care that they never go to bed angry with each other and be quick to resolve any lingering differences. Divorce is not an option, for they made a vow to God when they were married.

Hope that helps.
