"Wives, in the same way submit yourselves to your own husbands so that, if any of them do not believe the word, they may be won over without words

by the behavior of their wives, 2 when they see the purity and reverence of your lives. 3 Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes. 4 Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight."
Submit to someone? People submit to me. Thanks for the laugh.

Lmao it's an esoteric book not this literal backward nonsense, ppl believe all this and then call other people regressive 🤣

@SW-User Do you know that many men write me here and ask me to pray for them
because of their sex addictions or their problems in their lives.
I am posting Gods word for men too! God tells men to LOVE their wives and lay down their lives for their wives since Jesus layed down his life for us. You think there is no heaven, ok but we don't live for this world we live for the next.

And God has answered ALL my prayers because I am obedient to his [i]word[/i].

@hippyjoe1955 correct you are. We are actually devolving from our Adamic state we were created in. Started the moment we got evicted from Eden.
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@Blackie I do believe we are devolving genetically but in all reality we haven't changed that much in the last 4000 years.

Sadly, people don't understand what "submission" truly means. They think of it in terms of master/slave. So when they come across passages that say wives submit..., they immediately stop reading and laugh.

The world (especially the Western World) worships the body. God says that real beauty should come from within. That way all will be satisfied. Things put on the body (make-up, jewelry, clothing) can never make the inward person "beautiful".

It’s sad how people have added a negative connotation to the idea of dominance and submission. Leadership and dominance don’t mean abuse. If you abuse the person(s) you’re leading/dominating, you’re a bad leader. If you’re submitting out of pure fear and not out of love and respect, you’re a bad follower. Yes, this passage can be twisted to justify abuse, but this is due to human error and sin, not due to the passage itself. People have used the Bible to justify genocide, but that doesn’t make the Bible wrong; it makes people wrong.

Dominance and submission can and should be beautiful when done right. We submit to God. We submit to our government. We submit to our bosses. No one blinks an eye at these things. But when we dare suggest that women should submit to their husbands, people freak out. Humans need a leadership structure to function as a society.

@Ferise1 Equality of value and equality of roles/function are not the same thing. You can have one without the other.

@Ferise1 You don’t allow children to drive, drink, or own a home, do you? Does that mean that children are less valuable than adults?

If this was under BDSM category, I'm sure you'd have received more positive feedback
i thought this was a joke at first. this never works. in fact, most husbands never come to this place and abuse tf out of their wives while she stays with him being the good savior wife. i have seen this with my own eyes. so go preach this to your church girls. (:
as far as i can see your post is [i]public[/i]. i am responding from [i]my[/i] point of view as an [i]ungodly[/i] woman, who you POSTED this Bible excerpt for in the first place. lmao. so i responded, you are most [i]welcome[/i]

@Carazaa
why do you all repeat the same words to each other over and over? @Carazaa
Carazaa · F
@deathfairy Because we won't be blessed unless we actually do what He says!

And why did God fail to create all husbands as blind ?

None of what you say would have mattered...

Instead of fucking advising females how to be a woman and wife.. isn't it simpler to advise males to close both eyes?

And most of what you say are demands of the husband which a wife fulfills

[quote]Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight."[/quote]
Can only come out of a loser ..

@Carazaa and he has been coming forever.. even your great great grand children will hear the same and he is yet to come in over 2000 years ...

Just wondering how it would have been around 100 AD .. where he hadn't returned in 100 years !
in10RjFox · M
@SpiritualMan true. It was the lapse on the part of religion and societies that failed to bring up a documenting legal system and consensus, which governments used the opportunity to bring up marriage registery and govern people. It's actually a trespass into human affairs..
Ceinwyn · 26-30, F
Yes, accept your chains.
Ryannnnnn · 31-35, M
So if you're a woman submit yourself to your husband and be quiet, cool 🤣

I understand this scripture but it’s so outdated I don’t think a man can be won over in any regard by submissiveness alone. They’re so selfish these days.
Carazaa · F
@Aidan God's word is not outdated. Fighting doesn't work.
Aidan · 26-30
@Carazaa Fighting? In what way?
Carazaa · F
@Aidan In a relationship!

Sounds very religious.

@Isthisit It's just smart to followGods advice.
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@Isthisit Too bad you went to church rather than become a Christian. Going to Church makes you a Christian like going to a butcher shop makes you a roast beef.

[i]Most [/i]people are not smart, are not happy, nor have their prayers answered!

@Ferise1 My wife was convicted in her spirit that submitting was good for her soul. She has since become more submissive as the years progressed because she liked what she got out of being the one submitting. She didn't want to be the leader. She doesn't want to be the head of the house. She wants to follow my lead and do the things I suggest.

@SpiritualMan You most certainly did. You start laying in conditions the minute you read the passage. Hmmm. Well submit doesn't really mean submit if you don't like the way your husband treats you.... Come on son wake up to the truth of the Gospel. It is a hard row to hoe. It is not easy to be what you are called to be. You don't get to pick and choose like the Bible is some sort of Buffet where you take the bits you like and leave the rest behind.

@Ferise1 No that is a bit of evidence of Super Natural. The natural can not explain either of those accounts I just gave you. Here is another. My Uncle Charlie lived in Wales. His brother John lived in Canada. One day John was admitted to hospital with terminal cancer. A few hours later John's wife Iris got a phone call from Charlie wondering what was wrong with John. Iris told him about the cancer then asked how he knew anything was wrong. Charlie explained that he was asleep and woke with a start because John was standing at the foot of his bed looking sad. Now Alberta Canada is about 7 time zones west of Wales and it would be impossible for John to have physically travelled to Wales in the short period of time between his diagnosis and the phone call. Is there a natural explanation for something like that? Not that I am aware of.

@Ferise1 What has that got to do with what we are discussing? I am simply giving examples of Super Natural.
