Submission in Marriage: Is it Still Relevant?

Submission in marriage is a biblical principle where wives are encouraged to respectfully submit to their husbands' leadership, just as the church submits to Christ (Ephesians 5:22-33). However, it's important to understand that: - Submission is a mutual relationship, not a one-way demand. - Husbands are called to love and sacrifice for their wives, just as Christ did for the church. - Submission is not about: - Blind obedience - Loss of personal identity or autonomy - Enablement of abuse or sin - Rather, it's about: - Respect and trust - Partnership and teamwork - Christ-centered humility and love.
