Ephesians 5:22-27

We reflect what we behold/ spend time with
2 Corinthians 3:16-18 ESV
[16] But when one turns to the Lord, the veil is removed. [17] Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. [18] And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.



If we look at the context of these verses the Weight primarily is laid upon the husband as the Weight primarily is laid upon YESHUA

As the Body should submit to YESHUA because HE has proven HIMSELF to be worthy of submission so should the husband
YESHUA does not make it difficult as a husband submits to YESHUA a wife won’t find it difficult

What KINGDOM wife would not want to willingly submit Ephesians 5:26-27 ESV
[26] that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, [27] so that he might present the church to himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish

Such operation for a husband takes a cross life


Something to ponder from CS Lewis…”Every Christian would agree that a man’s (woman’s) spiritual health is exactly proportional to his love for GOD.”

Amen?

Had a brother tell me Mike there are no loop holes to loving GOD

The evidence is your obedience
Your maturity is an expression of your love and dependence on YESHUA
We say we live out the two greatest commandments then YESHUA drew the line, “Love Other’s As I Have Loved You!!!!”


Do you love HIM?


Here’s a Watchman Nee quote that beautifully complements C.S. Lewis’s statement about love for God and spiritual health:“Actually, only God can satisfy a Christian’s heart; man cannot. The failure of many is to seek from man what can be found only in God. All human affection is empty; the love of God alone is able to fully satisfy one’s desire. The moment a Christian seeks a love outside God his spiritual life immediately falls.” — Watchman Nee, The Spiritual Man
