I am objecting to all the roles and responsiblity stated below!!!! Ephesians 5:25 reads, "Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her." So I have to die for her? What!?A husband is bound to die for his wife, but is the wife bound to die for his husband? The church never died for Jesus. "According to the New Testament, being head of your wife does not mean being her master, but her servant. Again, Christ is our model for this type of leadership. Jesus did not just talk about serving; He demonstrated it when he washed His disciples' feet (John 13:1-17). " What!!!!? I thought Christian husbands were suppose to be dominate!!!!!. Are you all nuts. I have to be a servent to her? But shes a woman and I am a man. "B. Husband is responsible for success or failure of home 1. Has heavier responsibility than his wife, submission is easy compared to husband's role" So if my family or wife screws up, its my fault?I guess if she cheats on me, its my fault I couldnt fulfill her. What? "C. Provides for physical needs, financial security Gen 3:19 1Tim 5:8 Woman not given this role" I believe in something called equality okay. Women and men share the work. Stop blaming everything on the man and forcing him to do everything. "Failure to honor the wife hinders the prayers of the husband. God will not answer the prayers of any husband who dishonors his wife, no matter who he is or how much he professes Christ. What God hears is the sigh of the wife, not the prayers of a mean and domineering husband. The husband can cry out to God all he wants, but God’s back is turned away from him and toward the sigh of the wife. Notice that God places full accountability for original sin on Adam's shoulders, NOT Eve's." I have nothing to say to this!!!!!! This is all propaganda. Why should man act this way. We are not servents of women!!!!!! Are not woman made from man? Did not many blame God for favoring man over woman? Then what is this I see? Man are not leaders but servents to their wife. Man should not be domineering, but to honor and praise her. Man are suppose to carry the burdens of the family. Why should I do this? Is not one person responsible for him or herself? Does not one person have the right to be selfish? Why must I die for her? Propaganda!!!!! ALl I have to say is that I am born to be a player, to be loved and admired by women!!! I am no Christian husband, one who serves woman and blames all on himself.!!!! (Edited by xxsupermanxx2000 at 3:37 am on Mar. 27, 2006) 
I guess you'd rather go the Islamic way, beat them if they disobey you, look them in rooms, treat them as sex toys. Basicaly treat them like domestic pets. 
NO I just emphasis on equality. For example, if the family cant support itself economically, that isnt the man's fault, its the family's fault. As well, if the woman cheats on the man, the man has the right to fully blame the woman, instead of asking if he had done something wrong to cause her to do this. I am just saying its unrealistic to expect man to be so considerate, loving, and responsible.

Superman, your post vascillates between not liking the Bible's rules because it doesn't offer equality between the sexes and not liking the Bible's rules because it doesn't make you a dominant sex god to whom all women must bow. Find a f*cking opinion and stick with it. 
I stick with both. I treat women equally. Just I praise my gf as a trophy girlfriend, she praise me as a god. Its equal. And both man and woman play the roles they should play. Also, my argument is not about equality or praise. its about how the Bible empahsis forced man to be like angels to his wife, which is unrealistic 
It's pretty sick that you want your gf to treat you as a god. But you are aware that the Bible says women are to submit to man right? But the Bible also says to love them as Christ loved the Church. I don't see why you have such a problem with that. (Edited by YahwehisHisname at 1:05 pm on Mar. 27, 2006) 
hummm... I just dont see why I have to die for her. Its only natural that everyone cares about number 1, or themselves. Why do I have to give myself to die for another person. WHo is to guarnatee that she loves me as much as to die for me. We have a right to be selfish, man and woman. I dont expect her to die for me, so dont expect me to die for her!!!!!

This really says alot about you. One trate of a Christian is to be selfless. Why would you not want to die for the one you loved. Yahshua did it, why can't you? And it says to love her anough that you would die for her, you know if she were in trouble. Why would you not want to sacrifice your life for hers if you were to truely love her? The Bible doesn't tell men to be pushovers, but it also tells them to love their wifes and to treat them with respect.

Then you'll be a piss-poor husband. 
One might argue that'd he'd be a human person of equivalent quality.
I stick with both. I treat women equally. Just I praise my gf as a trophy girlfriend, she praise me as a god. Its equal. And both man and woman play the roles they should play.
So you're saying that the roles that men and women play are equal, but different? That is, roughly, the position of many Christians. Your position diverges in that you consider the woman's role to be existing as an item representative of a man's own glory, and that you consider a man's roll to be glorious. If you want a woman to praise you as glorious, and you are praising her for being a shiny bauble to dangle before the world as a measure of your worth as a man, I would hardly call that equal. No, I don't see the equality in one member of the partnership being, at best, a pet, at worst, an object.
Also, my argument is not about equality or praise. its about how the Bible empahsis forced man to be like angels to his wife, which is unrealistic.
The Bible, being a series of stories and laws, is hardly in a position to force you to do anything any more than a Harry Potter book, Dianetics, or Green Eggs and Ham.
Wash your mouth out with soup buddy. You're like a child. You are much more mature than this horseman. I really appreciate your replies, but stop acting like a child. Start acting like the contributor you are. 
When vulgarity is used in conjunction with a valid point, or at the very least witty or amusing commentary, I hardly see it as immature. I have to admit, though, that I find it amusing I'm having judgements made on me by someone I consider a handful of steps above sociopathy. (Edited by TheOtherHorseman at 8:14 pm on Mar. 27, 2006)
