Bible Question: I'm wondering if someone can help direct me to some biblical guidance on submission of a wife. |
Bible Answer: eileen8, As much as is possible, submission in the New Testament refers to those "equally yoked." To try to answer your question would be too vague and would not address the problem you mentioned earlier. Submission to a non believing spouse (I assume since you said he is alcoholic) would entale all scriptures except where he would ask or expect you to violate Biblical principals. Those of course would be too involved to answer here. If you can please be more specific. On the Forum we do not generally give personal advise as this is highly unwise without knowing all the facts. Then again you would get such a wide range of answers you'd be more confused than ever. Kind of like my many answers to tonights questions............!!! God's grace to you eileen8 InGodITrust |
