SERMON (Upa. Khupzatun)
“Wives, submit to your own husband, as is fitting to the Lord
- Colossians 3:18 “
The sermon encircles on the role of woman in Christian family. Love is essential for all beings, in the chemistry between husband and wife, love is the bond which binds them.
Why should wife submit herself to husband?
In a family husband and wife relationship plays a crucial role. Obedient/intelligent wife is the one who submit herself to her husband as she knows this will set her free. She will be totally fit in the arms of her husband as well as to the eyes of her in-law. While in disobedient/rude wife will be a prisoner and will never be happy in the family, for they must be pity.
As a human being we tend to take each other granted and gradually we decreased the love we shared between wife-husband, family, and friends. But our Lord Jesus Christ love us even when we are far away from him. He suffered because he love us however we are
We should never take each other for granted but should learn how to admire each other..
GUIDELINES FOR CHRISTIAN WOMEN
