The "How Submission"?


The Bible says that husbands should love their wives while the wives should submit to their husbands, right?.

But i want to know if submission is possible without love.

Is submission by love or by force ?

Because i strongly believe that submission by force is a submission in parts (not in all)
while submission by love is a submission in all things

This is because it's so easy and natural to yield to love than to force.

Pls husband love your wife and you'll have her at your becks and calls

Unfortunately bloodwashed,many christian men ge submission mixed up with subjection.I don`t know whats worse;a hen pecked Husband or a brow beaten wife.Neither should exist in a Christian partnership.
We submit primarily to christ in each other.
Many husbands in their own insecurity's find spirit filled woman intimidating and fall back on a shallow interpretation of scriptures That make them feel superior.
God Bless you

Wow! I just love this :- "if the choice is taken away and submission is by force, it becomes oppression instead"

flesh and blood has not revealed to you but God's Spirit Himself.

i do hope you'll love your wife as christ loved church so much so that He laid His life down for her.

Remain blessed always and thanks for your contributions

Dear sister do you know that in many cases there is love in the absence of submission? Do you know also that there is submission in the absence of love? Each one should perform his own duty as unto the Lord.
With love,
Brother Patrick.

my darling brother, a love not reciprocated dies quickly before it's time and submission needs the presence of love to germinate and blossom in all aspects.

submission is possible without love but such submission is in parts not all aspects or areas

Like brother above rightly put it :

"submission is by love and our choice. And if love is taken away and submission becomes by force it is no longer submission but OPPRESSION! "

Thanks for visiting and i really appreciate it.
pls come again
God bless
