Marriage God’s Way, Part 3: Duties of the Husband

Posted by .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) | Categories: Choices, Commitment, Fidelity, Marriage God's Way, Ephesians, 1 Timothy, 1 Peter

According to God's arrangement for marriage, the husband is given the position of headship. Instead of being some sort of privileged figure-head role, it is actually one of sacrificial love and responsibility. The husband's duty is to pattern his leadership of the family after Christ's headship of the church in that everything done in fulfillment of the role is for the ultimate good of those under him. When the husband functions properly within this pattern, God is pleased and the family is benefited.... and the marriage "works"!

About the Church of Christ

The Southside Church of Christ family is a group of people who are striving to learn, understand, and live what God's Word teaches. We want to be New Testament Christians- nothing more, and certainly nothing less.

We call ourselves a "Church of Christ" for several reasons:

We seek to be the Church according to His teaching, therefore we belong to Him;
It is a scriptural name by which saints in the New Testament were called [Romans 16:16]; and,
It hopefully identifies us to others as people who are trying to be the non-denominational Church which Jesus Christ purchased with his blood [Acts 20:28].
