Seems all too clear. But then you have to deal with the flesh. That tends to make it not so clear fish. You are very correct though. And it beats me how people can clintonize the word of God to uphold their rebellion. It all depends what is is?
I did already.
The husband's spiritual role of headship is not akin to the husband having the power to tell his spouse what to do arbitrarily.
A husband who tells his spouse that she may not vote does not have the scriptural authority to do so.
1. I've answered the original question at least twice.
2. I never said anything about abusive husbands.
3. I responded to other points brought up by various posters.
4. I will post anything I consider relevant.
5. I pointed out how God uses the word "obey" for children but not for wives as it seemed to me some people were talking as though the husband-wife relationship is the same as the parent-child relationship. It is not.
The flaw is on you, actually, since I've refuted (with scripture) every scriptural arguement you've thrown up on this board.
You've refused to even acknowlege any of my posts regarding scripture.
You're at this point simply repeating yourself, but without scriptural support.
You're engaging in the KJVO tactic of "prove to me that scripture says it's kay to have multiple translations", when it's the KJVO whose job it is to provide scriptural support for his assertion.
Im sorry john maybe I got out of hand. I do think that husbands should not be unreasonable with there leadership. but I also think that if asked not to vote by her husband a woman should not vote, not because her husband's judgement is correct but because she does not want to be commiting rebellion.
Im sorry for mixing my own personal feelings into this debate.
I would not say that "submit" to a husband means to agree with his authority -- it means to let him lead and respect him as the spiritual head, and to not fight him. But that is different from obedience to authority. Can a wife disagree with her husband's desire and not be in rebellion? Yes. That is why the word is "submit" and not "obey."
