FUNDAMENTAL LESSON BEFORE MARRIAGE

Q1: “’Husband’ does not mean the male partner in a marriage. ‘Husband’ means ‘master’! Ignorance of this is the reason for a lot of problems Christians are having in their marriage…”
Q2: “Marriage in Christianity for most people is just a flop. Why? Because they don’t agree with God’s definitions. They have theirs. Many Christian wives erroneously believe they are equal partners with their husbands…”
Q3: “If most women had their father bold enough to talk to them, they’d be very successful in their marriage and they’d be very happy people. Most women have never been taught by their fathers. That’s their biggest problem-they don’t know who a man is. They think he’s another woman…”
Q4: “In a marriage, you have the man, who is the head of that union, and because he is the head of that union, it is important (for his wife) to understand him…until you know who you have married…it’s like working for somebody or serving somebody and not knowing what he wants…When you say that you are marrying a man, you are coming under his authority. When you decide not to subject yourself to that authority, you are a rebel and God’s not gonna accept what you are doing. The Bible says the man is the head of the woman…You’re not authority sharers even though you’re both heirs to the Kingdom of God, because there, there’s neither male nor female, but we’re functioning here. That’s why you were given the body of a woman and he the body of a male…”

Q7: “If you’d just listen to the Word of God, you won’t have all this fighting in your marriage.”
Q8: “No husband wants another mother; he’s had one all his life. He doesn’t want an older sister; he probably had one. Your secret is in obedience, in listening to your husband, in doing those things that please him. When you don’t do those things that please your husband, you take the role of a mother or an older sister. What happens automatically is
he starts seeing you differently. The reaction he has for those that try to tell him what to do will be the reaction he’ll have towards you…”
Q9: “A man loves the one he serves and the one that serves him. He fights the one that is at the same level with him.”
Q10: “Don’t make your life hard. To be happy in your marriage and in your home is the easiest thing in the world. Just take your role. Take your place. That place that God gave you is a beautiful place, a place of peace, love, excellence. When you come out of it, you’d find it’s not a husband you have; you call him a husband but he’s not…”
Q11: “Learn to listen to your husband. Learn it. Practice it. Tell yourself you’re going to do it. That is where your beauty is. Once you stop listening all your beauty evaporates. It’s something you probably don’t know. Beauty is in obedience. That’s where the glory is. Once you’re not obedient, once you’re harsh and talk anyhow to your husband, your beauty evaporates; he can’t see it anymore…”
Q12: “You can have a better life. Why should a marriage become a war zone? You can have a better life.
