Is "Respect" Really

Should there be MUTUAL Respect in a Marriage? Mutual Honor? Or it is just the job of a wife to offer respect?
Misunderstanding what the Bible teaches about "Respect" is One of the Most Common ingredients that contribute to the Failure of Christian Marriages - and probably Affects Your Own Marriage - Without You Even Realizing it!

Dear Friend,
As Christians, we have been taught for at least the past 50 years that the bedrock of all marriage teaching, the rule that we should live our lives by, can be summed up by a single short passage -- Ephesians 5:21-33.
We're sure you know the passage we're talking about, but here it is just in case...
|
Ephesians 5:21-33
Submitting to one another in the fear of God. Wives, submit to your husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is head of the church; and He is the Savior of the body. Therefore, just as the church is subject to Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in everything. Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her, that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word, that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish. So husbands ought to love their own wives as their own bodies; he who loves his wife loves himself. For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as the Lord does the church. For we are members of His body, of His flesh and of His bones. “For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.” This is a great mystery, but I speak concerning Christ and the church. Nevertheless let each one of you in particular so love his own wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband. |
This passage has been the foundation of teaching for those who believe that a wife is to submit to her husband’s authority; authority that this passage is believed to bestow.
It has also been the basis for the concept that a wife is to "respect" her husband and a husband is to love his wife. Yes! A husband IS supposed to love his wife. However, a husband is ALSO supposed to "respect" his wife!
The popular idea has been that a man's number one need in marriage is for his wife to respect him!
Sorry.
Respect is great.
Everyone enjoys mutual respect and wants it in their marriage - but a man's number 1 need is not to be respected.
Being respecteed is the RESULT of loving and respecting his wife first! Teaching that a man's number one need is to be "respected" is totally off base.
It contributes to an "all about me" and selfish approach to marriage by husbands - and this is where things get dangerous for the Christian marriage...
In addition to these wrong ideas about respect, a woman is taught that her husband is to be the final decision maker in the household.
Her job is to submit her desires, convictions and leadings to the desires, convictions and leadings of her husband.
We have been conditioned to view this passage by consistent and repeated reinforcements that slant it a certain way.
The years of conditioning make it almost impossible to read the passage without coming away with the idea that a woman’s submission to and respect of her husband are the key to happiness in marriage, God’s way.
But what does the word "respect" really mean?
The Greek word for "respect" is Phobeo - and we are told to "Fear Not" - REPEATEDLY. Jesus himself said "Phobeo not!" - after he rose from the dead and appeared to many. He told John to "fear not" on the Isle of Patmos.
If our risen Lord and Savior tells us to "Phobeo NOT" - then why would we be taught that a wife is to "phobeo" her husband?
What do we do with this?
This is what you will learn, in detail in this mini-course!
This has been a huge contributor to the 50% divorce rate -- that Christian women are told that they have a responsibility to "respect" their husbands...even if their husbands are not acting respectably.
Men were told that they "deserved" respect, just because they were married! The message was not MUTUAL respect. The message was "Wives, respect your husbands!"
But it gets worse...
Ephesians and
the Dangerous
"Doctrine of Authority..."
"Doctrine of Authority..."
The church has taken these ideas that appear to address wives and built a doctrine of authority in the home that has brought harm to Christian marriages.
This doctrine of authority states:
-- A husband is God’s “delegated authority” over his wife (her head).
-- A wife is to be subservient, secondary, and a “subject” in her husband’s kingdom. (Subject to her husband.) She is told that if she is not submissive to her husband, her rebellion is not to man but to God himself.
-- If she disrespects her husband, she is actually disrespecting God’s order in the home.
This doctrine of authority is a sacred cow.
But here's the startling truth, and why it may be destroying your marriage from the inside out...
A gross misinterpretation of the true
message of Ephesians has brought misery to many Christian couples.
It is a flawed paradigm of marriage that does not work!
It is a flawed paradigm of marriage that does not work!
In our ministry and through our books, marriage intensives, seminars, and audio programs, we have consistently tried to study and re-learn this passage...
...to find out what it really means -- to discover how it became twisted and misused, and to teach thousands of couples its true meaning and help Christian couples everywhere turn around their marriage.
Today we're offering a very special opportunity to learn this life-changing lesson -- the very same teaching that, all by itself, has led to immediate and lasting change in couples around the world.
In a previous course, we focused in very specifically on Ephesians 5:21-22 to explain the concept of mutual submission.
Then, in our second course, we focused specifically on Ephesians 5:23-33 -- and explained what Headship really means.
Now, we are focusing SPECIFICALLY on Ephesians 5:33 - and explaining the WONDERFUL and POWERFUL truth of what Respect really means!
Where it belongs in a Christian marriage. How it fits! It is a GREAT truth when PROPERLY understood. When misunderstood? It is devastating to women AND to men!
