Truth From the Bible About Marriage
Wives,
be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the
head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the church, He Himself
being the Savior of the body. But as the church is subject to Christ, so
also the wives ought to be to their husbands in everything. Husbands, love
your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for
her, so that He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of
water with the word, that He might present to Himself the church in all
her glory, having no spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she would
be holy and blameless. So husbands ought also to love their own wives as
their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself; for no one ever
hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ also
does the church, because we are members of His body. For this reason a man
shall leave his father and mother and shall be joined to his wife, and the
two shall become one flesh. Ephesians 5:22-31
