KEY SCRIPTURE: John 8:4 KJV” They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.”
These scribes and the Pharisees were evil accusers. Why did they leave the man but brought the woman? According to James 2:4 the word said they, acted in partiality, and therefore judges of evil thought. There is a tendency for people to maltreat, woman. There are some husbands who say women lack good judgement. This is a big error for any man to say. Women are endued with special intuition that makes them detect danger without giving any reason why that would occur. Men who hold such minds have signed up for a very dangerous life. They would take no counsel from their wives and would always come to her to say she was right. The woman in your home according to God, is a helper that God has brought to you. There are a few women, who through selfishness are not able to play the helping role effectively.
Again, why do certain men still maltreat women? They do so because they do not understand the make-up of woman. The bible says in 1 Pet 3:7 that the woman is the weaker vessel and so men should live with them according knowledge. A woman’s number one need is security. This is why the Lord asked the husband to love the wife. When a woman due to actions of the husband feels insecure, she would get to the extremes of her nature. If she is an introvert, she would be so withdrawn that the man would feel he is living with a dummy. If she is an extrovert, she will make hell for the man. All her actions explains she is seeking for that one need, security .
Men, please understand that, the woman was designed
1.To receive
2. To multiply.
She would multiply whatever you give her. If you give a tiny microscopic sperm, she would make it into a wonderful baby. If you give her a house with love, she would make it a wonderful welcoming home. In all these if you give her little trouble, she would multiply it and make it hell for you. This is the natural state of the women. The man is the initiator of most of what happens at home. Men be very considerate towards your wives.
Barring this natural state of women, I wish to advice Christian, born again wives to live according to the word of God. The Bible says wives submit to your own husband’s, irrespective of whether they love you or not. Your first allegiance is to God and His word. This would bring you a peaceful home.
CONFESSION
Women are not object of reproach and ridicule, but a bundle of beauty, tenderness and love. If their feminity is respected, and treated with love, they make the home a place of escape from the troubles outside.
THOUGHT: GIVE YOUR WIFE TRUE LOVE AND ENJOY A HOME OF EXCESS LOVE.
