"Husband, you must give honor to your wives. Treat you wife with understanding as you live together. She may be weaker than you, but she is an EQUAL PARTNER
in God's gift of new life. Treat her as you should so your prayers will not be hindered."
Do you believe that men and women are equal? God does not discriminate between men and women. God respects both and in fact tells us in our One Truth Today that your wife is an EQUAL PARTNER in God's gift of new life. It is noted in this scripture that men have more physical strength then women and they are referred to as the "weaker vessel", but the Lord sees husbands and wives, men and women as EQUAL PARTNERS in His gift of new and eternal life! Husbands are to be the head of their household and their authority must be respected, but
they must treat their wives with equal honor and understanding, because she is an EQUAL PARTNER in God's sight. If you do not want your prayers to be hindered you had better Listen!
Jesus Christ the Lord God has the same respect for both men and women and both are equal in His Kingdom. When it comes to the free gift of eternal life, we are all equal partners with God!
There is no distinction between sexes in Heaven. Men need to understand God's heart and how He sees us as individual spirits with equal value and the same spirit! While here on earth all married men should live considerately with their wives and give them honor. Their should be a joint recognition and an intelligent attitude about your marriage relationship. You are Joint heirs of the Kingdom of God. You are EQUAL PARTNERS!
As a man, if you abuse your authority as the head of the house, your prayers and your life will be hindered and you will suffer. Your prayers can be cut off and never reach the Lord if you do not honor your wife. Strive to be of one mind, aligned with God and His Word! Respect one another as God respects you. Live the plan for your life that is outlined in His Word. Never dishonor or disrespect your wife. How have you been doing men? Do you see your wife as an EQUAL PARTNER?
