Sub Mission

For Pete’s Sake
September 3, 2023

Peter’s letter continues to point us to mimic Jesus and to suffer for righteousness sake.
He asks wives to submit to their husband even when they are not in alignment with the Word that they may be won over.
Peter ascribes precious beauty in the eyes of the Lord when a woman comes under the leadership of a husband.
Submission means to come under the mission of the husband as they follow Christ instructions to love and protect.
Men are to honor their wives as treasure and not to Lord over them with a strong will.
The husband should protect their wives and remember that they are coheirs.
Men’s prayers are in jeopardy when they are not living with their wives in an understanding way.
We are called to another level of love as followers of Christ. We are called to bless those who curse us.

In general, how difficult is it for you to let someone else lead?
Wives, what has been your experience with coming under the mission of your husband?
Husbands, what has been your experience in living with your wives with honor and understanding?
Has there ever been a time when you blessed someone who hurt you?
