22 Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord.
23 For the husband is the head of the wife as
Christ is the head of the church, his body, of
which He is the Savior.
24 Now as the church submits to Christ, so also
wives should submit to their husbands in

good. You're thinking, you're listening and I want that to

Many times in the past I've had ladies, come up to me and
say, "I did not believe in the principle of submission; but
once I obeyed the Holy Spirit and became submissive to Christ
as Lord, the Lord enabled me to be submissive to my husband's
headship in the home. I want to tell you, it's made all t ...
