Verse of the Day, October 2, 2020
Ephesians 5:25-26 KJV “Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; [26] That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,”
As antiquated as this may sound, still wives are to submit themselves to their own husbands just as they would to the LORD. Why? It’s because the husband is the head of the wife as CHRIST is the head of the church and savior of the body.
The husband also has been appointed as such in his household. The church is subject to CHRIST, let wives also become or remain subject to their own husbands.
Husbands, be sure to love your wives to the degree CHRIST loved the church. Remember, HE gave HIMSELF for the church, HIS wife; this way HE sanctified and cleansed it with the washing of the water by the word.
Now the church is presented gloriously without spot or wrinkle, without blemish before the FATHER. Husbands, do the same to your wives; love them as you do your very own body!

Ephesians 5 King James Version
21 Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.
22 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.
23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.
24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.
25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,
27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself.
29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:
30 For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.
31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.
