This series really blessed me. Even though I already knew many of the things he said, hearing them again helps me to remember them and solidify them in my mind, but the things I didn't know really made me rich. God bless his soul and his family and his children.
R.C. is such a Godly Pastor. He really spoke Truth about how Marriage is meant to be, through the Heart, and Love of God. This is such a Godly & Beautiful Sermon on Marriage Equality/Roles of BOTH the Husband and Wife. Thanks be to Our Lord and Father in Heaven, for speaking TRUTH through Pastor R.C. Sproul!!! Amen
A bit of perspective perhaps? This stuff is very beneficial for a young woman like me who wasn’t raised Christian, who doesn’t understand what submission is, how it works and etc. :) as a Christian of course I want to obey. However it’s beneficial for me to learn the context of the text and what it means to submit.
I completely understand where you come from though at the same time! I don’t think it’s too complicated what the scriptures mean, especially when put together this way.
@@crystaladcox7266 I'm guessing Diana is fed up with our culture's inability to submit to God's Word, not with the teaching itself. It's certainly always good to hear the Word and this topic is definitely relevant in these times!
Hi there ... I believe God desires us to understand the reasons why He gives such a command hence why we have teachers like Sproul who expound on it ... otherwise we'd be following Gods commands in vain which doesn't build our relationship with Him
The hard part is when God will deal with the unloving selfish husband later and shows us to submit onto a man who does not follow God's word. That's hard. People assume men love their wife and they assume she is some banshee if he doesn't. I have learned a new thing....some people are takers. Faith in christ and the afterlife is our focus when this life hasn't any benefit
What if a husband has no concern for his wife's financial well-being? If she has to work to earn money to pay bills, buy everything she needs from her small earnings, and clean and keep the house, and keep the garden, and clean up after his children and him, while he earns a lot, and says he has to save money in case of emergencies. Is the wife wrong for thinking this is wrong? Does she continue to submit? If she has lost her admiration... And have become quarrelsome and angry..? She is sinning, right..?
I’m sorry for what you are going through- pray that God changes your husbands heart, and helps him to really take responsibility to love and care for you. Obsessive saving is sometimes rooted in not really trusting the future to God.
I think there is a bible verse about the woman winning over an unbelieving husband through her conduct. Byt elsewhere says a man who doesn’t provide is worse than an unbeliever, so i giess win him over through conduct? How did things end up?
What if you as the wife are the provider? Women like me carry both the burden and money worry he claims men have and the call for submission. Women get scared and tired too when we have to be the one providing.
WHAT'S BIBLICAL WEDDING💒? Marriage is an important ceremony in the human life. Preachers used to touch on how God created Man & Woman but not what basis God created man & woman? God created man by His image & also He created woman comparable to man, meaning in the image of Adam God created Eve. So, both were ultimately in the image of God, the point is that comparable or compatibility is what His methodology & the same is still exists, as human beings are born based on this methodology both men & women. God created plants, animals, fruits, vegetables, and all of those creations are continuing till day, the similar way God created Adam & Eve, and all of the humans continue to be born, having the same methodology or pattern. So, according to God's method or pattern only both men & women are born but through sin & sexuality which isn't a God's way but sinful or satanic way. Therefore, if anyone plans for a wedding 💒 then he has to go with a method or pattern of God & apply in search of his/her life partner. In this method, it's fixed that there is a man born for a particular woman and the same is vice versa. There's no need of looking or seeking a life partner out there in the school, college, workplace or in the places of worship or any other places. There's no need to get counseling from the parents, elders, pastors who promote traditional counselling to look for a woman or man who is humble, gentle, honest, God fearing, loving & caring etc., In these kinds of method are seems moral and good but it's not a biblical wedding 💒. These sorts of weddings are moral & worldly, and it may seem successful b/c couples who got married may live happily for 50 years or 70 years, and until death & in this sort of couples may be found among all religions & even among atheists. Thus, it's not a biblical wedding. In the Biblical Wedding 💒, both man & woman who have been born for each other shall be brought together at an appropriate time, this is well known in advance to the one who initiates a biblical wedding 💒 by discovering the creation law of God & apply in search of the life Partner. However, in this sort of biblical wedding there's a threat as the adversary of God isn't allow anyone to proceed such a biblical wedding, and take action to destroy such a life Project by destroying the lives of a couple. This might be noted in the meeting of JESUS with a Samaritan woman who have been born comparable to JESUS as a bride & her life was destroyed due to her fiancee's attempt of a biblical wedding 💒, wherein it's known the Samaritan woman depicts the entire mankind and JESUS has been depicted as God the Father who created the heavens & earth 🌎. In the beginning Adam & Eve were supposed to be fruitful, multiply & fill the earth through Godly way but missed out & joined with a adversary thus, the kingdom of heaven wasn't started its journey. Finally, in these last days, anyone attempt to build a Godly life then he choose Biblical Wedding 💒, rather than traditional weddings of men, and in this way his life would be lost but there's a promise of God in Matthew 16:25...whoever loses his life for my sake shall find it, meaning he will find his eternal life & JESUS will return within his life time & commence the kingdom of heaven wherein both a man & woman start their eternal journey of a biblical wedding 💒. So, whatever the wedding 💒 that happened throughout the ages are all both moral and immoral irrespective of their religious affiliation but nothing to do with a Biblical Wedding 💒.
In Romans 13, we are to submit to authorities because they are set up by God. Resisting them means resisting God. Same analogy applies…God has ordained men as head. Resisting a man’s leadership and headship is like resisting God…
RC Sproul is a very good teacher but I am a bit surprised at his comment about whether or not a woman wants to go to the Wednesday evening Bible study or get together that the husband in this theoretical situation would say no and he says You must obey your husband because it's not the weekly assembly. Now although there is an indication that there was a weekly gathering on the Lord's Day it's very clear historically and I'm sure spiral would know this that they would assemble on every day they could which practically they couldn't because they were working and so on but it could be a late night Wednesday it could be an early morning Tuesday and certainly they made sure they were assembling on the Sabbath Lord's day Sunday which maybe controversial for some but not in God's word and historical evidence they met on Sunday and called it the Sabbath in case if the church is to assemble that is a priority over the family assembly and I know that may be a bit controversial too and I know many teachers teach otherwise but it is the church that are God's people not the family you could have the family and non-believers or have one who is a believer and the other an unbeliever and have a family of children and none of them are believers and yet your neighbor who is a brother or sister in Christ is your family that's eternal and when they gather there is any gathering that should be our priority.
How do you get that Sunday is the only day that you can forsake the assembly? We even break bread gathering at houses, dueiemg thenweek,e1 zzz zzz see s asven, -according to †he Holy Scriptures
Jesus was born a male child Rev. 12:5 to replace the male component of humanity because they are genetically flawed. That is why Paul said “since by a man death, by a man also the resurrection of the dead, for as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive” in 1 Cor. 15: 21 - 22, and “the first man, Adam, became a living soul, the last Adam a life giving spirit” in v 45. Notice the contrast of natural and spiritual v44 in the comparison of Adam and Christ! The man had succumbed to Satan’s temptation and was given authority over all the kingdoms of the world to which Jesus said “Go, Satan! For it is written, you shall worship the lord your God and serve him only” Matt. 4: 1 - 10. In Gen. 2:14 was the beginning of Assyria, who is described in Ezekiel 31 as a cedar in Lebanon very high, its top among the clouds, the waters from the deep (Satan) made it grow high . . . its heart was haughty in its loftiness v.10 . . . Yahweh said “ . . .according to its wickedness I have driven it away v.11 . . . Alien tyrants of the nations have cut it down and left it v.12 on its ruin all the birds of the heavens will dwell, and all the beasts of the field will be on its fallen branches v13 so that all the trees by the waters may not be exalted in the stature, nor set their top among the clouds, nor their well waters might ones stand in their height, for they have all been given over to death, to the earth beneath, among the sons of men, with those who go down to the pit” v14. The woman in the garden of Eden was the precious stone (eben) in Gen. 2:12 which was built (banah) into a woman in Gen. 2:22, whose seed God put enmity between with the seed of the serpent. Women who in labor and pain bring forth children, ruled over by mighty ones if she desired them over God in Gen. 3:15 & 16. Women who gave birth to a son, a male, who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron Rev. 12: 1 - 2, & 5 who is quite obviously Israel! Which is why the saints are “as a bride adorned for her husband” Rev. 21:2.
Gen. 2 & 3 are horribly mistranslated to cover up what really went wrong. Why God turned mankind to dust in Gen. 2:7, which is when mankind lost eternal life as Paul states in 1 Cor. 15:45 (that’s right folks he didn’t nicely make us from the dust like we’ve been led to believe), took one side of the man and built a woman in Gen. 2:21 - 22 (God didn’t make the woman from the mans rib, yet another lie!), and evicted THE MAN (not the woman!) from the garden of Eden, because Yahweh said “behold, THE MAN (not the woman!) has become apart from us doing good and evil . . . ” in Gen. 3:22 - 24 (he hadn’t become “like one of us”, and didn’t just ‘know’ good and evil, but experienced it). In Gen. 2:10 rosh is found in plural form ראשים translated as ‘heads’, ‘headwaters’, ‘branches’, ‘rivers’, or even ‘riverheads’, but ‘heads’ are ‘leaders, masters, captains, fathers, husbands (where male headship is followed)’. Rosh also means ‘poison’! Yahweh said “not good become the man, separation make if only to save opposite” Gen. 2:18 (the man was not alone as we’ve been led to believe). The poison of headship was there in the garden of Eden at the beginning of time, and the reason God separated the woman from the man. Jesus commanded his disciples to “call no one teacher for one is teacher and you are brothers, and call no one father on the earth, one is your father in heaven, neither be called leaders since the leader of you is one the Christ” in Matt. 23:8 - 10, forbidding any type of headship, including fathers who position themselves as the head of the family or congregation in the Roman Catholic Church, anyone who would make themself our master and/or teacher because we are all equal before God. Jesus warned against those who lord it over others in Matthew 20:25,& Mark 10:42, being called ‘benefactors’ Luke 22:25 which today we call philanthropists, those who disguise their evil intentions under the guise of helping those less fortunate.
I can barely make it through this sermon. 🤢 The first session was much nicer than this one. What if I (the husband) want to transfer my head of the household title to my wife? I think we should be able to cooperate and work together in all and that I shouldn’t be the one to make the ultimate decisions. I think I should be allowed to obey her… 🙄
@@CrystalArrow-r2z I learned that the whole “head of the household” concept is horrible and that the word used in the Bible for ‘head’ is that meaning God. Mere man is not the head of the home.
not sure if I like this lecture of not. Sproul makes himself an 'idiot' and other men too with his comments and that defeats the message/purpose. He defeats his message point by saying that. He has hundreds of great lessons/sermons but, this one could have been much better leaving out the distracting 'idiot' comments. he let us down here. This is way too important a subject
R.C. is so good, I love my wife and I want to honor my marriage for the love that God gave me and for Christ.
Thank you Father in heaven for your servant R. C Sproul.
Amen. This brother is sorely missed.
Thank God for R.C. & UA-cam 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽we have these lectures at our fingertips
this message especially about 5-10 minutes towards the end was the most beautiful thing about relationships i've ever heard
One of the best sermons I’ve ever heard. Praise the Lord! Grateful for R.C’s life and ministry
One of the best messages on marriage i have heard. What a great expositor RC is.
This series really blessed me. Even though I already knew many of the things he said, hearing them again helps me to remember them and solidify them in my mind, but the things I didn't know really made me rich.
God bless his soul and his family and his children.
I to was incredibly Blessed by this series! You truly took the words out of my mouth.
Shalom
R.C. is such a Godly Pastor. He really spoke Truth about how
Marriage is meant to be, through the Heart, and Love of God.
This is such a Godly & Beautiful Sermon on Marriage Equality/Roles of BOTH the Husband and Wife.
Thanks be to Our Lord and Father in Heaven, for speaking TRUTH through Pastor R.C. Sproul!!!
Amen
I will teach this to my Son.
Thank you Ligonier for making this available to all.
What a great message. Praise God
I hate that the subject of women being submissive has to be explained over and over. God said it and that is enough for me.

Leadership as a man.

Some very good and inspired teaching on a difficult topic we all would struggle with if given the opportunity to teach it ourselves.
Wonderful!!! Thank you God 🙏 for your wisdom.
Loved this series
Truly uplifting 😊. Praise be to God
This need to be taught in churches
Amazing sermon!
11:55
12:19 subordinate != inferior
14:05 men has a high fear of inability to provide. Bc this is a man's responsibility
The hard part is when God will deal with the unloving selfish husband later and shows us to submit onto a man who does not follow God's word. That's hard.

Very few men even want to strive to be that kind of husband...
I agree

Right, but denying others,grace,mercy,and forgiveness is also sinning.
I’m sorry for what you are going through- pray that God changes your husbands heart, and helps him to really take responsibility to love and care for you. Obsessive saving is sometimes rooted in not really trusting the future to God.
I think there is a bible verse about the woman winning over an unbelieving husband through her conduct.
Byt elsewhere says a man who doesn’t provide is worse than an unbeliever, so i giess win him over through conduct?
How did things end up?
That man is saving incase of emergencies and NOT spending it on women, booze or toys? Please darlin give me your man...
Amen!

So who is the weaker vessel? No superiority though.
Women are, according to God. Take it up with Him.
