Myth, 69

 ~ The Biblical Family Model Leads to Domestic Abuse ~

Introduction  ~  Nothing could be further from the truth!

The Key Command  ~  “Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her” (Ephesians 5:25).

Christ’s Example  ~  How did Christ love the Church?  “Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men.  And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the Cross” (Philippians 2:5-9).
