Husbands—Recognize Christ’s Headship

“The head of every man is the Christ.”—1 CORINTHIANS 11:3.

How to Face Marital Challenges

How should husbands dwell with their wives?

In todayÂ’s troubled world, husbands especially need to imitate JesusÂ’ example of patience, love, and firmness in upholding righteous principles. (2 Timothy 3:1-5)

With regard to the model Jesus left, we read in the Bible: “You husbands, continue dwelling in like manner with [your wives] according to knowledge.” (1 Peter 3:7)

Yes, husbands need to face marital challenges in a knowledgeable manner, just as Jesus faced difficulties. He suffered greater trials than has any other human, but he was aware that Satan, his demons, and this evil world were responsible for them. (John 14:30; Ephesians 6:12)

Jesus was never surprised by trials, so neither should marriage mates be surprised when they experience “tribulation in their flesh.” The Bible warns that those who marry can expect to have such tribulation.—1 Corinthians 7:28.

Husbands, the Bible says, should dwell with their wives “according to knowledge, assigning them honor as to a weaker vessel, the feminine one.” (1 Peter 3:7)

Rather than harshly dominating his wife, as the Bible foretold that men would commonly do, a husband who wins GodÂ’s approval will honor her. (Genesis 3:16)

He will want to treat her as a prized possession, never using his greater physical strength to hurt her. Instead, he will consider her feelings, always treating her with respect and dignity. -
