The word of God says: “Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her ” (Ephesians 5:25)
Well, it says Jesus loved the church and died for her. And the church is not referring to a building but people like you and I who follow Jesus Christ.
If that is the case, when the Bible calls husbands to love their wives as Jesus loved the church and died for her, it is in a way telling husbands that Jesus died for them and the word of God is calling husbands to love their wives as they are loved by Jesus.
Wow, do you see that?
But if husbands don’t have any understanding of how much they are loved by Jesus, how can they love their wives?
They can’t.
So, they have to first learn how much they are loved and treasured by Jesus Christ before they even think of loving their wives. Until they do that, they find it a daily war to love their wives. ///
