Achieving Spiritual Growth Husbands and Wives Achieving Spiritual Growth Ephesians 5:22-33

Defining Spiritual Growth More than knowledge Understanding and accepting the realities of relating to God Coming closer to God

Modeling the Divine Marriage accomplishes God’s purpose and demands man’s trust To fill the earth with image bearers To fill the need for community To fill a spiritual as well as a social purpose

Modeling the Divine THE DIVINE PURPOSE DEMANDS TRUST Adam had to accept the charge of God. Adam had to realize that Eve was the helper suitable. Eve had to place her trust in both Adam and God, in order to accept her role.

Modeling the Divine The home reflects the church The authority structures are very similar. This hierarchy is not based on one person being greater than the other. Authority is in the role and is to be exercised sacrificially.

Modeling the Divine The home reflects the Godhead The Godhead is composed of three equally divine persons, who operate within an authority hierarchy. Each carries out their role with consideration and submission to the other. Likewise, husbands and wives operate within a caring sacrificial authority structure.

The Interplay of Authority and Submission Divinely given roles The role of the wife is characterized by submission. The role of the husband is to love.

The Interplay of Authority and Submission The submission under consideration is “as the church is subject to Christ.” Submission demonstrates the power of faith and the value of liberty. How much more will submission to the perfect head bring one peace?

The Interplay of Authority and Submission Four Verbs that Describe Christ’s Love for the Church He gave himself up for her To sanctify her Having cleansed her That He might present her

To sum up, all of you be harmonious, sympathetic, brotherly, kindhearted, and humble in spirit; not returning evil for evil or insult for insult, but giving a blessing instead; for you were called for the very purpose that you might inherit a blessing. 1 Peter 3:8–9 NASB95
