Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; that he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church: For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church. Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband. Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord. And ye fathers provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in

“Love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her” (Ephesians 5:25)
When a man loves his wife, he will do anything for her. He will put her needs above his own, even if that means laying down his life for her. This is how Christ loves His church. Husbands were created to love their wives as Christ loves us.
- Ephesians 5:25-33
Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. After all, no one ever hated his own body, but he feeds and cares for it, just as Christ does the church—for we are members of his body. For this reason, a man will leave his father and mother and be united with his wife, and the two will become one flesh. This is a profound mystery—but I am talking about Christ and the church. However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.

Love your wife like you love yourself because there are so many things that you can learn from her about life and family. She will teach you how to show compassion and patience when dealing with other people’s problems and issues in life. She will also teach you how to be more understanding of people who have different opinions than yours by accepting them without judging them based on their beliefs or actions. Whenever your wife has a problem or issue going on in her life she will need someone who will listen without judging her or giving advice unless she asks for it first because sometimes people just
