Sermon Quotes
Proverbs 14:1; 31:20, 23; 5:18–19; 27:5: 19:13; 17:9; 12:4
[1] The wisest of women builds her house,
but folly with her own hands tears it down.
[20] She opens her hand to the poor
and reaches out her hands to the needy.
[23] Her husband is known in the gates
when he sits among the elders of the land.
[18] Let your fountain be blessed,
and rejoice in the wife of your youth,
[19] a lovely deer, a graceful doe.
Let her breasts fill you at all times with delight;
be intoxicated always in her love. Blank
[5] Better is open rebuke
than hidden love.
[13] A foolish son is ruin to his father,
and a wife’s quarreling is a continual dripping of rain.
[9] Whoever covers an offense seeks love,
but he who repeats a matter separates close friends.
[4] An excellent wife is the crown of her husband,
but she who brings shame is like rottenness in his bones.

Ephesians 5:22–30
[22] Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. [23] For the husband is the head of the wife even as Christ is the head of the church, his body, and is himself its Savior. [24] Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit in everything to their husbands.
[25] Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, [26] that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, [27] so that he might present the church to himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish. [28] In the same way husbands should love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. [29] For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church, [30] because we are members of his body.
