I BELIEVE
that husbands are to love their wives even as Christ loved
the church and gave himself for her;
that wives should submit themselves to their own husbands
as unto the Lord;
that children should obey their parents in the Lord;
that fathers should not provoke their children to wrath,
but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the
Lord;
that the truth of God is to be taught diligently to our
children when we sit in our house, walk by the way, lie
down, and rise up;
that God commands husbands and wives to be fruitful and
to multiply and fill the earth and subdue it and have
dominion over it;
that children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit
of the womb is his reward;
that aged women teach young women to be sober minded,
loving their husband and children, discreet, chaste, keepers
at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the
word of God be not blasphemed;
that if any provide not for his own, and especially for
those of his own house, he has denied the faith and is
worse than an infidel;
that John came before Christ in the spirit and power of
Elijah to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children;
that many in the patriarchy movement misinterpret these verse summaries and other scriptures, ignoring sound exegesis and application of Christian liberty.
