22 Apr The genders purpose in marriage.
Two heads are better than one.
Marriage is about a man and a woman; Husband and wife, who live as a couple.
One of the purposes of Marriage is For a party to carry out his or her duty lawfully and godly to complement the other party according to how God deposited it in everyone. God, in his wisdom, deliberately divided responsibilities or duties among human beings according to gender matrimony, for every gender to be valuable and relevant, based on his or her duty in the marriage.
Feminism.
This is in total negation to what some people call feminism. Feminism, is totally the agenda of the devil, and anything that comes from the devil is always against God’s purpose for life.
Just imagine a woman expecting that when she carries the pregnancy of the first child, her man will be the one to carry the pregnancy of the second child. That what a woman did, a man should be able to do same. Does that make any sense? Just stick to your duty as it applies to your gender, all you need to carry on, is complement from your spouse. It would boost your strength.
One day it would be a compulsory duty of the man to go with a little baby under 6 month of age to wherever he goes. A baby whose major food is breast milk how would such a responsibility that is accrued to woman by God concerning the baby be suddenly shifted to man. In that regard, the agenda of God for humanity has been altered.
By so doing, such an individual should never expect that God will be happy with the act.
The Bible says in Genesis 6:5-7
Now the Lord observed the extent of the people’s wickedness, and he saw that all their thoughts were consistently and totally evil.
v6 So the Lord was sorry he had ever made them. It broke his heart.
v7 And the Lord said, “I will completely wipe out this human race that I have created. Yes, and I will destroy all the animals and birds, too. I am sorry I ever made them.”
There are duties that are intertwined, there are also some that are exclusively for a gender.
Intertwine
For example, it is a collective responsibility of a couple to look after a child as he grows in the things of life.
The bible says,
And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.
Luke 2:52
The parental care he received on earth was by Joseph the father and Mary the mother.
Good and exceptional children in life are products of collective effort of parents.
Just imagine a woman believing that it’s the duty of everyone in the family to sort themselves out every day as far as food is concerned. while coming from the office, the man has to first go and look for what he would eat before retiring home for the day.
So, the woman can come home anytime she wants; such a family will become a lawless family.
Then, what is the purpose for marriage; if we have to follow the belief that everything that man can do, woman should be able to do, vice versa.
God deliberately made it so, that we, will at one time or the other be in need of one another.
This ultimately promotes unity against isolation. Why would someone think that he or she can be all things to him or herself? It’s only God that is omnipotent. We all need ourselves.
Paul says in the Bible ‘i planted and Apollo waters, God gives increase.
this shows us that one has the seed and another has the water. The seed man need the water, likewise the water has nothing to wet if the one with seed refused to plant. They both need each other. where the one with seed thinks he has what it takes to own seed and water, time will tell if he or she can actually do so successful! By the time the result will come, whatever profit he or she has made may not be enough to correct the consequent error of one man doing all.
Exclusive duty.
Exclusive duties are the duties that are peculiar to individual, where no other person shares performance with him or her.
Such duties among couples are few. Most duties in a marriage of unity are mutual.
Nevertheless, here are a few of them.
1. Academic examinations is exclusive.
2. Passing waste from the body system is exclusive.
3. Feeling a taste is exclusive.
4. Salvation is exclusive.
5. Exclusive of satisfaction.
1. Academic examinations are strictly exclusive.
Examination is a test given to an individual or a student of a school by the body coordinating the affairs the institution. It is not meant for two people. A husband cannot sit for his wife in an examination hall, and neither can the wife sit for her husband. One admission-one person. One person-one sitting space.
2. Passing waste from the body system.
Passing waste from the body system is not a joint responsibility. It is exclusively for one body. There is nothing like he or she is not around, I want to assist to pass it out of the body for him or her.
It cannot be done on behalf of anyone.
3. Feeling taste.
Feeling the taste for self experience is exclusive. It is until one puts a consumable in his mouth that his tongue can tell him how it looks like and how it tastes. It is possible for someone to report his feelings about the taste of a product, it does not represent the general. Every individual will still have to confirm that, by put it in the mouth to drawn out personal conclusion as it concerns him or her.
4. Salvation is exclusive.
Salvation is personal thing, the husband is born again and save from all forms of iniquity does not automatically apply to the wife. She must workbout her Salvation with trembling and hold onto that which she has received. The reason being that before the white judgment thrown, everyone will stand for him or herself to give account of all he or she did while on earth.
Philippians 2:12
Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
5. Exclusive satisfaction.
No one can tell you if you are satisfied with something. It is you that can tell through your experience and display it through your countenance, speech and possibly your patronage if it comes to products or services.
