BIBLE PASSAGE: Ephesians 5:25-33
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.

*INTRODUCTION*: For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

John 3:16. Gid’s love towards us is unconditional. Regardless of whatever happened to His Son, He gave His Sin Jesus Christ as a ransom. Similarly, God expects the Husbands to give thus kind of unconditional and agape love to their wives.

They also need to know that the head cannot move to the right or left without the support of the neck i.e. the wives. May the Holy Spirit Himself open up the inner eyes of all Husbands and give us the grace to obey Him in Jesus’ name. Amen.

*MEMORY VERSE*: Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered. 1 Peter 3:7

*TEXT REVIEW*: Ephesians 5:25-33
i. It is a golden instruction for husbands to love their wives.
ii. The love Jesus has for the Church is a perfect example for us.
iii. Love gives all, it is sacrificial.
iv. When love is present, the home is spotless.
v. Husbands are to love their wives as themselves because you are both one not two.
vi. It is a great mystery. It is deeper than you can imagine, just play your part.
