Discipline Of The Wife -
08-15-2010, 12:07 AM
Brothers in Christ,
This is what works for me in dealing with the wife in my Christian home. Feel free to share your methodologies and experience in the matter. Here’s my top 5:
1.) Explain the rules of the relationship, her conduct and her role in the home. God lays down His rules in the Bible and it’s only fair that we fully explain our rules to the woman. Do not leave any wiggle room for a “misunderstanding”. I find it helpful to keep a spreadsheet on my desktop and update as needed with the offense and the appropriate punishment. If she asks why we get to make the rules, resist the temptation to back hand her (for the time being) and open your KJV Bible:
1 Corinthians 11:3: "But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God."
If she does not fully agree with such clear and concise scripture, a backhand is in order. Repeat until she agrees with Jesus.
2.) Choose your methods for punishment in advance so she knows exactly what she stands to lose or the level of pain associated with each category of infraction. As an example, if she makes a snotty remark that the lawn needs mowing one week and gets a kick in the behind, and the next week you simply confiscate her crossword puzzle book for the same offense, you are sending mixed messages and failing in your duty to be as clear as God’s Word.
3.) Never argue or show weakness. As we know, the woman is as crafty as the serpent and will often resist her discipline with subtle comments that only slightly irritate you. If you allow this, it will escalate into a verbal confrontation and she may provoke you to the point that you lose all control. We do NOT want this to ever happen. Instead, the second the sassmouth starts back talking, administer the appropriate punishment and put an end to it. Remind her that Jesus didn’t mince words and you won’t either.
4.) Be fair. The punishment should fit the crime. Yes, overcooking the prime rib would, at first thought, call for a belt to the face, but control your tempers Brothers. We often need a quick prayer to get His advice. A more appropriate punishment in this case might be banning her use of the telephone for the next year. But don’t be too soft either. If she takes twenty dollars of your hard earned money with your ATM card to buy a new wardrobe, the belt should come off.
5.) Have compassion. If, after the discipline, she whimpers more than two days in her closet, let her out because she obviously isn’t reading the Bible anyway. Put her in her bed and start reading the Bible from Genesis 1 again to her. Emphasize that God made Adam first, Eve from Adam, the trickery of the woman, etc. She should soon see why she got herself in such a mess.
In Christ!
Matthew 19:14 "But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven."

Psalms 86:6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the hours of the Lord for ever.
This my truth, not that all women get wrangled by husbands, do they? This is uncharted territory to me for I am but an angelic virgin. My pre-arraigned marriage to my fathers second cuzin twice removed from the famdamily is set for the dead of winter. Dear Lord, what shall I do if my voice does not please Him and he tosses me into the purely driven snow? Could this discipline actually apply... to me?

The short answer is YES.
Now could you please make your way over to the introduction thread and follow the instruction given
2 Samuel 22:31
As for God, His way is perfect;
The word of the LORD is proven;
He is a shield to all who trust in Him.

Sister,
A verse that I am quite fond of, but irrelevant in this case.
Women do indeed get "wrangled" when they step out of line or open their pieholes before being told to speak.
You are already being uppity with all these sassy questions. Please introduce yourself here before I take my belt off...
In Christ.

Thank you for the information Rubicon. I look forward to the day when I will have a wife, but it is always good to know exactly what God wants of the husbands. Praise Jesus.
Genesis 4:12: When thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth yield unto thee her strength; a fugitive and a vagabond shalt thou be in the earth.
Numbers 35:19: The revenger of blood himself shall slay the murderer: when he meeteth him, he shall slay him.

I would consider myself an expert on marriage since I have been married 5 times, and I heartily agree with all of these suggestions that Brother Rubicon has posted. See, a woman is like a car: Check her out, take care of her, kick her every once in a while, and keep her locked in the garage. You're not a good car owner if you poorly maintain your vehicle and don't care what happens to it. As well, you would never considering taking your hands off the wheel and letting the car drive itself! Keep firm control over your car so you and the car can ride the highway to Heaven.

Re. Jim
Wise words and a very concise and accurate analogy
And may I add if a car gives you trouble, starts running dirty or becomes unreliable or defective it can be replaced by a newer and better one - Likewise a defective wife can be swiftly replaced with a better and possibly more compliant and Godly one
2 Samuel 22:31
As for God, His way is perfect;
The word of the LORD is proven;
He is a shield to all who trust in Him.

Wise words Brother Rubicon.
God blessed me with a wonderful 12 years with my wife Sarah. She died in childbirth seven months ago and I believed that God would never find me another wife. I was quite prepared to remain celibate and bring up my boys with the assistance of a paid nanny.
But God has lead me to Landover Baptists and I truly believe he has a plan for me that is different to my own.
Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

That's completely irrelevant. All that matters is how much we love God!
Freedom means voting for Donald Trump!
To most "Christians" The Bible is like a license agreement. They just scroll to the bottom and click "I agree". All those "Christians" will burn in Hell!

You say you love God huh??? What about the scripture that says to honor your wife and give yourself to her like Christ gave Himself to the church? I don't remember anywhere even in the KJV bible where Christ slapped or even condoned slapping a women, you sir need to reread the scriptures!
As for the fool who said he keeps a spreadsheet of things his wife does and the punishment allotted for each wrongdoing, ... did Jesus ever keep a spreadsheet of our sins and wrongdoings??? I think not, Jesus said I will remember their sins no more!
Do you think Jesus would slap His mother? No!!
You guys are definitely in a cult, I fear for your souls... Lord forgive them they know not what they do.

That's what's important.

Beating your wife does not show love. Hurting anyone actually is the opposite of love. And God teaches that husbands should love their wives and to put their wife's life before his own.
A woman is not a man's property.

You father would have beaten some sense in to you if he would have loved you.
I hope your husband will do this in the future as it is clear that you were raised without love.

I honestly hope and pray to God above that nothing as weak, pathetic, spineless and sickeningly inane as you is ever birthed from one of my wives. (long story not explaining it here)
The Spartans....they had the right idea about weeding out the sick, weak, stupid and unfit early.
In short--you.

Now. I'm recently engaged to the most beautiful woman on earth.
But this... This makes no sense to me whatsoever.
You would ban your wife from the telephone for a year for something that very well might have been out of her control??
And 20 dollars?? That wouldn't even buy her a... skirt? Let alone a new wardrobe.

I don't want to cause any arguements... I'm just curious as to why a man would punish his wife for something as trivial as that?
And should you punish your wife for thinking another man is handsome?
Just asking questions..
