Hello! I am posting in this specific forum, because its a mans issue. I have been wanting to get married to a good Christian gal for quite some time now, and a few days ago my father informed me that a friend of his has a daughter he is looking to marry off to a nice young Christian man. I was very happy to hear such good news. Anyways the day after me and my father had that conversation my father told me that I was to meet this girl, and her father for dinner so that we could become acquainted, and discuss marriage details. To make a long story short the day after the dinner we were married at the church.
Her father told me that she was very obedient, and would obey my every command. Well I think her father may have been bearing false witness to me (Exodus 20:16), because now that we are married, and she has moved in with me she has been rather unruly.
Last night I was sitting on the sofa with my feet on the table reading some of my favorite passages from the Bible, and she walks into the room, and begins massaging my feet! I put down my Bible, and asked her what she was doing. She said "I'm giving you a foot massage honey.". Clearly I have married some sort of foot fetishist who has now defiled my feet. When I expressed anger at her for trying to engage me in her harlot foot activity she began yelling at me, and crying hysterically.
Disgusted, and overwhelmed by the situation I locked myself in the bathroom for an hour where I proceeded to scrub the sin off of my feet, and read inspiring Bible passages.
After cleaning the sin off my feet I exited the bathroom, and instead of receiving an apology from the wife she was in the bedroom selfishly crying herself to sleep.
I'm not quite sure how to handle this situation. I know that Proverbs says not to spare the rod, but as far as I know that only applies to children. Should I spank my wife? Should I beat my wife?
Should I read scripture to her?
This woman is out of control, and I'm not sure if it would be biblically correct to spank, or beat my wife.
So I ask the men of Landover... How do you keep your wives in line? What are the biblical limitations on how I can, or cannot discipline her?
Thank you in advance for your help. In the meantime I will be in my prayer closet asking God what I should do.
