Hopefully your father/husband will beat some sense in you.

My husband doesn't beat me.

Re: Hitting Women?

Sometimes it sounds a little like she didn't do anything. But I guess it's just cause I'm a feeble minded woman.

You seem to over-think things, Pumpkin. It's very unbecoming of a woman.

I'm not sure you understand. Nobody here is advocating hitting a woman who doesn't deserve it.

Ephesians 5: 25-30
25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; 26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, 27 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. 28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. 29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church: 30 For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.

Re: Hitting Women?

But it says to nourish and cherish it. And no blemish. Wouldn't wounds be blemishes?

No.

Proverbs 20:30 The blueness of a wound cleanseth away evil: so do stripes the inward parts of the belly.

Re: Hitting Women?

Of course we follow Ephesians 5: 25-30.

We do exactly to women as we would to our own bodies, we know how God tells us to handle evil and we will do as He requires.

Mark 9:43
And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:

Proverbs 10:13
In the lips of him that hath understanding wisdom is found: but a rod is for the back of him that is void of understanding.

Proverbs 20:30
The blueness of a wound cleanseth away evil: so do stripes the inward parts of the belly.

Proverbs 26:3
A whip for the horse, a bridle for the ass, and a rod for the fool's back.

And of course the combination of the following verses also shows us what Jesus expects from husbands.

1 Peter 3:1
Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives;

Luke 12:47-48
And that servant, which knew his lord's will, and prepared not himself, neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes.
But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more.

Next time you want to correct a True Christian™, consider reading the entire Bible instead of googling a verse that seems (when seen out of context) to fit your opinion. We are Christians, we follow the God in all His commandments, not just the ones that liberals agree with.
