The Gospel Garment of Submission (Part 3)

The Gospel Garment of Submission (Part 3)

The Christian woman is to wear the gospel garment of submission. Such spiritual clothing will be despised by the world. But the cross is scandalous, foolish, and weak before the world as well (I Corinthians 1:18; 21-25). Let women learn to be fools for Christ’s sake. The problem is not the weakness of salvation, but the weakness of the sinner in seeing the beauty of the cross. In the same vein, the problem is not the weakness of submission. It takes a spiritually strong woman to submit to her husband. The problem is the weakness of the sinner in seeing the beauty of submission.
