๐๐ฆ๐ข๐ฅ๐ฒ
A home must be built on seven crucial pillars to be unshakable.
๐๐จ๐ฏ๐
Both husband and wife must love each other with a fervent love, like Christ’s love for the church. This love requires a deliberate decision and the absence of bitterness and malice.
๐๐๐ฅ๐-๐๐๐๐ซ๐ข๐๐ข๐๐
A self-sacrificing person prefers others over themselves. This is a demonstration of love within the family, where husbands and wives should not have secrets or spend money alone.
๐๐ข๐ ๐ก๐ญ๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ง๐๐ฌ๐ฌ
God expects both spouses to be righteous. Righteousness in the family is essential for a husband and wife to have confidence in each other.
๐๐จ๐ฆ๐ฉ๐ซ๐๐ก๐๐ง๐ฌ๐ข๐ฏ๐ ๐๐๐ซ๐
Husbands and wives should cherish and nourish each other and their children. Children also have a duty to care for their parents. The family’s income should be used to provide for every member’s needs.
๐๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ฉ๐๐ซ๐๐๐ฅ๐ ๐๐ง๐๐ง๐๐ฌ๐ฌ
The marriage covenant glues a husband and wife together, and they should be inseparable. No family challenge should ever lead to a consideration of divorce.
๐๐ฎ๐ญ๐ฎ๐๐ฅ ๐๐๐ฌ๐ฉ๐๐๐ญ
Respect must be mutual in the family. A wife is to reverence her husband, and a husband is to honour his wife as the “weaker vessel” and a co-heir of God’s grace.
๐๐ฎ๐๐ฆ๐ข๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ข๐จ๐ง
The sermon describes submission as a two-way process, where spouses submit to one another in the fear of God. Wives are to submit to their husbands, and husbands should also submit to their wives’ ideas and recommendations when guided by God.

๐ซ๐ฎ๐ข๐ญ๐๐ฎ๐ฅ๐ง๐๐ฌ๐ฌ
The wife is given to the husband to be a “help meet” for greater fruitfulness and fulfillment.
๐๐ฉ๐จ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐’๐ฌ ๐๐จ๐ฅ๐
The man had a mission and purpose before the woman was created to support him. A supportive wife seeks to please her husband and provides emotional support to keep him from temptations.
๐ ๐๐ข๐ฌ๐ ๐๐จ๐ฆ๐๐ง
A wise wife builds her home and is a supportive partner to her husband and household. Her husband’s heart safely trusts in her, and he is respected because of her qualities.

A glorious future for the family requires each member to possess a personal spiritual life.
๐๐๐ซ๐ฌ๐จ๐ง๐๐ฅ ๐๐๐ฅ๐ฏ๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง
Salvation is very important for every family member. The salvation of one family member is not enough for the rest.
๐๐ง๐๐ข๐ฏ๐ข๐๐ฎ๐๐ฅ ๐๐๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ง๐ญ๐๐๐ข๐ฅ๐ข๐ญ๐ฒ
Righteousness and salvation are not transferable from one family member to another. Each person will give an account of themselves to God.
๐๐จ๐ฅ๐ข๐ง๐๐ฌ๐ฌ
Each family member must be saved, sanctified, and filled with the Holy Spirit for a glorious future. It takes a pure heart to see God.
