My wife has a better understanding of this topic
You know I think Adam thought the same thing about Eve. And we know what her demise was, she allowed the serpent to cast doubt…
Genesis 3:1 KJV Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
I can definitely say you and Adam have one thing in common, you both listen to the woman.
Genesis 3:12 KJV And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat.
In my opinion, in your case we could read v 12 this way… And Ruben said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of this doctrine, and I did eat. And now you are trying to teach it and from what I have read you have not gained one single convert, but you have definitely confused a lot of well studied brethren who are NOT confused Biblically.
Now I am not saying all women know nothing, my wife has been a huge blessing to me and she knows her place…
Proverbs 31:11 KJV The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil.
I also understand that she is the weaker vessel…
1 Peter 3:7 KJV Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.
We do know that the Scriptures are very clear…
1 Timothy 2:14 KJV And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.
Ultimately we as husbands are to lead, guide, and direct our homes, we have the power to…
Numbers 30:3-8 KJV If a woman also vow a vow unto the LORD, and bind herself by a bond, being in her father's house in her youth; (4) And her father hear her vow, and her bond wherewith she hath bound her soul, and her father shall hold his peace at her: then all her vows shall stand, and every bond wherewith she hath bound her soul shall stand. (5) But if her father disallow her in the day that he heareth; not any of her vows, or of her bonds wherewith she hath bound her soul, shall stand: and the LORD shall forgive her, because her father disallowed her. (6) And if she had at all an husband, when she vowed, or uttered ought out of her lips, wherewith she bound her soul; (7) And her husband heard it, and held his peace at her in the day that he heard it: then her vows shall stand, and her bonds wherewith she bound her soul shall stand. (8) But if her husband disallowed her on the day that he heard it; then he shall make her vow which she vowed, and that which she uttered with her lips, wherewith she bound her soul, of none effect: and the LORD shall forgive her.
Even though we have the power to do what the above passages says, we most definitely do NOT have the right to abuse that power, in my opinion.
Ephesians 5:23 KJV For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.
Ephesians 5:25 KJV Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
So you say your “wife has a better understanding of this topic”, well my advice to you then is to be like the Bereans…
Acts 17:11 KJV These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.
AND
2 Timothy 2:15 KJV Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
You say the Messiah isn’t white, and adamantly claim he is black because your black wife teaches you that. There is one thing I have learned in life and I know it is going to sound like I am accusing, but I am not, white racist groups claim He is white, black racist groups claim He is black, brown racist groups claim He is brown. There is one thing I definitely know about the Creator of Heaven and Earth, He created everything on Earth and He used a wide range of color, He created all of man kind and there is a wide range of color, me personally as a white man, I believe Him to be middle Eastern, whatever color that may be.
It is almost bed time, so I will have more comments to follow.
