Should you always obey your Christian husband? ?

Question

What if your husband tells you to do one thing ( having to do with a one day event ) and your heart or God is telling you to do something else. Should you obey him or do what you feel God is telling you to do? I know that some would say that if your husband tells you, that is God, but what if what your husband tells you doesn't feel right in your spirit?

Answer 1

I prayed for a wife and God sent me to h**l for the last 24 years...help me out of my marriage.

Answer 2

Just because your husband is a Christian doesn't mean he aways tells you or asks you to do the right things. God gave you a brain so use it for what you think is right.

Answer 3

Have you been brainwashed into thinking that you have no free will?  Why don't you decide for yourself and do what you want.  You husband is not a deity nor is he a replacement deity.  You are equal partners in marriage.  Is this a joke question?  It's certainly creative for a troll.

Answer 4

You are accountable ONLY to God in this matter - not your husband.

You are NOT your husband's slave and it is NOT his part to order you around.

The bible says you should submit to your husband, ... BUT it also says your husband should serve you in the same way as he submits to God.

It tells him he should lay down his life for you!!! That is the opposite of being in a position to order you around  !!!!!

So if your husband tells you to do something and you think it's wrong, maybe talk to him about it. If he is not prepared to listen or understand your viewpoint, then in my opinion he is a control freak and is outside the will of God for his own life.

Answer 5

do what YOU want, you shouldn't have to obey anyone

Answer 6

I don't OBEY anyone but myself, sorry.  He is not your keeper, he is your husband.  Make sure he knows you are equals and more importanly, realize you are his equal as well.

Answer 7

It sounds like you know the answer.  Follow your heart and go to God.  Just because your husband claims he is a Christian, does not mean he is perfect.  If you have a good relationship talk to him or talk to your minister or priest and refer to the bible.  He may be trying to manipulate you, be careful.

Answer 8

God gave you a mind to use not to follow blindly where earthly people lead you.  If it feels wrong to you don't do it.

Answer 9

Marriage is supposed to be a partnership between two equal partners.

Answer 10

Yes.

My wife vowed before God and witnesses to obey me.

If she did not, this would be an abomination.

Many people are intolerant of others beliefs , closed mindedness tempered with arrogance.

I didn't ask for the obey , she requested it. I believe she has the right to do what she likes.

Many do not.

Answer 11

talk to your hubby about how you are feeling and pray a lot about this.

most of all communication with your husband is important.  try to listen to him and understand why he is asking this, why he needs it.  and tell him how the request is impacting you.  you have to do what is morally right, maybe you can work it out - create another option that will work for everyone.
