My Favorite chapter in the BIBLE is Proverbs 31:10-31. The Proverbs states that a good wife is worth more than rubies and gold, that a good wife is never lazy, a good wife helps the needy, a good wife knows how to buy land, as well as, plant a vineyard, a good wife gets up before daylight to prepare breakfast for her family, a good wife’s husband is well-known and respected leader in the city and he is more respected because of her.
What is a "help meet" and where does that term come from? The term comes from the Bible in Genesis 2:18 which reads:
"And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an Help Meet for him." -Genesis 2:18
The Hebrew meaning of the phrase "help meet" in the Word of God is simply "one who helps." The Bible teaches that it is the wife's duty to HELP her husband. You may not agree with that, but it is God's plan. Many women have simply sold-out to the ungodly influences of the feminist movement and refuse to accept any such teaching.
"Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her hands." -Proverb 14:1
The wise wife builds her family, she has more power over her husband than the Bible. Remember that Adam chose to side with Eve rather than God. What kind of wife are you?
"Conversation" in 1st Peter 3:1 means "manner of life." The life you live is your manner of life. Sarah obeyed Abraham, even called him lord. This is greatly admirable for any woman. Sarah's use of the word "lord" was simply her way of saying, "Hey, your the boss Abraham!" Sarah was loyal.
"Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well..." -1st Peter 3:6
"For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands:" -1st Peter 3:5
Notice the Bible says, "their own husbands." A woman is under no obligation whatsoever to submit to ANY MAN except her husband. There is nothing in the Bible which teaches that a woman is to submit to her pastor or any other man besides her husband. Some foolish women have been brainwashed into believing that they were supposed to submit to their pastor more than their own husband, this is sinful. You obey your own husband, no one else! There are plenty of religious men out there who will take advantage of weak-minded women. You and your husband are ONE in God's eyes, don't ever forget that. Let your strength be your love and loyalty to your husband.
The bible repeatedly says that a woman's place is to submit to her husband
"Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord." -Ephesians 5:22
"Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord." -Colossians 3:18
