TL if I have mistaken your comments for others, my apologies. I do not have the time to sift through 200+ comments on the matter. My reference was not at all to your relationship to Christ but rather the many comments that have made on this thread about the nature of Christ’s authority. The prevailing thought seems to be that the Lordship isn’t an authority but a oneness where authority isn’t necessary. Rather that Christ and the church are going to be one in a way where authority is not applicable. I disagree with this. Thus I view the interaction of Christ and the Church differently and think it applies to the marriage relationship in a different manner. I think Christ requires obedience from me. In fact that that is how we know we are His. I enjoy offering that sort of obedience to Christ. It was not an attempt to discredit you but rather to show that we are just coming at this from different places and as such probably aren’t going to agree on the applications. Which is fine.
