The problem I have with the comp position is not that the husband gets to be leader; it’s that he always is supposed to be leader and the wife is supposed to never take the lead. I simply see no support for this in the Scriptures. As for authority, I don’t care how kind or benevolent it is– I don’t care how few of those things Craig listed, the husband actually uses. It’s the fact that he is supposed to have the right to use them (even if in Christian charity he never does), that’s the problem– a “right” to rule that is according to the flesh and not the Spirit. This is of the world and not of Christ.
