I agree with Toni. Only men who have Christ in their hearts and are filled with the Holy Ghost can love their wives unconditionally. Thank God for his Word which challenges us to be there for our wives and families.

The only husband who can truly love the way Christ loved is he must possess Christ. He must be filled with the Holdy ghost, who will spread the love abroad in his heart. Women are wanting good men, but if they are not godly men, they will not have this love Paul speaks of.

Jesus Christ loved me so much that He gave Himself for me. That is love. Love gives !!!! Hate takes. If you will notice there are a lot of things that give the sun gives light The earth gives herb for food the tree gives food to eat. . God gave us all things richly to enjoy. His blood gives live. God is always love and live and living .

The kind of the Bible is saying in the sacrificial love, that is, the love Jesus has for us. The Bible says nobody can hate any part of his body. So, we men will ought to love our wives as Jesus love the church. Note that, marriage centred on three things Love man , Submission wife obedience children all these lead to dependable and reliable family.

Let's always practice what the Bible says, for they are the words of Jehovah God. Jehovah himself blessed marriage.

God's word is immeasureably perfect. Study it, hide it in you heart. Live it. You can't go wrong. Where we go wrong as humans is that we allow Satan to speak to us and we listen! We need to cast him down anytime he tries to put lies and deceit in our minds and heart. God is good all the time.
