How many people who enthusiastically embrace Fifty Shades of Grey also embrace the message in this verse?
Ephesians 5:22 (ESV)
Wives, submit to your own husbands,
as to the Lord.
Take note of the parallel message for husbands:
Ephesians 5:25
Husbands, love your wives,
as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her.
I’ll take the committed marital relationship that treasures the partner, putting the other person’s well-being ahead of your own. I’ll pass on the the consensual sexual relationship that demeans the partner, putting your pleasure ahead of the other person’s well-being.
I agree! Amen!
