We’re going to *continue* on the *book of Ephesians*.
So let’s just pick up where we left off last week.
*I.
**EPH 5:28*
*A.
Husband*, *you wash your body*, *you keep it clean*, *you buy things for yourself*.
*1.
Your wife is as much your flesh* *as you are*.
*a.
Jesus said* in (*Matthew 19:5*) “*For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh*?”
KJV
*i.
You became 1 flesh* *when you accepted each other in marriage*.
*ii.
Just as you became 1 spirit* *with the Lord* Jesus Christ *when you received Him* in salvation.
*b.
When Jesus loves you* *He loves Himself*.
*i.
When you love your wife*, *you love yourself*.
*2. **EPH 5:29-30*
*a.
Each of us is a member of the body of Christ*.
*i.
The head* is *also* *part of that body*.
*ii.
Most of the time*, *we look at Jesus* *and ourselves as being separate*, but we must *realize that we are 1*.
*iii.
*The *head* is *not severed* *from* the *body*.
*b.
The husband and wife* can* see that they are 2 separate individuals*, *but* *they have* *become 1 flesh*.
*i.
I am not the Lord* Jesus Christ, *but* we are *part of the same body*.
*ii.
The same way*, *the husband and wife are 2 separate people*, *but they are 1 flesh in marriage*.
*B.
**EPH 5:31*
*1.
Because they are 1*, *just as Christ and the church*, *shall a man leave his father and mother*, *and* shall be *joined unto his wife*, *and they two shall be one flesh*.
*a.
The Lord gave this instruction to Adam and Eve* way back *in* (*GEN 2:24*).
*i.
This is 1 of the* *1st* *instructions* that *God gave to Adam and Eve*.
*It came before* that *there were earthly father’s and mother’s*.
*ii.
This instruction even came before God’s warning* *of not eating from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil*.
*b. 1 reason why many marriage’s fail* *is that they have not received this instruction from the Word* of God.
*i.
This V doesn’t mean* that *you are to totally separate yourself* *from your parents* and *never see them*, *visit*, *or talk to them again*.
*ii.
But* *this does mean that* *the newlyweds are to leave the authority* *of their mother and father*.
*iii.
*The *# 3* *reason* *for divorce in America* is “*Interference with the in-laws*.”
*c.
When there is a problem in the marriage*, you need to *be very careful* *about running to mom and dad* *and* *telling them* about all the problems.
*i.
Some parents are very good* about this and them *only give advise*, *but* there are *others* that will *get right in the middle of the disagreement*, *which causes a division* *between* the *husband and wife*.
*2. **EPH 5:32*
*a.
When Paul says* that *this is a great mystery*, it *doesn’t mean* that it is *something that will never be understood*.
*i.
The relationship between* the *husband and wife* is *very similar* *to* the *relationship* that *the church has with the Lord* Jesus Christ.
*ii.
This mystery* has *never been understood throughout* the entire *OT* *until Paul’s teaching*.
*b.
The husband* *is to treat the wife like Christ treats the Church*.
*i.
What would things be like if Jesus treated the church life men treat their wives*?
*ii.
Or*, *what if we treated Jesus like the wives treat their husbands*?
*3. **EPH 5:33*
*a.
*The word “*Reverence*” here *means* “*Honor*, *respect*, and *Admire*.”
*i.
We are to* *Honor, Respect, and Admire* the Lord *Jesus* Christ, *the wives are to do the same to their own husband*.
*b.
Look at your husband and Imagine that you’re looking at Jesus*.
(*LOOK AT HIM IN FAITH*)
*i.
Of course*, *he’s not Jesus*, *but the honor and respect should still be there*.
*ii.
If you want your husband to change*, *you have to change*.
*4. *Look at *1PET 3:1*
*a.
*“*Subjection*” *again* means “*Submission*” *but* it *also* *refers to your* *Honor and respect that you give to your husband*.
*i.
Peter goes on to say* that *he will be won* (or *CHANGED*) *without your* *nagging or arguing* by the “*Conversation*,”
*ii.
