This is brilliant!!!! Should have thousands of likes!!!!! We all need to hear this Thank you! Got question What is it when wife submits to wrong In blind obedience- fearful of his possibly divorcing her because she isn’t “SUBMISSIVE” But isn’t that rebellion against the LORD? -- ? Especially when it hurts affecting others adversley. (?) 10:37

This is a very sobering and convicting sermon, but a blessing to hear.

Ephesians 5:21 tells husband and wife to submit one to another as unto Christ. Vs 22 asks the wife to submit to her own husband as to the Lord. And verse 23 says husband to love his wife as Christ loves the church. So should wife submit only and not love and should husband love only and not submit. I pray we do not mix humanity with spirituality. May the Holy Spirit give us all understanding.

Respectfully, why would v.22 cancel out everything Paul says in (v.23-33) about role Distinctions in marriage and saying they refer to Christ (men) loving and the church (wife) submitting? v.22 is true, but it doesn’t cancel out the role distinctions that display the gospel in marriage. Blessings

I love the sermon but unconditional love is not a thing. the Greek word for that type of love is agape which means charitable love not unconditional. There is a condition for love hence Jesus stating that sexual immorality can be justified for getting a divorce (Matthew 5: 31-32). Adultery is the condition in which a marriage can dissolve. I'm not sure where this unconditional love interpretation came from because it is misleading. If your spouse tries to kill you or your children, then I think that would warrant a condition behind your love due to the evil and malice nature behind the intent. R.C. Sprouls agreed with the misnomer of "unconditional love" being incorrectly interpreted and I believe that pastors need to change their rhetoric with this interpretation of agape love.

1 Cor 13 understood correctly defines love, ending with “Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends” (v.7-8) what conditions would change that definition of love or make it void? Marriages can end, all marriages will eventually end, some will have biblical grounds for divorce. I don’t believe Pastor Olesky was speaking about there not being biblical grounds for separation from a spouse for a season, or in some cases, divorce, but only to not put conditions on love, which is a biblical concept. If we are to love an enemy, when would we not be called to love a spouse? Even in worst cases, where there’s separation or divorce, love should continue, although expressed much differently.

@@thecrosschurchpensacola Yes we are called to love both our spouse and enemies, however those types of love are different within the spectrum of love. The Christian commanded love is the baseline love for all Christians. But I do not love my "neighbor" as I love my wife because there is a deeper intimacy with spousal love. Thus, loving a sister in Christ is different then loving a wife in Christ- although that one individual [the wife] is a sister in Christ also. The love of enemies is the love that does not harbor hatred towards them nor seeks vengeance against them, which we are all called to walk in that love. Nevertheless, the intimate type of love that is displayed in marriage is under the condition of fidelity and/or an unbelieving spouse walking away; Hence divorce being a justifiable option. Therefore, the spousal type of love is conditional. If my spouse commits adultery resulting in divorce and remarriage; then the former spouse no longer abides in the marital love and the new spouse would abide in that type of love. The love found in marriage can demand certain things that are not always the case for the universal Christianly love i.e. time, resources, protection, intercourse, a lifetime vow, etc. Therefore, that level/type of love is under a covenantal condition.

@@thecrosschurchpensacola does “unconditional love “ submit to wrong ? I took counsel after a couple left my home. He attacked me, “ YOU HAVE TO GO TO CHURCH!!!” Repetitively for maybe an hour! I’ve been in wheelchair all alone two years unable to even stand, drive -no neighbors family church (details ommited for brevity) yet, not even knowing me- being my guest, he railed me til I had anxiety attack (my doctor said) I’ve never had one before It left me feeing suicidal and took me a week to get over. His wife (my friend sweetly softly said, no, hubby, you have it all wrong while she supported him. Which part is unconditional love? I would have preferred she had said to me, please excuse us, hubby, we have some girl things to attend to. And got me away from him Counsel said, that’s Abuse! If it happens again, turn in your w/c and get behind a locked door!
