    For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. (Ephesians 5:23)

    If Jesus is the head of the Church, Jesus is responsible for the many contradictions contained in the New Testament. He is also responsible for the many divisions in the Church. He is responsible for the many crimes committed by the Catholic and the Protestant Churches. .....So, if he is the head of the Church, he prevaricates every day.

    So, if you believe that Jesus is the head of the Church, what kind of head he is?????

    what kind of head is he? haha!!!!!

    the only answer is that he is a 'deadhead'.

    How could he be alive somewhere in the universe and allow the terrible things that have been done by people called by his name? His non-response can only mean that he too is dead.

    How much control is acceptable for a husband to impose on his wife?

    Could a husband prevent his wife from cheating on him?

    Could a husband prevent his wife from committing heinous crimes?

    I think putting the blame on Jesus for the wrong acts of those who claim to act in his name is misguided.

    Jesus is quoted in the Gospels as telling so called followers who said "Lord, lord didn't we do all these wonderful works in your name?" and he would say to them "get away from me you workers of wickedness!"

    Ok, then, I would divorce. Because if my wife commits those crimes I would leave her.

    If Jesus is currently the head of the Church, he is in fact responsible for its crimes. But if Jesus died as any man, and had no responsibility for what his apostles preached after that, so he was a simply man whose figure was used to expand a sect of liars.

    wt writers have the answer to that: There was no legitimate "church" before 1919, since the "church" is the body of the anointed, and there was barely a bare thread of them. Jesus, a head of one slim wife. BSW: does not the marriage of the "church" to Christ only happen after Armageddon?,

    I know in jewish customs a betrothed is already considered as good as married. Bible written only for the anoint.--

    Jesus is not the "Head" of the Church, it is Paul who Created Christianity, and whose teachings, flood the Christian Churches of today.

    Jesus and Paul Taught completely different Lessons.
