Submission Is Not Silence A Submissive Wife Should Never Accept Abuse

A Submissive Wife is not a doormat. Her God-given role is filled with dignity, strength, and grace, but it does not include tolerating abuse of any kind.

Submission does not mean silence in the face of cruelty. The Bible commands husbands to “love their wives as their own bodies” (Ephesians 5:28).

That love is gentle, sacrificial, and protective, not harmful. A godly man does not use headship as a weapon but as a calling to cherish and lead with care. A wife may walk in submission, but she is not voiceless or without worth. She is deeply valued and must be treated with honor. Submission thrives only in an environment of love.
