“So God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him male and female, He created them.” Genesis 1:27-28
“These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you get up. Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Write them on the door frames of your houses and on your gates.” Deuteronomy 6:6-9
“Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ. Wives submit to your husbands as to the Lord. 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, So also wives just as Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her to make her holy cleansing her by the washing with water through the word.” Ephesians 5:21-26
