“Wives, submit to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord” (Colossians 3:18, ESV). One could look at this verse from the Apostle Paul as being one of which is out-dated, one of which is no longer for our current day and age in twenty-first century America. Indeed, many have adopted that view, even in the Evangelical World. In scanning the recesses of the mind, and thinking of all the couples which are either currently known or have been known in the past (people of which are close to the speaker’s age—latter 30s), most do not practice this verse. Just to take a random guess, it seems it would be 80 percent or so. That is, maybe 8 out of 10 couples known don’t practice the concept of the wife submitting to the husband. That looks to be about right, as many of you can probably relate to for sure. The practice that is most common, let’s say 60 percent of couples from the personal experience, would be that of a relationship of co-equalness wherein the husband and the wife mutually submit to each other.
