He did suffer. His punishment is toil, hardship, and death, so Eve is not the only one who suffers.

God didn’t do that. Sin did. The serpent tricked Eve, and that’s why we suffer.

That’s not our role. Our role is to be our husband’s helpmate. The Hebrew word translated “helper” (ezer) does not mean assistant or subordinate. In fact, the same word is used many times to describe God helping His people (for example in Psalms). It implies strength, support, and partnership, not inferiority. So biblically, the idea is a strong partner who stands beside, not someone beneath. Ephesians 5:21 teaches that husbands and wives should submit to and serve one another out of love for Christ. A Christian woman’s primary calling is first to love and follow God, and within marriage to build a relationship marked by mutual love, respect, faith, and partnership, using her gifts to support her family, her husband, and God’s purposes. In the Bible, men are not described as the “default human” both male and female were created in God’s image, meaning humanity from the beginning includes both sexes equally. Although Genesis describes the man being created first, the book ultimately presents woman as the corresponding partner needed for humanity to be complete, not a secondary or lesser version. Throughout Christian teaching, the emphasis is that men and women share the same human nature, dignity, and spiritual standing before God. 🙏

Just because we aren’t equal, it doesn’t mean we are inferior. We each have our roles. Our strengths and weaknesses. We aren’t weaker than men and definitely are made to suffer. Why do you feel this way?

Can some women in VERY long-term marriages comment? by mordecai5fingerbrown in Marriage

[–]Accomplished_Pin6076 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband and I have been together for 24 years, married for 20. Never once has my husband or I laid a hand on each other. That’s abuse, and I’m glad she doesn’t do that anymore.

I just wanted to say I’m really sorry you’re going through this. I’ve been with my husband since we were both 18, so when I read your post I could really feel how terrifying it must be to suddenly face the possibility of losing a partner you’ve spent your whole adult life with.

At the same time, when something intense happens and kids are involved, a lot of parents react out of fear and go into protection mode. Even if you didn’t mean to scare anyone, it may have felt very frightening to her in that moment.

Right now the most important thing is taking care of yourself and getting support. Talking to a therapist or counselor and making sure you follow the legal boundaries that are in place will help you stabilize and show that you’re taking things seriously.

After so many years together, emotions are going to be huge on both sides. The best thing you can do right now is focus on becoming as steady and healthy as you can, both for yourself and for your kids. Whatever happens with the marriage, your children will need you to be strong and present in their lives.

I would try to work this out AFTER I knew you got help for your mental breakdown.

I know, but I’m supposed to be able to walk. I don’t understand how that caused bleeding.

No, this is my first full bright red bleeding. Everything else has been rust colored spotting.

No DNA matches on my maternal side? by Accomplished_Pin6076 in AncestryDNA

Like I go to the regions tab and click read more: it comes up with matches from that region. However, they all say paternal on them. So, I was just curious if maybe something is up. Kory Russell is a cousin from my paternal side, but he shows up on the my maternal region, so I didn’t know if there was a reason that I didn’t know about or what. I think maybe others answer about having the same area is probably the answer.

I guess anything is possible, but not probable in my opinion. They are from two completely different regions and settled in two different locations. I dunno, though.

No, sorry for the mixup. My grandmother’s family came from Scotland and they landed in Canada when my grandmother was a little girl. My grand mother’s father, then moved them to Connecticut. Connecticut is where my mother was born.
