Daily Bible Thought > 1Cor.7:4 - Authority Over Own Body?

1Cor.7:4 The wife doesn't have authority over her own body, but the husband. Likewise also the husband doesn't have authority over his own body, but the wife.

How can Paul speak this, when everyone knows the head of the woman is the man, and the head of the man is the Christ, and the head of Christ Jesus is YHWH God? Well, simply put, we are not talking about headship, but rather sexual relationship between a man and his wife.

These two are one before Christ Jesus when it comes to their flesh, provided they are in God's headship arrangement, what does that mean? Well, when any of us step-out of God's headship arrangement, than where are we found? We find ourselves in the fleshly mind under Satan rulership, against God's love. Yes, flesh against the Spirit, killing the life of Christ Jesus spirit in us into directing us by his Fathers law of love.

Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I that live, but Christ living in me. That life which I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me.

Romans 8:4 that the ordinance of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

Husband and wives are to be one before God, but a man cannot take authority over a woman that does not want his headship despite what God says about his headship over her and God over both of them. She will suffer for her own rebellion, against God, not just the man, as she might imagine, costing both of them hardship, this is the price of being of the same flesh before God one in judgment, it cause tribulation for the one flesh, him, and her. But here Paul is reminding both of them when it comes to sex, it cannot be used as a power play, in that, one has more power over the other giving and withholding their affection due to the one body before God.

Romans 8:7 because the mind of the flesh is hostile towards God; for it is not subject to God's law, neither indeed can it be.

Here the power struggle ends, if both husband and wife are found in Christ Jesus under the law of love, in which they are one with Christ Jesus, in one spiritual body under the law of love, and so must they be in one flesh before God. Love does not work evil, nor is it motivated by self-interest. Tribulation in the flesh within marriage must be meant as one person before God, in order too do that as one flesh, both must be under subjection to the Christ headship in putting to death the lust of the flesh that the spirit might live in the one flesh, which would be the one person before God, the husband and wife. Hence, dividing the one flesh into individual will make them two person only destroying the one flesh driving it into works of the of law killing the law of love, removing them from Christ headship, placing it squarely under another!

Rom.13:8 Owe no one anything, except to love one another; for he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law.
