• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

It began even before the Fall. Eve wasn't told that she would earn her living by the sweat of her brow but that she would be subject to her husband. Adam was the representative man and His sin plunged us all into depravity. Eve's sin had no such consequences. Adam was responsible for Eve even in the Garden. She was taken from him not him from her.

Hi guys,

I'm looking for Scriptural references that say a man is to be the financial support of the family unit.

God bless you all,
In Christ, Ted

*[[Exo 21:10-11]] WEB* If he takes another wife to himself, he shall not diminish her food, her clothing, and her marital rights. If he doesn't do these three things for her, she may go free without paying any money.


This is the only scripture I know of that specifies which provisions a husband must make.

From my phone....
Rev 5:5
And one of the elders said to me, "Weep no more; behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has conquered, so that he can open the scroll and its seven seals."

Ted,

I'm just as interested in knowing why you are seeking an answer to this issue. Is this your presupposition and you are seeking biblical support?

In Christ, Oz
