How do we know the concept of biblical submission is true?

Answered in 1 source

The concept of biblical submission is affirmed throughout Scripture, showing that it aligns with God's design for marriage.

The biblical principle of submission is affirmed in multiple passages, including both the New Testament and the Old Testament. Ephesians 5:22-33 explains the relationship between husbands and wives in light of Christ's love for the church, underscoring that submission is an expression of respect and not based on value or worth. Moreover, the example of Sarah’s obedience to Abraham (1 Peter 3:5-6) illustrates that godly submission has roots in faith and trust in God's order, which serves to inspire and influence positively. The underlying truth is that this submission is reflective of Christ's relationship to the Church, showcasing divine order and beauty in unity and love.
