Eve was deceived because she didn’t check with Adam before she took the fruit and ate. The Fall began with Eve, being deceived does not absolve her of her failure to fellowship with her husband. I’m simply pointing out that the Bible makes the same point that the author of the article is making. She was destroying her marriage because she was deceived about herself and her husband and was rejecting his input about the children (and likely other things). I’m not suggesting that Adam isn’t culpable, but if you ignore the fact that the Bible records that the Enemy was the craftiest of all the creatures and he started with the woman, then you will fall for his trap repeatedly. Not to put too fine a point on it but I am merely restating 1 Timothy 2:10-15.
I agree.. This is what works for us.
That’s the same kind of nonsense my wife would say to me as I took back control of our family, now she’s out on her ass, divorced.
Perhaps she was trying to say that the gifts God has given her husband are what he can share with her if she appreciates him and his attibutes.
I’m sure she’ll survive somehow.
