Why would God tell you what the woman should do?  I would expect him to tell the women what they should do, and the men what they should do.  So you should be hearing God tell you to love your wife as Jesus loves the church.  If you are hearing that the wife should obey the husband, and not hearing that the husband should love the wife as Jesus loved the church, maybe you are hearing Satan twist the scripture to mess up your life.

While it is true that the man is the head. Is not God's will more important than the husbands desires? A woman (like any other believer) must place God's commandments over the will of any other person, including her husbands.

1 Corinthians 7:3  Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband.
1 Corinthians 7:4  The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife.

Clearly, despite the mans leadership, it is not a one way thing. This also depends on the man loving his wife as Christ loves the church. If the man fails to live to his job, then as you said, there will be trouble.

while I realise this is slightly out of context here.. I think this verse is applicable:

Galatians 1:10  For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.

If a womans husband is leading her into sin, she must confront him, and should not simply obey. That would be foolish.

The bed of the married is undefiled .Who is judging what is sin ?Sin is rebellion to GOD .I do not believe there is sin in the bed of the married ?But all things are done in LOVE .If not in love and truth ?It is evil .DO all things as unto JESUS CHRIST .But if you count something sin ?It is sin to you .I know people fear living by FAITH .
Because people want to trust in what they see ?
can not see FAITh .The just MUST LIVE BY FAITH .This is a hard thing for a people who are taught from a baby ?To live by what we see .and easy to trick people ,who are bought up this way ?Faith is the unseen ?

I'm not really sure what you're getting at here.. what exactly do you mean by "she has no choice in the matter"? I didn't really understand your last post.

Well as you know,Christ is the head of the body ,We are the body .We have no choice ,but to follow the head !
In a marriage ?We are the head ,The wife has no choice but to follow the head .She ,deep in her heart .Wants to follow the man and SHE will .She can not help her self .We being the body of CHRIST .Deep in our heart ,desire to follow the LORD ,we must ,it is in our heart as it is in HER heart .Did I explain this clearly ?
WE are one in a marriage .I know looking at this in a fleshly eyes ?We see 2 .But this is just an example of ,how we see wrong ?
because this is wrong judgement .as is everything ,we look at though our flesh eyes .in the church ?We are also one .
