Biblical Submission Summary Biblical submission in marriage is a wife making a choice not to overtly resist her husband's will. That is not to say she cannot disagree with him or that she cannot express her opinion. Indeed, a wife who practices submission is by definition a woman with the strength of character.
Biblical Verses on Submission: James (ESV): "Submit yourselves therefore to God. Ephesians (ESV): "Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord." This verse highlights submission in the context of marriage.

Let's look at four dimensions of submission: divine, family, church and civil, as they are presented in the Bible. ing to James , we are to “submit to God” (as children, since He is our Father). This seems reasonable enough, since He is the ultimate authority.
Unlike surrender, which may involve yielding to circumstances beyond our control, submission is an action we can take in the face of our everyday choices. It requires the humility to listen, the bravery to obey, and an unwavering dedication to the biblical principles we value.
Obedience may be rendered willingly or unwillingly. Submission, on the other hand, while embodying much of what is true of obedience, is rather an attitude, for it involves (at least in Scripture) a spirit of readiness to follow the will of another. It is more passive, involving acquiescence in what another wishes.
Submission, a fundamental biblical concept, signifies a voluntary act of surrendering one's will, desires, and authority to a higher power or authority, often in the context of God's authority or human relationships.

What is Rebellion? Rebellion is disobedience to God and is likened to the spirit of divination. This is an important parallel because divination is what pagan cultures practice in hopes to communicate with spirits in search for answers. God warned Israel that those practices are forbidden since He is their source.
