Yeap only one can have ultimate final say in a home for the good of the family and it is mans position to be such as GOD ordained it to be. My wife always has full input in decisions and I do listen to her as I can be wrong and forgetful. But I am also the one spiritually and morally responsible for decisions made which have to do with the welfare of the family spiritual or otherwise. I think it often leaves her quite relieved emotionally that it is that way :>}

On the other hand a woman who is GOD Fearing and Righteous as much as our earthly existence allows us may have to step in when the man refuses to fulfill his obligations as head of house and spiritual leader of family and become as such a tyrant. Usually such having to do such the family suffers because of the mans lack of responsibility.

You will not get far saying that to the liberals, or many churches.

Exceptions are a given Abigail saved her household from "Nabal is his name, folly is his game" by her actions, telling servants what to do, but i am confident that as David's wife she was not the head, nor slothful, nor was she chattel, but was led by David and cherished, while diligent in maintaining the household. And the Prov. 28 women had a range of endeavors in so doing, in her supporting role. And by which the family and nation benefits.

Yet women pastors are not Biblical, and the women should normally give deference to the man who is sppsd to lead and call the signals, loving his wife as Christ the church, though spiritually genders are equal.
