Re: Recovery bible = corrupted word of God!
Ephesians 5:33
KJV text:
33. Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.
RV text:
33. Nevertheless you also, each one of you, in the same way love your own wife as yourself; and the wife should fear her husband.
Well, I guess since everything in LC is based on the concept of FEAR, they sure had to include it, when it comes to marriage. I would venture out on this one and say that if I go to one of our fancy shopping malls here, and just ask 10 random women if they see a slight difference between living in fear vs having reverence, I bet they would all say the same. Although there is a such thing as a “healthy fear”, as to “fearing God”, (which should only be attributed to Him alone), besides that, I know of no such thing that brings about anything of “Life” in a normal human relationship.
Just saying.
For those of you who think that they mean the same thing, it’s not.
Reverence-
1. a feeling or attitude of deep respect tinged with awe; veneration.
2. a feeling of profound awe and respect and often love.
3. the outward manifestation of this feeling:

5. to regard or treat with reverence; venerate:
Fear-

2. a distressing emotion aroused by impending danger, evil, pain, etc., whether the threat is real or imagined; the feeling or condition of being afraid.

5. to have a reverential awe
