Now where I would caution the Christian and the spiritual person is that they do not sacrifice their relationship with God. Worship崇拜侍奉 — adoring service is to revere, adore, love and surrender. Your spiritual walk and your relationship with God should enhance your relationship with your wife. Your wife is to be your earthly Goddess女神 — a woman treated as divine, your Queen, and your Mistress女主人 — a woman who leads a submissive partner. Love comes from God and the closer you walk with God, the more love you should have to bestow upon your wife. Humility also comes from God so the more humility you possess the more you should be able to humble yourself before your wife.

I get e-mails from Christians who lecture me that man should not worship崇拜侍奉 — adoring service a woman because man is not to worship崇拜侍奉 — adoring service the creation but rather the Creator. And that is true but a woman was put here to rule man with authority and the interaction between a woman and a man was created to be a spiritual interaction. The scripture about not worshipping the creation was talking about not worshipping birds or animals or golden calves or money or possessions or anything that is not spiritual. But women are spiritual and they are to be adored and worshipped by man. They are not to replace God but by worshipping your wife, you are also worshipping the female nature of God.
