As a husband we should never protect ourselves at our wives expense. We must learn to be truthful and honest men of integrity. Sometimes lying may seem easier in the moment but it never pays off in the long run. Abram learned this lesson when in fear of the wrath of the King he lied and said his wife was his sister so that he could save his own skin. “And Abraham said of Sarah his wife, She is my sister: and Abimelech king of Gerar sent, and took Sarah.”
Genesis 20:2 KJV
The outcome of this decision could have meant Abimelech could have committed adultery with Sarah. Question have you ever covered your own behind by using your wife as a shield. If so its time to man up.
