How would God want husbands to treat their wives?
Shouldn’t husbands be the band that holds families together? Wouldn’t true religion train husbands to “love their wives as their own bodies?” Wouldn’t women wanting to please God treat their husbands with “deep respect ?” Knowing this is the will of God. And teach children to “be obedient to their parents.”
In addition, those entrusted with positions of authority must have exemplary morals? 1 Tim 3:1-10
If we are to look up to people with positions of authority and they don’t exhibit high morals such as political leaders or religious leaders what kind of a message is that sending to our children?
They insist that we say “One country under God.” On the money it says, “In God we trust.”
This does not apply to the rich and powerful? If they don’t mean it should they say it?
Or more importantly make everyone say it? Would that make you a hypocrite?

We can expect the highest moral standards we wish of anyone. We are apt to be disappointed, however, because the people of whom we expect these standards will eventually fail to live up to them.

The leaders of the indigenous peoples who inhabited this land before use had a certain moral code. The chiefs and warriors would not eat until every last widow and orphan was adequately fed. Fast forwards a couple centuries to our more "civilized" society, our chiefs feast away while demanding that the widows and orphans tighten their belts. "Sak vide pa kanpe" "An empty sack cannot stand up."

Those leaders are the ones that destroyed the whole family value thing to begin with. Do you think the divorce rate is 85% today just by pure chance?

seems logical as the husband and wife should treat each other with respect and work together for the family welfare while the leaders of the country should do the same as they treat their country's members as members of a family type organization

Exactly. Also, read Eph. 5:21-33; Eph.6:1-4; 1Tim. 3:1-16; 1Pet. 3:1-12.

Yes, but don't stop there, women and children should be held to high standards of conduct also.

Leaders should. husbands are a different story. Wives should learn to control their husband's urges, and they wouldn't stray
