Should the master of the house be questioned in wisdom of choice to be wrong?
Biblically speaking and in the perfect world, no. The wife and children would obey perfectly. Now, if the husband were perfect in wisdom then the wife and children have no need to fear.
However, since man's wisdom is imperfect, the results will also be imperfect and the family will pay the price, both wife and children.
This however does not negate the first rule: Perfect submission to the head of house. The wife has to submit to the husband in trust to the Lord because she is not obeying the husband but God. The perfect wife would dutifully submit to the husband at all times knowing full well that mistakes will come but God has made her woman and she is under man.
The children are under both and must submit to both.
Making this all work out means great pain for us mortals: for husband first, wife second and children last. This has gone on since creation.
The preacher making the comments above would have the world believe that a chauvinistic dictator determines the civil rights or privileges of a civilized society. The master (leader, manager, boss) should always make accommodations for a subordinate to challenge/question his/her decision. If from the tone of your question, this individual you speak of is arrogant and bossy, then you may not be able to challenge him. No person should have the absolute right to make autocratic decisions for others. This kind of behavior can be considered enslavement. Every creature should have the right to be treated with respect. Every person should have the inalienable right to constructively challenge the decisions or proposals of their leaders. Remember the Bronze Rule
Rule 1. The Boss (master of the House) is always right.
Rule 2. If you think the Boss is wrong, refer to rule number 1
How should you criticise others?
Should you criticise others .....not if you do not want them to criticise you. Criticism can be a soul destroying thing for both the person who thinks they are in a position to do so, (let he who is without sin cast the 1st stone and all that) and for the person being criticised. I always say be careful what you say.....
