Ephesians 5:25-27
Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ loved the Church, and gave himself for it,
That he might sanctify it, and cleanse it by the washing of water through the word,
That he might make it unto himself a glorious Church, not having spot or wrinkle, or any such thing: but that it should be holy and without blame.
Love in the family starts by knowing what Christ did for you and excepting His love, and then applying those same concepts in to your relationship with your wife (or husband, this works both ways)
Husbands if you desire a wonderful fantastic loving caring wife; than treat her with loving respect cherish her, put her needs before your own, be willing to die to self for Her. And wives if you desire a husband who will love and respect you then treat Him in the same way.
As Christians we are to love one another as Christ loves the church He gave of Himself to the point of hanging on the cross in our place willingly, to die to self to save us, so what are you willing to give of yourself for your wife (or husband)? For your brother?
