Pastor Munroe was speaking about spiritual cultivation first and foremost. Secular people rarely if ever understand that Christ followers are spiritually reborn when they repent and accept Christ as their Lord and Saviour. He was speaking to those who walk in the ways of the Holy Spirit, (the spiritually reborn) and refuse to heed the dictates of their sinful flesh - Galatians 5:16. A man who does so would never unleash abusive behaviour on anyone, and definitely not his wife, because they become one flesh when married, and thus abuses himself when he abuses his wife. In the Christian home, spiritual harmony precedes physical harmony. It is only in Christ and the Holy Spirit that this will ensue, and it against this background, context and understanding that Dr Munroe spoke.
