In Genesis 3:16, we are told the consequences of sin that women would experience due to sin entering the world. One thing that would happen to them is that “…thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.” There is great disagreement about what this actually means. Even the commentaries of old disagree about the interpretation. I believe it means that the woman will desire to control her husband, just as in Genesis 4:7, we are…
This post was written by Scott Brown who is director of the National Center for Family-Integrated Churches and a pastor at Hope Baptist Church. Can anyone tell me why ALL pastors aren’t preaching this? The Bible says that when a woman refuses to be a keeper at home she causes the Word of God to be blasphemed. This means that she creates conditions that discredit the Word of God. It gives people reason to rail against God. Instead of glorifying…
Yesterday, I tweeted this: “The fatherless shooters among us: Of the 27 deadliest mass shooters, 26 were fatherless. It’s NOT gun issue. It’s a ‘lack of fathers’ issue. Despite popular opinion, children need their fathers just as much as they need their mothers.’ One woman asked for the source of this quote. I posted the article for her. Here is an eye-opening comment from the article: “Indeed, there is a direct correlation between boys who grow up with absent fathers…
How do we gain a merry heart? There are many positive and beneficial things about having a merry heart. “A merry heart does good like a medicine” (Proverbs 17:22). “A merry heart makes a cheerful countenance” (Proverbs 15:13). “[She] that is of a merry heart hath a continual feast” (Proverbs 15:15). From a merry heart comes a cheerful countenance and a continual feast. It is like good medicine without the negative side effects! It’s not faking being happy that makes…
The fruit of one’s ministry tells us if it is good or not. Almost every day, I receive private messages, emails, or comments on social media thanking me for my ministry. I don’t write these things to boast in me because without Christ and His Word, I am nothing and would have nothing of value to teach. It’s all because of Him, and I give Him all the glory. Here are a few of the messages I have received recently:…
“Hi Mrs. Alexander! I love the message you’re spreading! I’m a girl in college whose ultimate life goal is to become a godly wife, mother, and a keeper at home. What qualities do you suggest I look for in a husband to ensure a long and happy marriage? Thanks!” I taught my daughters to look for a man who loved the Lord deeply and was a hard worker. I asked the women in the chat room how they would respond…
Women were much safer when they lived under their father’s roof until marriage (IF they had a good father) and then under their husband’s roof when married (IF they had a good husband). Feminism has made women unsafe. They have fought for women to attend universities. Are women safe in the universities? “Sexual assault on college campuses is a common problem that often goes unreported. It includes any unwanted sexual activity, from unwanted touching to rape. Alcohol and drugs often…
The Bachelorette, Hannah, and the Purity Movement, Josh Harris, have made big news recently. Here are a few great quotes about both of these that I have found recently and wanted to share with you. “What do you expect when so many Christian churches have been preaching nothing but tolerance and love for so long, demanding nothing and offering false absolution in exchange for a few bucks in the plate? You can’t understand Christ if you don’t understand sin. Too…
“The issue of birth control cuts to the core of the diabolical disorientation of the family in the Western world. When your daughter, sister, wife, or girlfriend swallows that pill, not only does she ingest all the artificial hormones that increasingly are linked to breast cancer and strokes later in life, she ingests our society’s judgment of her worth… “Birth control is inherently harmful in that it disrupts something good and performing according to its nature: fertility in women…But, fundamentally,…
Recently, I wrote this on twitter: “Raise your daughters from an early age that their highest and best calling is to be a wife and a mother! They will hear the opposite from culture.” Of course, the reaction was fierce and highly condemning. K. B. Davies agreed with me and wrote a beautiful post in reaction to this. RAISE YOUR DAUGHTERS RIGHT: I absolutely love swimming against the apostate tide of this world and going against its ungodly opinions/culture (so…
