There are many false teachers these days. Many of these are women who claim to be Christians. They throw out Paul’s words since they hate the verses about wives submitting to their husbands in everything (Ephesians 5:24) and even being commanded to obey their husbands (1 Peter 3:6). Do they not know that God’s ways and His commands are for women’s good and their protection? These same verses were written by Paul: “Husbands, love your wives and be not bitter…
The following was on my first blog “Always Learning” from a post written about ten years ago: Hints from “Secrets of Fascinating Womanhood” for staying attractive to your husband. (The link to where I got this no longer works so I am not sure what book it’s from. If you know, let me know!) “Exercise at least one half hour a day, six days a week. “Eat a light dinner and no eating before bed. “Eat very few sweets and…
Written by Nancy Pearcey in her book “Love Thy Body“ From ancient times, the principle is that a culture that engages in abortion, infanticide, and sexual license is a culture that disrespects women. At first sight, modern societies may seem to contradict that principle. After all, Western culture accepts these practices yet women there have greater rights and opportunities than anywhere else in the world. Yes, but at a price. “Here is the bargain we professional women have been making,”…
This was written by my pastor. “So teach us to number our days, That we may present to You a heart of wisdom.” Psalm 90:12 This last month has been especially challenging as we have experienced the deaths of several members and family of members. As I have met with families, prepared funeral services, and been involved in officiating them, I have once again been reminded of some biblical truths that we don’t often think about in our daily lives….
In our over 41 years of marriage, we have never had boundaries. No, we didn’t have boundaries about privacy when using the restroom. We are considerate of each other. If one walks in on the other, it’s no big deal. We would never get angry about this. We didn’t have boundaries with our parents. They knew they were welcome in our home whenever they wanted to come over. My 91 year old dad stops by often and unannounced. We have…
There is a video that clearly shows the differences between males and females. I will briefly summarize the videos findings here. The average skeletal muscle of females is 46.2 lbs. The average skeletal muscle of males 72.7 lbs. Men have stronger bone structure, a slightly bigger heart, and far higher testosterone levels, ten times the amount. Zuby, a UK based rapper, broke the British women’s weightlifting records, and he’s not even a power weight lifter. Those who want to be…
Our pastor taught us that “The Bible is a better interpreter than any commentary. Scripture is truly the greatest interpreter of Scripture.” This is so true! Many are so good at twisting Scripture to say what they want it to say rather than examining the context of the passage and cross referencing it with other verses to find out the author’s intent and what the author actually meant. Let’s take a look at a verse and how many take it…
Written By Lindsay Harold When the topic of women staying home is brought up, the most common argument against it is that women today have to work in order to pay the bills. That’s often true or at least they believe it is. Yet many of those bills exist because they are working outside the home. For example, if the wife stays home, they don’t need daycare, a second car, her work clothes, gas money for her commute, eating out…
Written By Joel Webbon at Right Response Ministries Is Complementarianism biblically sufficient? NO!!! God is a Father, and we have no other choice but to live in the Father’s world. Therefore, we are all subject to the Father’s rules, whether we agree with them or not. God the Father has determined to work through fathers. He has appointed fathers in the home (husbands/fathers), fathers in the church (elders/pastors), and fathers in the state (civil magistrates). A woman’s responsibility is serve…
Jill Filipovic, who has 162,000 followers on Twitter, tweeted this recently: “More mothers at home makes for worse, more sexist men who see women as mommies and helpmeets. Men with stay-at-home wives are more sexist than men with working wives; they don’t assess women’s workplace contributions fairly; and they are less likely to hire and promote women. Stay-at-home mothers are psychologically and emotionally worse off than working mothers by just about every measure, from depression to anxiety to anger; they…
