Written by Richard Baxter (1615-1691) 1. Gluttony is a sin exceedingly contrary to the love of God–it is idolatry! What an odious, swinish, damning sin it is–for a man’s heart to be set upon his belly! 2. Gluttony is self-murder! Though it does not kill suddenly–it kills surely! 3. Gluttony is a deadly enemy to the mind, and to all the noble employments of reason. 4. Gluttony dulls the body as well as the mind. It makes men heavy, and…
It seems men aren’t allowed to have preferences in this feminist culture that offend women, as I found out quickly on my Men Prefer Debt-Free Virgin post. A man who goes by The Multibeast on Twitter wrote this: “Long hair, sundress, no tattoos, clean skin, carefree attitude, caring demeanor, ability to make things beautiful, nurturing, kind, values family, no ‘ax to grind’ = the most powerful thing on planet earth. Has ALL the chips. Can write her own ticket. Nothing…
A few days ago, I made a video titled The Submission of a Wife to Her Husband. Someone asked me about submitting to a husband who wants his wife and children to be vaccinated, but she doesn’t want this. I made a video about this the next day trying to answer her to the best of my ability. It wasn’t easy, since I am very much against vaccinations, but I fully support God’s Word and His will. I shared the…
Many years ago, I read Francine Rivers’ book “Redeeming Love” and I loved it! I read it years later and didn’t like it at all. I have grown in the wisdom and the knowledge of the Lord and now have far better discernment than when I was younger. I felt it was far too sexually provocative. The Bible is not. We are to dwell on the lovely and the good. We are not to be entertained by watching others simulating…
Many young women write to me and tell me that they no longer want the college and career route. They now want to be wives, mothers, and homemakers. Unfortunately, many of these women have parents who want them to finish college and get a career before marriage and child bearing. These parents have fallen for the feminist Kool-Aid and are pushing their daughters into the feminist agenda. It’s heartbreaking! One young man wrote this on my Instagram: “I was dating…
Should women attend seminary? I don’t believe so. Seminaries’ purpose is to teach men to be pastors. Women are forbidden from being pastors. This is what Master’s Seminary states as its purpose: “The Master’s Seminary trains men for pastoral ministry–to preach the Word of God, reach the world for Christ, and teach others to do the same.” I checked out the faculty. At the top, it read, “A United Faculty of Pastor-Theologians.” All of the faculty were men. Our church…
Years ago, Ken and I mentored young couples who wanted to marry. This was at a large church near us. The head of this pre-marital ministry once told us that he had been doing this for over 30 years. When he began, the vast majority of couples were not fornicating nor living together. Now, the vast majority are, even though they have all grown up in this church. What happened??? (This same church forbid me from teaching women to submit…
Many women disagreed with me on my post about Popular Female Influencers Divorcing. I knew they would. It’s not popular to ever question a woman who is divorcing her husband even when she has “biblical” reasons. I had my reasons for doing so. A woman in the chat room who was a young and popular blogger shared the following. She explains my reasons perfectly. “When women leave their posts (their calling as wife and mother) and pursue building something else…
Written By Pastor Joel Webbon, Right Response Ministries Let me to begin by saying this: “ALL of Scripture has relevant application for ALL of life.” That being said, allow me to flesh out that statement a bit: 1 Peter 3:1-6 and 1 Timothy 2:9-15 are two biblical texts that explicitly speak to women. So a woman could certainly exposit these texts and apply them accordingly. This, of course, assumes that the audience being taught does not have men present (“older…
Written by a very good friend of mine, Carol Hopson It’s that time of year again when we all are facing Christmas and all that we have to do during this busy season. Or maybe we’re consumed with fear, discouragement, loneliness, or anxiety because of all we hear in the news. It seems that we can quickly be pressed into the world’s mold without even realizing it. Romans 12:2 warns us, “Do not be conformed to this world, but be…
