Written By Michael Foster I got a bunch of requests to respond to the following list called “The Tenets of Christian Patriarchy.” I did but my brain hurts. This is a special type of stupid. Anyways, here you go… 1. Patriarchy means “father rule” and is rooted in the nature of God’s created order. It means that men are the head of the home, church, and society. We see this reflected in the federal headship of Adam, patriarchal nature of…
The radical feminists’ leaders were clear that they didn’t like men. Feminism’s entire purpose was to promote competition with men and even wants superiority over them. (Why do you think they are clamoring for a female president?) They falsely believe that women are better than men. Modern women now claim that they don’t need men. They are strong, independent, and free. I asked the women in the chat room to imagine a world without men and here is what they…
When I was raising my children, I didn’t know anyone who homeschooled but in junior high, I decided to homeschool my sons. I didn’t like what I was seeing going on in the public junior and senior high schools. We found a small, private, Christian school that we eventually sent all of our children to high school for one to four years. The Headmaster was a godly man who wanted Christ to be glorified in this school. When we attended…
We were on our way home the other day and a song by Francesca Battistelli came on the radio called “He Knows My Name.” We definitely balked at some of the words. “I’m not meant to just stay quiet. I’m meant to be a lion. I’ll roar beyond a song…” Granted, there are some great lyrics in this song but these lyrics are just not biblical. In fact, they are unbiblical. God commands women to have meek and quiet spirits…
A man named Simon wrote to me and asked me the following questions: “What are the long-term consequences of the modern woman regarding society?” We are already seeing the long-term consequences of the modern woman, and all that we see is destruction. Divorce has skyrocketed. Children are devastated. Women have their babies slaughtered in their wombs, which contributes to our culture of death. Children aren’t being raised by their mothers but by strangers instead in day care and in public…
“Hi Lori – this is my first time visiting your blog. It is very interesting. I am wondering what you think about women who choose to live chaste lives in service to God (e.g. nuns). According to the person you quoted above, the ability to have children is what makes women special. I wonder then, is the work of a nun of any value? Is she also special? Is she still considered a woman even though she doesn’t procreate? Thank…
Recently, a woman wrote the following comment on my Facebook page. I read it to my husband, Ken, and he immediately began telling me how I should respond. He had a lot to say so I asked him to make a blog post about it so he did. “Is there a reason you only have four children, transformed wife? If I’m correct based on what I’ve believed to have seen on your page, you only have four, right? If there…
John MacArthur went against the ungodly mandate that churches weren’t allowed to meet in California yet riots, protests, liquor stores, and abortion clinics were allowed. He spoke about this last Sunday. I listened to his sermon. It was excellent. I will share some of the points that stood out to me. He began his sermon by explaining unbelievers: dead in trespasses and sin, live in futility of mind, love darkness and hate the light, hostile to God, preaching of cross…
John MacArthur issued a statement about the government forbidding churches to meet: “Grace Community Church has always stood immovably on those biblical principles. As His people, we are subject to His will and commands as revealed in Scripture. Therefore, we cannot and will not acquiesce to a government-imposed moratorium on our weekly congregational worship or other regular corporate gatherings. Compliance would be disobedience to our Lord’s clear commands.” When almost everything was closed down, he agreed with the government mandate…
“You can’t grow a peaceful society by sowing seeds of destruction. Neither can you defeat the Hitlers of the world by becoming like them. That’s why Christianity will survive all the empires and dictators that line up against it. The followers of evil will ultimately reap the seed of hate and destruction they’ve sown. Our seed is love, truth, and goodness. These are things upon which the kingdom of God is built.” This comment is in a series I am…
