Fighting for Equality is Never God’s Intention for Us
On a church sign in the front of the Knoxville Baptist Church reads a sign, “Remember, Satan was the first one to demand equal rights.” Satan wanted to be like God and this desire did nothing but wreak havoc on mankind. His goal is to kill, steal, and destroy. He wasn’t content with the role God created for him and wanted more. Fighting for equality with men is never God’s intention for us. There’s not one Bible verse that tells women to do this.
Look at Jesus Christ. “Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men” (Philippians 2:6, 7). He left His throne on high, became a man, was crucified by the men He created, and rose again thus conquering death so that all who believe on Him will live eternally with Him in paradise. He told us that the servant of all is the greatest of all. His desire for us is to raise godly offspring which takes a lot of sacrifice. It’s the least we can do for Him!
God’s perfect role for men is to be leaders, providers, and protectors. He made them bigger and stronger for a very good reason. God’s perfect role for women is to be nurturers, child bearers, and homekeepers. He wants them to have meek and quiet spirits that don’t demand their rights. He wants them to be content in His role for them.
Feminism is antithetical to God’s will for women. Did you know that before the 1920s, the average family size was six to nine children. Now, it is one to two children. Careers have become more important to women than children. Even Natural Family Planning wasn’t used until 1920 or so. Before then, couples got married and knew they would have children since sex usually results in having children. Are we supposed to decide how many children we are going to have? Is this from God or from Satan?
There are many horror stories of day care centers. Mothers are the ones who are called to raise their precious children. It is a full-time job to teach them the ways of the Lord, discipline and train them, and give them the love and affection that they require. The exceptions don’t negate the commands of God because God is our Creator and knows what is best for us and our children. No one can take the place of a mother in a child’s life. Children need and want their mothers.
In God’s economy, women were never supposed to fight for equality with men. They aren’t men. They are women with different and important roles from men. If you watch the Women’s March, it’s a mob of angry women. Demanding equal right makes women discontent, angry, and unfeminine – the opposite of what God calls women to be; for godliness with contentment is great gain.
Are you content with God’s perfect role for you? Yes, it’s hard bearing and raising children but hard doesn’t mean bad. Hard is God’s plan for us. It’s hard for men to be leaders, providers, and protectors but it is what God asks of them. When we understand who is behind the feminist plan and equal rights, as godly women, we will want nothing to do with it. We will relish God’s will for us and pursue it.
I know many of you are deep in debt because you went the college route and amassed a ton of debt which keeps you from God’s will for you. Others are divorced and must work to provide for their children. Some women are widowed and have no choice. Now you understand the importance of being the ones home raising your own children. You can clearly see the lies that feminism has promoted. It breaks your heart to leave your children in day care all day long. All of these don’t mean that you can’t strive to live according to God’s will.
Read The Tightwad Gazette and learn to live as frugally as you can. You don’t need all of the modern conveniences. Seek the Lord in prayer and ask Him to make a way for you to come home; for nothing is impossible with Him. Sometimes it takes a leap of faith; for we live by faith in God’s provision. Pray for protection over your children daily until you can come home. Trust God to take care of your precious treasures.
We all live with regrets. Don’t allow your regrets to control you life. Do your very best and leave the results with the Lord. God is in the business of transforming lives. Yes, His will is for women to marry, bear children, and guide the home (1 Timothy 5:14). Feminism has made women unattractive to most men. While you are waiting for God’s perfect will in your life, be in the Word daily. Renew you minds with God’s Truth.
Become the woman that God wants you to be. He wants you to be modest, cheerful, loving, kind, generous, and feminine. Grow your hair longer if you can and dress in a modest and feminine manner. Learn to smile more often, be kind and friendly, and practice not having to be right or in control. These will draw godly men to you. Marrying a hard-working, godly man will help you in your desire to come home full time. In the meantime, trust God with your life and your children.
Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
Proverbs 3:5-6

No. Men’s and women’s roles are different as men and women differ mentally, emotionally and physically and have different natures and aptitudes. The radical feminist agenda will never win over basic biology!
So true. I have found the hard way that everything the modern world preaches are lies. Thankfully despite the misinformation God has blessed me and I have chosen the path the world eschews. I’m sad that so many feminists and soyboys bully the world through marches and lawsuits to live destructive lives.
“No one puts Baby in a corner!” is the mantra of the feminist movement. They don’t understand (or care) why Jesus came to Earth and the profound counterintuitive way of life He has called us to live.
Lori, I wonder if you’d have something to say about this page here, in which the author discusses how the Proverbs 31 woman is different from the case of women working outside the home today?

This is one of an excellent series in which Bnonn Tennant argues that women ought not rule.
Wow! Thank you for sharing, Heidi. From my quick read of it, I loved it and will most likely be using it for a blog post. He/She (is this a man or woman who wrote it) brings up excellent points!
I’m glad you found the article helpful. The author is a man, an is an ex-atheist who makes Scripturally-sound, well-reasoned arguments.
Yes, he’s very good!
I believe people were ultimately happier when they knew their place. The feminist agenda has pulled people from their places and now we have men who refuse their roles as husband, Father, and provider and who want their wives to earn a living so they can have their toys. And we have women who slog away at jobs and are still expected (largely because they still feel that biological pull) to care for home and family.
A hard working man used to be able to come home and be cared for and sustained by his wife who keeps the home warm and welcoming. Now, both partners come home exhausted from work to a cold, empty house and all the chores ahead of them.
God made men and women equal. But he also made them different for different roles and with a different path to honouring him in our lives.
He calls on women to be modest, chaste and feminine keepers at home. To be supportive wives and to submit their womb to his gift of life.
Feminism rejects all of this and tries to make men and women the same. In doing so they go against and reject every feminine virtue and advocate a lifestyle which is directly contrary to God’s design.
Great article, as usual, I posted it on my news site.
And, I’m convinced, that we have destroyed our heritage with the women not fulfilling her role, the men abdicating theirs, and America having wiped out 200 million via abortion and contraception in the last 53 years. Now, China’s economy has just overtaken us. Since money is the sinews of war, soon, our military shall be surpassed too.

America is reaping what she has sown.
Oh so true Lori.
We should remember that Feminists never wanted “equality”. Feminists are women who aren’t strong enough or clever enough to build a family or attract a high-quality husband to provide them food and protection. Feminists were the women, in ancient days, who lingered on the periphery of the village, always in rags and starving, no husband or children to care for them in old age.
That’s not an analogy, it’s the literal, historic truth. Men were food providers, and women who were angry and full of ego could not attract men, and therefore would starve. The Bible isn’t just a holy book, it’s supremely practical. God’s word isn’t arbitrary: God’s word is perfectly practical and pragmatic too. He called upon women to get married, have children, and keep house because this is the best way to stay alive and prosper.
Feminists envy and resent the women who “are” strong enough to build a family.
Feminists want to drag those successful women down to their degraded level.
Feminism is, and always was, always, the angry losers trying to drag down the happy winners. They’ve carefully step by step expanded their ranks, lying to young girls and luring them into the same position of being losers. Step by step they’ve taken over the media and politics. Now they have every power…the power of the media, hundreds of millions of impressionable young girls as sheep going to the slaughter, the police, the courts, even trying to get the army…to attack and destroy successful, Godly women, their lifelong enemies.
Feminists say they are attacking men, but it’s not really true. They are really attacking other women.
What is so amazing of all, is how they’ve managed to hide this attack, even from the people who are the targets. Satan’s greatest triumph is making you think he doesn’t exist, even while he is stabbing you with a thousand knives.
Women, wake up. There is one thing that men cannot protect you from — Feminism. That you must fight yourself, or your daughters will be slaves. That’s my opinion anyway.
Become the woman that God wants you to be. He wants you to be modest, cheerful, loving, kind, generous, and feminine. Grow your hair longer if you can and dress in a modest and feminine manner. Learn to smile more often, be kind and friendly, and practice not having to be right or in control. These will draw godly men to you.
Not even ungodly men are looking for a disgruntled, domineering, whorish, frowner, with a butch haircut who tries to appear masculine. Actually, the stuff you mentioned will draw most all men of every kind to you. Especially if you have the wisdom to do it early during your fleeting years of youth, beauty, and fertility. No man prefers old leftovers. If they had to settle for that, they may feel somewhat defrauded of the many years of your youth and beauty they did not ever get to share and enjoy, as they may now be stuck taking care of you as you fall apart before their eyes. Don’t squander your best years chasing an education and a job and leave your future husband with only your worn out leftovers. If that is how you’re going to respect your future mate, spare him the disappointment, stay single and get cats. God does not intend for you to live a life of self seeking, nor will those years poured into yourself make you a better submissive helper or mate, its just more mileage on your odometer.
