Five Times Paul Commands Women to Be Silent in the Churches!

Five Times Paul Commands Women to Be Silent in the Churches!

Comments 36 comments

Does the Apostle Paul contradict himself concerning women speaking in the churches? “But every woman that prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head” (1 Corinthians 11:5). Is he telling women that they can pray and prophesy openly and individually in the churches? What about these verses just a few chapters later? “Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as…

Why Aren’t Women’s Ministries Teaching Biblical Womanhood?

Why Aren’t Women’s Ministries Teaching Biblical Womanhood?

Comments 39 comments

The first Women’s Bible Studies began in the mid-1800s with Katherine Bushnell, when women began watering down the language in the Bible for women. The way they bypassed the limited role of women in the churches was by focusing upon the verses about the equality of men and women, then pointing out those women in the Bible who had leadership roles (all from the OT: Deborah, Ruth, and Esther). They even wrote a Woman’s Bible in the late 1800s. Thus,…

Birth Control, Pornography, and Abortion are Intrinsically Linked

Birth Control, Pornography, and Abortion are Intrinsically Linked

Comments 54 comments

In a video called The Baby War: Defenders and Defectors, we are taught the history of birth control in America. Doctors in the 1800s warned against contraceptives and how detrimental they were to a woman’s health. They saw nothing good about them and even found them repulsive. “The evil result of the whole system of avoiding offspring in the married state are so palpable and so gross, that one can scarcely find language strong enough to denounce it suitably” (Dr….

God Never Promised a Convenient Marriage

God Never Promised a Convenient Marriage

On Saturday morning, I decided to go through the new comments on my old blog Always Learning and either approve or delete them. I seldom do this, but I found one written by Pat on the post titled “Should Husbands Ever Discipline Their Wives” (and no, it’s not about domestic discipline, as many know today). It was so good that it was worthy of a post of its own! “It’s amazing to me, after looking at all these old yet…

Inventors of Evil Things – A Contraceptive Mentality

Inventors of Evil Things – A Contraceptive Mentality

Comments 34 comments

Most of us have been raised with a contraceptive mentality, even those of us who have been raised in the church and in Christian homes. Right before marriage, we are asked what contraceptive we’re going to use, as if getting pregnant on the honeymoon would be a terrible thing. Then after we have two children, we’re expected to begin preventing any more children since this contraceptive mentality causes us to think of children as an inconvenience and disruption to our…

Women Making More Money Than Men Hurts Marriage

Women Making More Money Than Men Hurts Marriage

Comments 36 comments

God never intended for women to seek out and conquer men’s roles in cultures. God has different and perfect plans for women, and they aren’t the same as men’s. A transgender wrestler from Texas has won the girls’ state championship for wrestling two years in a row. Feminists claim they are equal to men in every single way, so they fought to be men. Now, some men are pretending to be women and proving that the feminists’ claim is simply…

Premarital Sex is SO Detrimental to Marriage

Premarital Sex is SO Detrimental to Marriage

Comments 37 comments

One man posted this question on his Facebook wall: “Should a wife have sex with her husband even when she is not in the mood?” I answered, “Yes, because a wife who loves the Lord and His ways certainly will, since she is not led by her moods or emotions but by the perfect Word of God.” A woman responded to me, “Lori Alexander, really? You do realize that a woman is a human being in her own right, and…

Studying the Word of God is something I love to do. Each time I read it, even with those passages that I have read many times, I learn something new. God’s Word is definitely a two-edged sword! The KJV uses the word “suffer” in this verse, which means to allow or permit: “But I suffer not a woman to teach, not to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence” (1 Timothy 2:12). Once in a while, I…

Husbands Create the Wives They Have?

Husbands Create the Wives They Have?

Comments 21 comments

A woman wrote, “If a husband ever says, ‘You’re not submitting!’ I would say, ‘Bad leadership!’ The husband always initiates! If he is loving her to death, I promise he will have a submissive wife. Husbands create the wife they have. If you’re mean and angry all the time, that’s what she will become. You’re the leader. If you speak tenderly and serve her, she will be your reward. Serving and honoring you.” Did she speak the truth? Where in…

Career Grandmothers Make Young Mothers’ Lives Harder

Career Grandmothers Make Young Mothers’ Lives Harder

Comments 53 comments

You are probably asking, “How in the world do career grandmothers make young mothers’ lives harder?” I will tell you. Many people will encourage older women that after their children are grown, they are free to do as they please. They can finally do something for themselves! They can go back to college, pursue careers, travel, or do whatever they want, but is this God’s will for them? In 1 Timothy 5:10, we are told what older widows (those over…
