Women try to convince me that just because they work outside of the home, it doesn’t mean they aren’t keepers at home. I am not sure how you can be at home if you aren’t home! It’s a recent phenomenon to have so many women who are not homemakers anymore and many more who are out in the workforce. When God instructs women to be keepers at home and guide the home, it was to prevent them from running from…
There is a “Christian” woman blogger who had a post go viral recently. She’s a great writer so I went back to her beginning posts. Every post was filled with Bible verses and were about the LORD. She has many children but recently she divorced her husband. Now in her recent posts, she never mentions the name of the LORD nor quotes Scripture yet thousands of women are reading her words. Warren B. Smith wrote, “And it is, indeed, very…
She seeks wool and flax, and works willingly with her hands. Proverbs 31:13 “Not that it is the duty of kings and queens to use manual operations, but it is the duty of all persons, the greatest not excepted, to improve all their talents, and particularly their time, which is one of the noblest of them, to the service of that God to whom they must give an account, and to the good of that community to which they are…
Women have used this verse to try to convince me that women are not to wear pants. The woman shall not wear that which pertains to a man, neither shall a man put on a woman’s garment: for all that do so are an abomination to the LORD your God. Deuteronomy 22:5 The problem with this argument is that men didn’t wear pants in biblical times either; therefore, it doesn’t seem to apply specifically to pants. Men wore long, flowing…
Whenever I teach that women are called to be keepers at home, without fail I have women asking me how they are supposed to afford it. I wrote this on my Facebook page last week about this topic: When I teach that women are to be the ones to work hard at home and be keepers at home, I teach what God calls women to do; looking well to the ways of their household and not eating the bread of…
Most Americans have a problem with self-control. You can see it by their expanding waistlines and I can hear it from the comments from the women in the chat room. Food is abundant and inexpensive in our country and junk food that is filled with non-food is available for practically nothing. The Apostle Paul wrote about discipling the body. “Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye…
If we don’t like parts of the Bible, can we simply decide they aren’t agreeable to us and refuse to believe them? Jen Hatmaker believes she can, and she does. Here are a few of her quotes from a recent article: She was asked: “You took a stand last fall saying LGBT relationships can be holy, and it got your books banned from LifeWay stores. Why was that important to you?” Jen replied, “I just sort of have this dream…
We were discussing in the chat room the fact that Jinger Duggar is now wearing pants since she got married, and some women outside of the chat room are clearly excited about it. This sentiment bothered me since it made it seem as if she was in “bondage” in her parents’ home, but now she’s “free.” I have heard those who hate Christianity state the same sentiment, and as believers in Christ, we should support other believers in their convictions….
“Feminists have largely controlled the public image of women. Mothers at home, who are impediments to the feminist agenda, have been largely ignored. In their thrust for subsidized child care, equal rights, abortion rights, feminists have done violence to mothering with their constant proclamation that mothering is a ‘low status job’” (Dr. Brenda Hunter). Unfortunately, feminists have not only controlled the public image of secular women but Christian women as well. Many Christian women seem to be as unsubmissive to…
There are two posts I recently read that were powerful explanations about the trauma of divorce and ways to prevent it from happening in the first place. I want to share these two posts with you and some of the quotes that I found convicting and challenging. HARDNESS OF HEART IS THE ROOT OF ALL FAILED MARRIAGES. I have always believed this, especially since Jesus is the one who said it. Divorce wasn’t ordained by God and is never promoted…
