Back Before the Sixties

Back Before the Sixties

Before 1960, women couldn’t abort their babies lawfully, therefore, unborn babies were protected in their mothers’ wombs. The majority of women didn’t attend college before the sixties. Most of them were married at a young age, began having children since birth control wasn’t widely used nor available, and were full-time homemakers. Marriage was sacred back then. Most people married, and they married for life. Divorce was rare. Children were raised in two parent homes. The husbands worked hard to provide…

Are Christian Couples Who Choose Not to Have Children Sinning?

Is it sinful for married couples to choose not to have children? God commands we be fruitful and multiply. (Genesis 1:28; Genesis 9:1) The purpose of marriage is to produce godly offspring.

Finding Time for the Lord in the Busyness of Life

“Hello, I was wondering if you have done or will do an article on how women having jobs and their relationship with Jesus suffers, because they don’t have enough time for Him or having trouble hearing Him.

The Quiet of Our Own Homes

The Quiet of Our Own Homes

Charles J. Ellicot edited a commentary on the Bible in the 1870s. Here is what was written on 1 Timothy 2:12: “But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.—The whole purpose of these weighty admonitions of the great founder of the Gentile Churches relegates Christian women to their own legitimate sphere of action and influence—the quiet of their own homes. St. Paul caught well the spirit of his…

There were two cats in there who were still alive! They must…

For Women Who are Idealizing Marriage

For Women Who are Idealizing Marriage

A woman on YouTube with the handle @behindherfaith recently wrote this on her page: “LADIES IMAGINE THIS: you stop idealizing marriage and start acting like a 23-year-old with her whole life ahead of her. You get an education, you travel the world, and you stop assuming your life starts and ends with a husband.” It sounds like she’s simply reiterating the old, worn-out feminist agenda to me. When young women desire marriage, it’s a natural desire given by God. It’s…

Multiple Reasons for Not Sending Your Children to College

Multiple Reasons for Not Sending Your Children to College

In almost every single book in the New Testament, God warns us about false teachers. He commands that we mark and avoid them (Romans 16:17). Colleges and universities are full of false teachers. Most of them are anti-God and teach against His ways. They teach lies. They serve the father of lies (Satan), rather than the King of all kings. I only learn from those who teach and speak Truth, as God commands. Colleges these days teach Marxist Feminism. Why…
