This post was on the No Greater Joy website written by Michael Pearl and it was just one long paragraph so it was difficult to read. I decided to make a post out of it to make it easier for you all to read! It’s an important post. We must teach our children to remain separate from this wicked world. In our recent article on betrothal, I mentioned that many homeschooling parents insulate their children without, but fail to insulate…
There’s an article in The Gospel Coalition called It’s Time for a New Culture War Strategy by Kevin Deyoung. I am not a fan of TGC and do not recommend them since I see them compromising on a lot of issues, but I do like many things stated in this article. Here are a few excerpts that I completely agree with: “Here’s a culture war strategy conservative Christians should get behind: have more children and disciple them like crazy. Strongly…
“Why does his happiness matter more than mine? Why should I have to know what makes him happy and what his favorite foods are? I would love to make my husband happy but only if he’s willing to do the same for me. Both of our happiness should matter equally, but this article makes me feel like his happiness matters more than mine. Please, help me understand as to why this is.” (Aubrey) This was a recent comment left on…
Should pastors be preaching on current events? I think so. It’s good for Christians to know how to respond to evil happening around them. They need to be continually reminded of God’s Word and will for us. John MacArthur is a pastor who is doing this. Since the lockdown, we have been listening to him. This past week, he preached a sermon called How Should Christians Respond to the Riots? And like the previous week, it was an excellent sermon….
How do we keep our children from evil in this wicked land? We are told in God’s Word to “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour” (1 Peter 5:8). The devil wants nothing more than to devour your children, women. You must raise them up in the nurture and in the admonition of the Lord, as God commands, since there is NO greater joy than to have…
Mothers use the term “quality time” for two different reasons. Either it’s to justify them working outside of the home and another is to justify only having a few children. Neither of these reasons are biblical. Mothers are called to bear children and be keepers at home. We are told that happy is the man who has a quiver full! Ponder this. Before birth control, the term “quality time” was never used when thinking about how many children one would…
These were God’s instruction to His people after they had been carried away from Jerusalem into Babylon and were captives: “Build ye houses, and dwell in them; and plant gardens, and eat the fruit of them; Take ye wives, and beget sons and daughters; and take wives for your sons, and give your daughters to husbands, that they may bear sons and daughters; that ye may be increased there, and not diminished” (Jeremiah 29:5,6). We are captives in a strange…
This post are my notes from Pastor John MacArthur’s sermon this past weekend “Who’s to Blame for the Riots?“ God is the God of truth. Satan is a murderer and a liar. This whole world is in the lap of the evil one and is bent on killing and lying. So we’re in a time of chaos and lies. Isaiah 1 is about the desolation of people turning away from God. Isaiah 5:20 tells us that “Woe to those who…
Recently, I have been reading a book about Susannah Spurgeon called Susie: The Life and Legacy of Susannah Spurgeon by Ray Rhodes Jr. I am actually surprised that it was written by a man since while reading it, it seemed like it was written by a feminist! He definitely has feminist leanings. Susannah’s life was during Queen Victoria’s reign in the 1800s. She was raised in the Victorian era. The author points this out in a negative light because men…
This post is based on a podcast by Hard Man called “Against Complementarianism.” I listened to it and took notes so I will be writing some things that were taught in the podcast along with my own thoughts. The public schools and universities teach Marxist Feminism. They teach that authority is evil. They want to rid society of hierarchy. They believe these are “tools of suppression and must be destroyed.” This is why we are seeing a call by the…
