Misogyny among women is quite common. I observe this first-hand. Some of the most misogynistic people out there are actually women. Needless to say, this is very harmful in women’s quest for respect and fair treatment. Even among professed Christians, some women have been conditioned to have disdain for and harshly critique women. Some have also been conditioned to feel less than men, so they have a problem not only with themselves as women, but...
How can you know the difference between a religious fraud or a true man of God? Honestly, it can be very tricky. Deception is rampant. That said, the man of God will consistently be producing primarily the fruit of the Spirit, such as love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness and temperance (Galatians 5: 22-23). • He should be humble, reliable. He will be repentant when necessary. Like anyone else, he will make mistakes....
Broken thinking, broken training, broken families, broken society…it seems to me that in the case of some people, the thought process is that marriage is dreaded. Playing the field is celebrated. Sometimes, couples claim to be committed to one another, but they do not want to get married. They choose instead to live together, as if they are married. This is unfortunate. Marriage seems too risky for many. Unfortunately, plenty people view marriage as scary,...
There is an epidemic of people who do not feel adequate, who feel unaffirmed, and are starving for recognition. This could be boys or girls, men or women. Some of these types of people become mentally and emotionally unhinged under these circumstances. People react in different ways as individuals. There also appears to be gender-based tendencies. I want women to take note, because often, women miss red flags. It makes it easier to miss alarms...
Crazy question, right? It is yet another idea that devalues women. I have heard some strange teachings. I touched on this topic before on my spiritual abuse post here and how God set me free with His healing truth here. There are lies that have been taught, and are being taught. What if some unfortunate girls or ladies believe this lie, like I used to? In this post, I am going to present the truth...
I don’t have enough room to list every single blessing I am grateful for. However, here is a short list: • I am thankful to be a daughter of God. • I am thankful for God’s word, His grace, love, mercy, forgiveness and goodness to all. • I am thankful to be alive and well. • I am thankful for all family and friends. • I am thankful for food, clothing, shelter, employment, and transportation....
I am going to talk about God’s purpose for authority. A lot of people are obsessed with power. Some have their own definition for it, and misuse it. Along with that comes various types of abuse. The problem is that people have gotten away from the true source of authentic power- God. Why do people have authority? Who do they get it from? What is the real purpose for power or authority? Self-importance? To control...
If you have not already read parts 1 and parts 2 of this mini-series, I recommend you read them first. 1 Corinthians 11: 7 has been used out of context. Some people likely just do not understand what it means, and others may have a more malicious reason for their “interpretation” of it. God knows. It is evident to me that some men are practically drowning in feelings of inadequacy. It seems they will do...
Corinthians 11: 7 – “For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man.” Some men were repeating this and making insinuations about it along the lines of women’s inferiority. In the previous post, I discussed how I had prayed about this verse and the entire passage. The Lord helped me to understand what it truly...
So men are glorious and have glory like God? They share in His awesomeness? And women don’t? Women are glorious, but only have glory like a mere man? I had to pray for clarification in understanding the Apostle Paul’s statement in 1st Corinthians 11: 7. “For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God, but the woman is the glory of the man.” •...
