1st Peter 3:1-6, “Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives; While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear. Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel; But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price. For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands: Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement.”
Kindly, let me start by boldly saying that I hate feminism with a passion, but I do not hate feminist women. I love people. God knows that I do not hate any living soul. Satan is the great deceiver (Revelation 12:9), the accuser of the brethren (Revelation 12:10). So please understand that I love everybody. I tell people when I preach the Bible that if the shoe fits, wear it.
What is feminism? Although there are various definitions of feminism, I define it a flagrant disregard for the teaching in God's Word that men have a God-given right and duty to lead the marriage, home, church and society.
The secular world defines feminism as: “Belief in or advocacy of women's social, political, and economic rights, especially with regard to equality of the sexes; The movement organized around this belief.” That may sound noble and dandy to many people, but in reality it all boils down to rebellion against God. What saith the Scripture?
Genesis 3:16, “Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.”
Ephesians 5:22, “Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.”
Feminism is in direct opposition to the inspired Word of God. Ungodly liberal bias, feminist theology and the insanity of the Woke movement today have twisted, misinterpreted and corrupted the Holy Bible to fit their wicked agendas (Romans 1:25). Thankfully the truth is what it is and cannot be changed, although the wicked do try.
Feminism is destroying America! Isaiah 3:11-12, “Woe unto the wicked! it shall be ill with him: for the reward of his hands shall be given him. As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.” God made men and women different. I am old fashioned. That is, I believe that God made men to do jobs that require grit, masculinity and toughness. I don't think women should be police officers, judges, political leaders or fire station chiefs. Those are authority and leadership roles reserved for men! If you want to know why America is in such a horrible mess today, look no further than our feminist culture!
Just Call Me Old Fashioned
It is disgusting to see a female police chief leading a bunch of men under her authority. Case in point is CJ Davis, a female police chief under fire in Memphis, Tennessee as the crime rate has skyrocketed to record levels on her watch. Here's a sad true story about a female cop who savagely beat up the wrong suspect! She was rightfully fired and sued! I humbly believe that women are best at cooking, clothing and service type jobs. That is not an attack against women. God created women by nature to follow, not lead. When women lead a society wickedness always ensues! It is not a coincidence that abortion, homosexuality, fornication, adultery, bearing false witness, smut magazines and websites, greed, divorce and all manner of evil has exploded in America alongside the rise of feminism in our degenerate immoral culture.
I can almost see the many angry faces on any feminist reading my blog. Get mad at God, He intended for men to lead the marriage, home, church and society, not women. Sorry ladies, you are the weaker vessel according to the Bible. 1st Peter 3:7, “Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.” Please do not misunderstand my blog. Women are equally important to God. Without women society wouldn't exist! God has entrusted women with the greatest career of all as a mother!!!
Psalms 127:3, “Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.” Children are a gift from God almighty!!! By the way, life begins at conception, not at birth. I am so sick and tired of fools trying to justify the murder of a human baby by abortion. Also, it is a proven myth that sometimes a child needs to be aborted to save the mother's life. We have Caesarian Sections today, which eliminate the argument in favor of abortion. Abortion is evil, plain and simple. Exodus 20:13, “Thou shalt not kill.” Abortion is not self-defense, it is calculated murder. Abortion is not healthcare, it is cruelty to a human being.
Let me clarify something before I move on. I firmly believe that if a woman does a man's job, then she should receive a man's equal pay. I am all for equality when all is equal. But I have seen female construction workers holding a flag to direct traffic, while big burly men work the jackhammers. Those women ought not receive the same pay! Working a jackhammer is very hard work. I know this is a touchy topic and many people won't agree with me. One hundred years ago we were so much better off as a society. It wasn't perfect and never has been, but God's way (where men are in authority) is always the best way. Look at the horrible mess that we have in America today, when kids are deliberately being confused about their gender!!!
Anne Graham Loitz (Billy Graham's daughter) was interviewed on CBS's “The Early Show” on the Thursday morning after the September 11, 2002 terrorist attacks. She was asked by Jane Clayson: “How could God let something like this happen?” Here is her excellent answer:
I believe that God is deeply saddened by this, just as we are, but for years we've been telling God to get out of our schools, to get out of our government, and to get out of our lives. And being the gentleman that He is, I believe that He has calmly backed out. How can we expect God to give us His blessing and His protection if we demand that He leave us alone?
Let's see, I think it started when Madeline Murray O'Hare (she was murdered, her body was found recently) complained she didn't want any prayer in our schools, and we said, OK.
Then, someone said you better not read the Bible in school... the Bible that says thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not steal, and love your neighbor as yourself. And we said, OK.
Then, Dr. Benjamin Spock said we shouldn't spank our children when they misbehave because their little personalities would be warped and we might damage their self-esteem. (Dr. Spock's own grandson commit suicide. Dr. Spock's perverse teachings killed upwards of 50,000 babies). And we said, an expert should know what he's talking about, so we said OK.
Then, someone said teachers and principals better not discipline our children when they misbehave. And the school administrators said no faculty member in this school better touch a student when they misbehave because we don't want any bad publicity, and we surely don't want to be sued (There's a big difference between disciplining and touching, beating, smacking, humiliating, kicking, etc.) And we said, OK.
Then someone said, let's let our daughters have abortions if they want, and they won't even have to tell their parents. And we said, Okay.
Then some wise school-board member said, since boys will be boys and they're going to do it anyway, let's give our sons all the condoms they want, so they can have all the fun they desire, and we won't have to tell their parents they got them at school. And we said, OK.
Then some of our top elected officials said it doesn't matter what we do in private as long as we do our jobs. And agreeing with them, we said it doesn't matter to me what anyone, including the President, does in private as long as I have a job and the economy is good.
And then the entertainment industry said, let's make TV shows and movies that promote profanity, violence, and illicit sex. And let's record music that encourages rape, drugs, murder, suicide, and satanic themes. And we said it's just entertainment, it has no adverse effect, and nobody takes it seriously anyway, so go right ahead.
Now we're asking ourselves why our children have no conscience, why they don't know right from wrong, and why it doesn't bother them to kill strangers, their classmates, and themselves. Probably, if we think about it long and hard enough, we can figure it out. I think it has a great deal to do with “WE REAP WHAT WE SOW.” ~Anne Graham Loitz
Funny how simple it is for people to trash God and then wonder why the world is going to Hell. Funny how we believe what the newspapers say, but question what the Bible says.
We truly don't deserve God's blessings in the United States. I no longer can sing the song, “God Bless America.” I don't want God to bless a wicked nation that legalizes homosexual marriages, and legally allows such messed up people morally to adopt children (which is child abuse). I don't want God to bless a wicked nation where women take 99% of their clothes off wherever there is a pool or water to swim. I don't want God to bless a wicked nation that legalizes murdering children in the womb by abortion. I don't want God to bless a wicked nation that denies proper pain medications to suffering patients (people like me) with horrible chronic pain. My doctor in Florida is afraid of the government. She refuses to prescribe more than 40 mg of Oxycontin per day for my neck pain, which is ridiculous. I took 80 to 140 mg a day of prescription Oxycontin for 11 years when I lived on the island of Guam. The United States is a far cry from the alleged “free” country that the media shoves down our throats! We are becoming an authoritarian abusive police state!!! I'm at the point where I don't even want to go outside my door anymore unless I have to. Proverbs 28:28, “When the wicked rise, men hide themselves: but when they perish, the righteous increase.”
Feminism is ruining dating. Hey, but don't take my word for it. Here is CNN news reporting why 50% of single men are no longer dating. The risk of ending up falsely accused by a woman, being treated like garbage by her in a relationship, becoming the victim of divorce and then being crucified by the feminist biased court system is scaring men away from the dating scene. Men would rather stay home and play video games! I can't blame them. In the preceding video it reports that young men self delete at four times the rate of young women.
We're in trouble! It's not just the United States. France and Sweden are extremely feminist countries. Check out how insane Sweden has gone! When you are talking about equality that results in men not being able to lead their marriage and home, and men lead the church, and men lead society, it is feminist rebellion against God. I don't expect an ungodly person to understand. A godly women knows God's plan for her life, and she seeks a man as a husband to whom she can serve, submit and be his lifetime helpmeet. The idea that a wife ought to have her own career, and that she is not required in any way to serve her husband, is Satanic (1st Timothy 5:14-15).
Dear reader, if you are a married female who thinks that you have as much right to lead the home as your husband, you are thinking like a wicked feminist. If you divorced your husband, you are in the same boat as the feminists! God hates divorce (Jeremiah 3:20). If you think a church secretary has a right to open the pastor's mail, or open the mail when her pastor told her not to, you are definitely a feminist. I knew a preacher who decided to resign as the pastor of a Baptist church, because the church secretary refused to stop opening the mail after he told her to leave the mail alone. That evil woman will answer to God.
Women who disrespect men in general are feminists. Feminism is rebellion against God. God has ordained for men to lead and women to follow. If you have a problem with that, you are a feminist whether you admit to it or not. I have had Christian women get mad at me for calling them a feminist, but their sassy mouth and bad attitude proved my accusation. Our text passage commands Christian women to maintain a consistent meek and quiet spirit, to be shamefaced and sweet.
Proverbs chapter seven describes the harlot and how subtle she is, like a predator. Proverbs 7:10-12, “And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart. (She is loud and stubborn; her feet abide not in her house: Now is she without, now in the streets, and lieth in wait at every corner.)” The Bible calls her loud and stubborn. That is how feminists behave! They always have to run their mouths, putting men down. They are bar hoppers, not homebodies. These type of women often never marry (because feminism has brainwashed them to seek liberation from men). If they do manage to find a man to tie-the-knot, she usually destroys the marriage by filing for divorce (women file for divorce at twice the rate of men). Single women in their forties are the most miserable group according to Psychology Today. Feminism lied to them!!!
I assure you that I haven't bumped my head. Hey, I just found an article in Business Insider about a woman who went viral saying she considers it a Red Flag if men don't like the movie Barbie. Unreal! She won't date any man who dislikes Barbie? That is crazy. You'd think she'd be concerned about his moral character, family values, personal hygiene habits and if he possesses any chivalry. How about his work ethic? No, she wants a guy who likes the movie, Barbie!
I saw this article last year about an Asian woman who was attacked by a man in front of a fancy hotel in New York City. The hotel's windows and doors were all glass, so people could see inside and outside. The hotel's security guard saw the whole thing, but stayed inside the hotel and didn't help the woman. After the assailant left, the woman was very angry and filed a complaint against the hotel. This issue went viral and stirred quite a response. Women demand the same rights as men. They demand to have men's positions, jobs, pay, et cetera. They demand equality! But then those same women hypocritically whine and complain when men don't come running to their rescue when someone is kicking their butt in public. You cannot have it both ways ladies!
If feminists want to be left alone and be like men, then you cannot expect men to run help you when you want them to. Feminist women today get offended when a man holds a door open for them. They give you dirty looks. In the old days men walked on the street side of a sidewalk, in case a car splashed muddy water. That way the man got splashed instead of the woman. I did a big study on ethics and chivalry as a young man, because I wanted to be a gentleman. When a woman enters into an elevator, a man should remove his hate in respect. When a women comes to a dinner table, a man should stand up to show respect for the lady. You don't see such chivalry anymore, nor is it even taught, and that's sad and tragic I think.
Please understand that I am not bashing women, God forbid. I love you dear reader, even if you are a feminist. My goal is not to offend anybody, but to uphold the beauty of courtship and the sacred institution of marriage. We don't see a period of courtship before marriage anymore, which was commonplace in the old days of America. The waiting during courtship made getting married all that much better, which is what the song: "Wouldn't It Be Nice" by The Beach Boys is about.
Today everybody is horribly shacking up committing the shameful sin of fornication (they call it one's "Body Count," how many people you've slept with), women are getting pregnant out of wedlock and then having an abortion. Isn't that awful? Yes, it sure is! Feminists will tell you this rotten behavior is acceptable. They'll try to convince you how responsible, proper and good you are while committing such reckless behavior, but God calls you a dirty guilty sinner (Romans 3:10-23). Please RUN away from Satan's destructive feminist ideologies, fool's advice and feminist theology! Psalms 1:1, “Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.”
Dear reader, if I have rang your bell in this blog sermon, God loves you! There is forgiveness for the worst sinner through faith in Jesus Christ. 1st John 1:9-10, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.” Notice that before you even ask for forgiveness, while you are still confessing, God has already forgiven you. That shows us how much God desires to forgive everyone of our sins. We have a wonderful God who loves to forgive sin. Micah 7:18, “Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he retaineth not his anger for ever, because he delighteth in mercy.”
God bless you dear friend and thank you for reading my humble thoughts. There is nothing good about feminism. I am all for equal rights when it comes to pay and how we treat each other. But I am 100% against any form of equality that deprives men of their God-given right and proper place in the marriage, home, church and community to lead. Men should lead, women and children should follow men! And when women are foolishly elevated over men to lead our society, we are headed for serious trouble. Isaiah 3:11-12, “Woe unto the wicked! it shall be ill with him: for the reward of his hands shall be given him. As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.”
