Southern Baptist Convention faces showdown on #MeToo movement, church’s treatment of women
“The resolution asks the convention to confess that throughout the church’s history, men have “wronged women, abused women, silenced women, objectified women by ungodly comments and ungodly acts, preyed on women, left women unprotected, failed to report injustices and evils committed against women to civil authorities established by God and failed to act out of the overflow of the image of Christ,” the report stated.”
Feminism- destroying one church after another- In the end, there will be a great turning away from the concepts of Godly Religion in an effort to appease people who don’t accept God’s word in it’s entirety and wish to mold religion into their own creation-
Actually, they are correct in that.
Godly men have not stepped up to the plate and stopped other men from abusing their wives.
Women are so often told they have to be in submission to their husbands and in the past, they have been instructed to go back into abusive situations, where they are getting beat, and *submit* to their husbands and pray for them.
Instead they should have called the man on the carpet and given HIM Scriptural instruction on how to treat his wife and while that does not mean kowtowing to her every whim, it certainly does include not abusing her physically, emotionally, sexually, or degrading her in public or private.
I know many men who are VERY controlling of their wives. One such situation I know of ended very tragically with him now being a widower.
I certainly cannot help it if Paul (and presumably God) wants the authority figures in the Church to be men.
