The Bible says women are not to have authority over men in the church.
The Bible says women are not to have authority over their husband, and instead to submit.
How could anyone come to the conclusion that they should hold authority in civil government?
I think I've found a scenario that breaks down the fault lines among groups who think of themselves as conservative on gender issues in the church.
Imagine a pastor of a mid size Baptist church. His interest is in preaching & directing the organizational moves of the church. His time is spent largely preparing an exquisite exposition for Sunday and maybe one or two other teaching sessions in the week. The rest of the time is mostly admin & directing ministies.
He has a lady in his church who is interested in Biblical Counseling. She wants to help people, went and got a degree in it. He brings her on staff and sends any counseling in the church to her.
He sees this as a win. He can focus on preaching, directing the staff, and she can use her time counseling the church members. No "pastor" title comes with the position, say Director of Counseling or something like that.
The question: Is this scenario consistent with what Scripture says about the roles of men and women in the church?
I suspect how an individual answers reveals much more than labels like conservative/liberal, complementarian/egalitarian, etc.
A man must be willing to put his life in danger to protect those he loves.
This means he must be capable of violent defense and, if necessary, self-sacrifice, the greatest act of love.
God expects all people to obey His law. Yes, even the lost.
Mankind’s failure to obey God’s law is, first, why men stand condemned under the wrath of God and, second, the pretext for the need for Christ.
So when a Christian says something like “we can’t expect the lost to obey God’s law, they aren’t Christians, and sinners are going to sin,” you are not merely hearing nonsense. You are hearing a deep error about the purpose of the cross itself.
These libertarian Christians fancy themselves as loving sinners the way Christ did, when in fact they display contempt for their neighbors by failing to love them enough to warn them of the judgment to come.
More precisely, they believe themselves to be more loving than Christ.
Keller Center fellows enjoy dunking on “faith, family, freedom” evangelicals whom they view as simpletons.
But they have their own folk theology. It’s called androgyny. There’s no such thing as becoming a godly man or a godly woman. Just sexless meat sacks of “virtue.”
This week at the SBC, Ozark Mayor and long-time Registration Secretary Don Currence encouraged Southern Baptists to consider serving in public office
“I never in my life thought I would be doing public service, but God opened the door. I realize now we need Christians to be serving in public service…
"It's not easy, but the thing is, we need Christians to take the lead in our government, in our city, and be involved.”
