“Eve was punished not only as a human being, but particularly as mother and wife – something that reveals a divine ordinance”(Herman Bavinck, The Christian Family, p. 12).
If a woman were to spend all day long praying and chanting, her style of life would not be as agreeable to God as if she were a wife who patiently performed her duties, feeding her children, caring for them, guiding them and doing all she could to teach and train them — Calvin
@hydromerchant@mralangentry I get that. But whatever she wants, equality in this instance isn’t fair. She’s an older woman and should be treated like a mother, even when in need of correction. It’s fair to criticize her, but restraint is manly here.
@tenaciousd1318@mralangentry I believe that Mrs. Boelke has gossiped,falsely accused me, slandered me, and blasphemed the Word of God. I believe she should be corrected. However, I do ask that she be shown the mercy, gentleness, and compassion owed to an erring sister and member of the weaker sex.
