As I said in Sunday’s 2nd service, I firmly believe that one reason why the church has lost its voice in the gender discussion in our culture is that we have compromised the gender roles in the church. We have failed to honor gender roles, protect gender roles, and deeply value one another.
repeating. One of the major issues with the truths of God’s word, like authority and submission, is that it has been misapplied so often that it’s hard to believe the truth. But what I said Sunday was that a truth that is misapplied, does not mean the truth is an error. It means the application is in error. We must be careful to not allow bad application to cause us to discredit biblical truth.
God has created our genders in such a way that they are to complement one another. And when each person is playing their role in their God-given gender, it honors and strengthens the other gender. It doesn’t take away from the other gender but enhances it.
Well…we safely made it through 1 Corinthians 14! There was no food fight in the cafeteria and we came out the other side with no one hanging from the rafters or doing cartwheels down the aisles! Seriously, it has been a very good time for our church as we studied 1 Corinthians 11-14.
YOU DON’T WANT TO MISS OUT ON THE FELLOWSHIP.
