It may be a sin but it's not as bad as the other sexual sins, because it comes with a means of reparations: a shotgun wedding and 50 shekels of silver.

The Bible doesn't say a woman should respect her husband, it says she should fear him. The same way it says we should fear God and fear the government. Translations in English have watered that down because they don't want to offend the ladies, I guess. I'm still waiting for the translation that commands men to "like their wives as Christ liked the Church."

Men gave them all these "rights" and men can take them away. For the good of men, children, and women, it's time to Resubject women to law, order, responsibility, accountability, traditional values and traditional feminine behavior. Men of the West rise up and seize the means of reproduction!

Or take the moral position on infant right to life. A lot of women on the "right to abort" side will stridently decry pro-life men as misogynists for taking that position. If that's how they use the word in popular speech, then that's essentially what the word means. But it's not hatred of women that makes men take that position, it's love of God, love for little babies, love of life, etc. In that case I'm proud to be labeled a misogynist because it means I'm standing for what's right in spite o…

I don't accept this definition. It's true that's the literal etymology of the word but it's not what it means in context when people actually use it. What a lot of people call misogyny is really just men setting boundaries and pursuing their own goals unburdened by other people's expectations.

Divorce and custody laws favor women because politicians cater to women because women make up the majority of the electorate. It's men's fault because men gave women the vote. Solution: Men need to take the vote away from women and fix the laws. Resubject women to law, order, and proper duty.

We all need to work together to Resubject men and women alike to traditional time honored safeguards like chastity, marriage, severely restricted and disincentivized divorce, duty to spouse, holding everyone accountable for their actions, appropriately differentiated rights and responsibilities stemming from biological sex, familial and community obligation, and self-sacrifoce.

I think there is a difference between subjection and subjugation. In this case, I'm talking about making women subject again to law, order, the rational constraints of reality, and the restraint necessary to continue a civilization instead of descending into complete dissolution of society. For example, an EU court just ruled that women have no obligation in marriage to have sex with their husband. What then is marriage for? Men don't get married without the expectation of sex.

Men can collectively choose to Resubject women to male authority and require them to knock off the nonsense. Traditional sexual and marriage norms were enforced by men. Things like no adultery, no divorce by women, fathers keeping their daughters locked up and pure until their marriage, no vote for women, etc. Men in the West gave away their authority or stood by and let it be given away. If things get bad enough, men can take it back.

Feminism is the shark. Its claims of oppression have been false since the first wave, too. Men loved, protected, and provided for their women. They also foolishly, naively handed the vote over to women of their own accord. So oppressive. Time to commence the Resubjection.

We've had "equality" on the rise since the 1920s and things have only gotten worse. "Equality" can't solve anything because it doesn't and can't exist. Women aren't always good either, and we live in a system where the majority of the electorate is women, leading our society to crumble due to corruption. Societies had solutions to widowed mothers before. Go back to their father's house. Be cared for by their uncles. Or their brothers. Or in the Christian scripture, "Religion that God our Father …

You can't have equality because men and women aren't equal. They're different. Different things aren't equal. A square and a circle aren't equal. An apple and an orange aren't equal. A man and a woman aren't equal. They may both be needed, but they're not the same, and they're not equal. Hierarchy is embedded in the structure of the universe, and in the structure of society.

Agree to disagree. There are definitely fathers who treat their daughter like a princess and expect any man to treat her like a princess too. She's not under authority, she is the authority. Other fathers expect their daughter to follow his rules and pull her weight and be responsible and accountable in her father's house. They train those daughters to act the same way when they get married. If everyone is equal, women don't want any of those men. Since they want a man who is greater than them, …

Women need to be subject to their fathers and later to their husbands. Numbers 30. 1 Corinthians 14:34. But in our society women have been living in a wild bacchenalia for the last 60 years. If men are going to be responsible for women (protect and provide) they need to have authority over women too (preside). Otherwise it's a recipe for the disaster we're currently living in. It's time for the great Resubjection of women. Men of the West unite!

There's a lot of "expected" in there, but expected by whom? I don't expect women to have babies in their 30s, they should do it in their 20s when it's biologically most probable and safest. I also don't expect them to advance careets at the same rate as a man and neither do any men for the most part. Men literally don't care about women having a career. It's anti-adaptive for a marriage and kids.

Well, I don't endorse the extramarital sex or the old boys network of protectionism. But I'm ok with teen marriage if the father or a judge approve. A loving father or wise judge should be able to see whether a maiden is especially precocious and mature and ready for marriage or not. That was one of the protective functions of patriarchy. Also, society would be a lot better off if more young ladies still went to finishing school instead of only fans.

Lol. If a woman screams and rages at her husband or boyfriend, nothing will happen to her. If a man does the same thing, the police may very well haul him off to jail.

Now you're switching terms which is bad argumentation. "Poly" is not equal to "polygyny". "Poly" is maybe orgies and stuff which Romans & Greeks probably did do in their temple prostitution etc. "Polygyny" is a man having multiple wives with whom he forms a perpetual relationship as their husband.

You can't get around the fact that God chose an analogy of *two sisters* married to himself. Since he is holy and commits no wrong, he would not make an analogy of himself doing a sinful act. Thus, polygyny is not sinful. You can't get away with saying, "Judah and Israel are the same country" because at that point in time, they were two separate countries. At any rate, there was nothing forcing God to inspire his prophet to use that metaphor at all. But in so doing, he shows that polygyny is not…

Or they can just read the Bible for what it says and not import Greco-Roman mores into them. Augustine, much closer to the NT period than we are, recorded that Scripture never called polygyny a sin, but that Roman culture, custom, and law had made it become considered as a sin in Christianity. It's also why a good number of the Sola Scriptura reformers accepted that polygyny was never outlawed by Scripture. They were willing to put aside church tradition and take God's Word on its own merits.

It's not nonsense. God sovereignly arranged Jacob's four wives and the great nation that came from them. Just like He arranged the multiplication of his flocks. He came to Laban's house with only a staff in his hand. He left with flocks and wives and a multitude of sons. He thanks God for it and God does not rebuke him. Genesis 32:9-12. In fact it is at that point that God comes in a theophony and names him Israel.

God never told anyone not to marry multiple women. He never rebukes or corrects anyone for marrying multiple women per se.

That's a common argument against polygyny. But you have to consider: how many instances of happy marriages and family life do you find in the Bible at all? And was unhappiness in polygynous families primarily the result of some inherent problem in polygyny, or is it in other sin issues like jealousy, unkindness, favoritism, etc. Also consider how many stories there are in the Bible where there are multiple children which ends up causing a problem.

There's a time-tested solution to the problem of women not liking to be approached directly by men. Incidentally, it also solves the current ho epidemic. It's called the Patriarchy. Fathers, lock up your daughters. Don't let them out of your sight. Men, you want a wife? Go talk to the Dad. (Or get your parents to do so.) Arrange a marriage. Decide on dowry or brideprice. (Or skip it.) Decide on a marriage contract (prenup). Father gives the daughter away at the wedding. Girl doesn't have to have…

Kind of how Peter and Jude were addressing their believing audiences with the warnings about the fallen angels, the ancient world, and Sodom and Gomorrah. You had to know those stories and what they meant for that to have any im…

I think I understand and agree with your point: It's good to disciple those you lead to Christ. But I think calling the churches "spiritual orphanages" is a little bit ridiculous. Actually it's backwards to think of the Church as a collection of orphans. We're adopted as sons! And we're being built into God's household! First of all, these converts are not abandoned by their heavenly father. Second, God give roles to different people within the body of Christ. Ephesians 4:11-12: So Christ himsel…

I think your arguments about perception in culture, and about social unrest, could have some validity as challenges to polygamy. On the other hand, maybe they are challenges that could be overcome. But those are both religious or ethical arguments as well (perception of the gospel, fairness to other men). I think it's amusing that you write the "bible doesn't outright prohibit it" (polygamy), because the Bible doesn't prohibit it at all! So let's not set aside purely religious reasoning. Polygam…

Having a second child was illegal in China, ergo sinful. ??? But God tells us to be fruitful and multiply. China's law can't overrule God's law. Many countries have also made taking a second wife illegal. But God never condemned taking a second wife. There is no reproach in Scripture for taking a second wife. But as the Spirit foretold through his holy apostle Paul: 1 Timothy 4:1 Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by devoting themselves to deceitful…

The usual rebuttals to your interpretation of these verses are: ​ Deuteronomy 17:17 - Neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his heart turn not away: neither shall he greatly multiply to himself silver and gold. If you say a king can only have one wife because of this verse, then does that mean he can only have one piece of gold and one piece of silver? Even common men in the time of the biblical kings had more than one wife, so surely the king could at least be on par with them? This …

Have you guys heard of the idea of the "seed war"? In Genesis 3:15, when God hands out his judgment to Adam, Eve, and the serpent, he tells the serpent: "I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring; he shall bruise your head, and you shall bruise his heel." A series of crises happen on the side of the human lineage, and a series of attacks happen from the side of the serpent's lineage: Cain kills Abel (God warned Cain: sin is lurking at your door and…

Well, I didn't get here soon enough to see the exciting links that were posted. But at the risk of being a rabble rouser and having my comment deleted... Here are some of the articles or treatises that I have read, which I believe demonstrate that polygamy was and remains a valid family structure, where one man is married to multiple women. https://bible.org/article/morality-biblical-polygyny http://christianworldviewpress.com/christian-polygamy-part-1/ http://christianworldviewpress.com/christi…

OK in general I thought this was a great post, the Parable of the Cat. But I call shenanigans on the use of these Bible verses: In the bible we can actually see this happening with Jesus and his female followers. Check it out. Mark 15:40-41 "There were also women looking on from a distance, among whom were Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the younger and of Joses, and Salome. When he was in Galilee, they followed him and ministered to him, and there were also many other women who cam…

It's possible I didn't do a clear job of explaining his thesis. I don't think gobbledygook is the correct term. Perhaps "biblical theology" would be more appropriate. According to the Wikipedia entry on biblical theology, important themes included: "1) The Bible as a theological resource; 2) The unity of the Bible; 3) The revelation of God in history; 4) The Bible’s distinctly Hebraic mentality; and 5) The uniqueness of biblical revelation." You can't say it is a blanket condemnation on divorce …

So I'll give a perspective on divorce and remarriage. I just finished reading Divorce & Remarriage: Rediscovering the Biblical Perspective 2nd edition by William F. Luck. He does a good job taking a look at most of the biblical texts concerning divorce and remarriage, and he does so in a chronological way, with the principle that newer revelations are building on and clarifying older ones, not redefining or annulling older ones. Thus his concept is that as Christ said, "I have not come to annul …

Christ Himself says that He does not know when the end will be, so why should we speculate? My (unsubstantiated) opinion is that the Father read Christ in on the timetable when he got back to Heaven. But I could be wrong.

Maybe. I understand from verse 15, where Rachel tells Leah, "I will let him sleep with you tonight in exchange for the mandrake roots" (a fertility treatment) that Rachel was sleeping with Jacob, to the exclusion of Leah. Perhaps also that she was empowered as the favorite wife to decide who got to sleep with him on a given night (her, the servant wives, Leah, etc.). But if that were so, she could surely have told him, "You're sleeping with me tonight," just like Leah told to Jacob in verse 16. …

I just want to point out that actually Jacob had mostly stopped sleeping with Leah, not Rachel. Despite Rachel being his favorite, she was infertile. That's why Jacob says, "Am I in the place of God, who has withheld from you the fruit of the womb?" He obviously couldn't say that if he had been refusing to sleep with her. See Genesis 30:1-24. Verse 22 says, "Then God remembered Rachel, and God listened to her and opened her womb."

That sure sounds like respect to me! ;-) True, it does sound like one definition of the English word "respect". Appreciation, recognition for accomplishments, etc. But it's not the same kind of "respect" that is poorly or ambiguously translated "respect" by most translations in Ephesians 5:33, namely, reverence, submission to, and obedience to authority.

Actually, Proverbs 31:28, 29 and 31 tell us what the Proverbs 31 woman should expect: Her children rise up and bless her; Her husband also, and he praises her, saying: "Many daughters have done nobly, But you excel them all." Give her the product of her hands, And let her works praise her in the gates. She gets the blessing of her children ("Honor thy father and thy mother") and the praise of her husband: "You're a great wife, you're the best wife I know of." Not his respect, at least not the ma…

Here's a thought I've had in the past. A person or institution in a position of authority has a duty to use part of their power to preserve that authority. God bestows authority. On governments over their citizens. On church leaders over their parishioners. On husbands over their wives. On parents over their children. If a child scorns the authority of his parents, part of those parents' job is to discipline the child and help them achieve a healthy submission to that parental authority, so that…

So I've thought about this a lot myself. And I think we're dealing both with a semantic problem within English itself, and a cross-linguistic problem when translating from Greek to English. If you look at definitions for "respect" in English, they are mostly something like this: noun: a feeling of deep admiration for someone or something elicited by their abilities, qualities, or achievements. noun: due regard for the feelings, wishes, rights, or traditions of others. verb: admire (someone or so…

I'd like to point out that Titus 2:4 does instruct women to love their husbands: NLT: These older women must train the younger women to love their husbands and their children, Weymouth: They should school the young women to be affectionate to their husbands and to their children, to be sober-minded, pure in their lives, The word used for love is a compound with phileo however, not agapao as in Ephesians 5. A similar compound with phileo is used to instruct the women to love their children also h…

I recommend them both as encouragement for men of God in the midst of a wicked and perverse generation. It's Good to Be a Man is calmer, well reasoned teaching and has some joint sessions with one of the host's wives. The Patriarchy Podcast is more of a variety show and also has well reasoned teaching.

This is not directed at you but at the idea of boundaries. "Boundaries" can be good or bad. God has established the truest, most authoritative boundaries, which, if we transgress or trespass, means we have sinned. But I think many people (my wife included) use "boundaries" as a socially-acceptable tool to say, "I'm not going to do what God says". You can be in complete rebellion to the Word of God, slap a "boundaries" sticker on it, and bam, you're golden. At least in the eyes of the world, psyc…

As the Bible says, do not give power to women and children. Chapter and verse, please. I'm not saying it's not there - only that such bold claims must always be supported with ACTUAL references. From my recollection, it takes a few theological steps to reach this conclusion and there is no verse directly on point that says, "Thou shalt not let a woman or child vote." I'm not sure if this is what OP was thinking but the first thing that flashed to my mind when I read that part of OP's post was th…

I think there's a lot of value in what you've written, but I also see some things a little differently. Paul writes in Ephesians 5:31-32: As the Scriptures say, "A man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one." This is a great mystery, but it is an illustration of the way Christ and the church are one." The mystery wasn't revealed until Christ was revealed. (Maybe it was also revealed in the analogies of Yahweh and Israel, but that's a slightly diff…

I made this comment in response to one of the comments on the the RedPillWomen post and I'm crossposting it here for comments and critique: To me being submissive is something, and being feminine is something else. Submission is accepting your man, respecting him, and trusting his decisions and being supportive.

allowing your husband to lead I saw this while on mobile and I wanted to come back to comment. I think you should rather say, "It's about wholeheartedly following your husband," or something like that. By allowing your husband to lead, you're still putting yourself in the control seat. "OK. I'll allow him to lead. I can rescind this at any time. I'm really still in control, still in charge. But it pleases me to assume the role of follower and helper. For now anyways."

As a balance to the one-sided view that inner beauty is all that matters, there is also the whole book of the Song of Solomon, including verses like: 1:8 "If you don't know, O most beautiful woman..." 1:15 "How beautiful you are, my beloved, how beautiful!" 2:14 "Your voice is pleasant, and you are lovely." 4:1 "How beautiful you are, my beloved, how beautiful!" 4:3 "Oh, how beautiful your mouth!" 4:7 "You are so beautiful, my beloved, so perfect in every part." 6:4 "O my beloved, you are as bea…

As with many things in the Christian life, Spirit-led balance between extremes is called for.
