Palin And The Christian's Quandary Part III

Bret McAtee / The Backwater Report:
First, Scripture teaches that God's created order disallows a woman as civil magistrate. Though most American citizens and most American Christians hate it, the reality is that God's word teaches that Man was to be the covenant head, and that woman was made to be man's companion and help-meet. Scripture teaches (I Tim. 2:13, I Cor. 11:13, I Cor. 11:8-9) that the creation order was by design and that the teleological end of that creation order, in regard to male female relationships was that man should have positional, authority and leadership priority. The position of men and women in this regard is not something that is cultural, nor is it something that came about because of the fall, but rather the position of men and women is anchored in the creation order. People are welcome to defy that order but someone has to be the one who tells them that the snap-back of reality is painful. [Part I] [Part II]
