On hate being redefined and patriarchy points

God our Father in Heaven is a Patriarch, Patriarchy is quintessentially Christian.

Anyone who disagrees 👉 is on Satan's side.

Part of the biggest problem with the evil left is redefining words to turn God's truths into lies. Satan twists truth and Scripture, so too do his minions.

For example:

-- "Love" is now supposed to mean "endorse my sin and don't call me out on it."

-- "Phobic" (usually as a suffix to some sort of sexual sin) is now supposed to mean a failure to endorse a sin (usually a sexual sin), instead of "afraid of".

-- "hate" is now supposed to mean calling people out on their sins, or noting what is sin even if meant in a caring way to point people to truth.

-- "systemic misogyny" is supposed to mean scriptural love and honor of women

...and many more.

Don't conflate leftist politics with the Gospel. That is on the edge of blasphemy.

It's important when we talk about "patriarchy" that we separate that from "abusive behavior."

Patriarchy is God's natural order, and it is not abusive. There is nothing Christian about abuse. Patriarchy, when practiced in proper order, is loving, steadfast, and perfectly Christian.

Christian men are commanded by Christ to love and lead their wife. Commanded to love and instruct their children. Wives are to lovingly submit to their husband; knowing like Christ who loves and leads the Church, that it is about what is in our family's best interest. It doesnt mean slavery, it means partnership but with the head having final say. Marriage is a shadow of the relationship between Christ and the Church (as his bride, and the head of the body of believers), and when understood right & truthfully it all makes sense. The husband follows the example of "God who loves" and everything right God has said and revealed in Scripture.... so that is how he treats his wife and children.

It is not about oppression or hatred.

A good husband loves and leads his family to bless them, same with a father who loves his child. He doesnt mistreat the one he loves. He shows his live and affection, does good, blesses, provides for, and his arms are (overall) a place of safety and protection.

This is the generation of "getting educated". So,

When is the last time you read the Bible cover to cover? When is the last time you read the below books on the subject?
