16  Theology / General Theology / Re:What Would Happen if Women Left the Workplace? on: December 02, 2004, 10:38:51 AM
As a Christian woman, I definately agree that home is where the woman was intended and still is intended.  Im glad that I am able to stay at home and homeschool my children, even though we dont have as much with only one income we make-do and the family is a lot happier as a whole.
The Women's Movement caused a lot of trouble for women IMO.  Instead, women are now competitive against men, like they have something to prove, as if they are better.
Im not saying men are better than woman, but God did create man first for a reason and woman was made as a help-meet for man, a loving companion with specific duties, just as the man has specific duties (that was quite a long sentence wasnt it? LOL)    Personally, I wish women still didnt have the right to vote..as I see that as the head of households job to do.  Im not saying men should be bossy and "rule the roost" but a good Christian husband would ask his wife's opinions and seek her advice and help in all his decisions...although in the end he should be the decision maker with no whining from wifey-poo.   I know my reply to this topic wont be very appreciated by other women, but its how I feel God meant for it to be.   I feel bad for the women who are forced to be Head of the household because of a mans laziness.  Granted, there are other situations...if a man is disabled ect.
  I truly feel that women with children need to stay at home, and if you arent homeschooling, at least be there when the kids get home, and keep the home nice and organized.
  But let me say this...as a mother of 3 kids, ages 11, almost 4 and almost 2....there arent very many "made from scratch" meals in this house. Wink

17  Theology / Debate / Re:Benny Hinn or Ben Hinnom? on: June 17, 2004, 11:17:03 AM
Benny Hinn simply gives me the creeps.

I read one of his first books before I knew who he was. It was a great book.  Then I saw him on TV and got chills just watching him.  Everything he does, it seems like he does to glorify himself, and never to glorify God.
He seems so....FAKE!  And so do the people who fall down when he touches them.

Now, I dont agree about the money and house issue.
I really really love Jesse Duplantis...and he has money and a nice house and a jet.  Just because someone has money doesnt make them a bad person, come on.

18  Fellowship / Just For Women / Re:Submitting to Husbands on: May 30, 2004, 08:02:22 PM
Well, first I want to say that I was so much like you in my thinking when I got married.  Dh and I argued over it a lot.
When I finally became a TRUE Christian, I finally got it (not saying that you ARENT..but I wasnt)
My hubby doesnt make me bow before him, I dont obey his every command.  But when something comes up, he tells me about it and we discuss it together.  He has solutions that i dont agree with and I have some he doesnt agree with.  In the end though, if we cant agree on it...I go with HIS decision..and it helps to pray about it also.  HE is the head of our household and I dont mind doing it because its how God wants it to be!
Is he always right? Nope.  But neither am I.
In fact, I find myself doing a lot of the things that I consider to be the mans job...like bedtime prayers with our 3 children.
We are their help mates and we are here to encourage them, love them, pray for them and just be here for them.
They have their part to fulfill also reguarding their wives.
When intimatacy is the last thing I want, when he does want it...I dont always submit.  Maybe I should, but thats a hard issue for me.  As a husband, he understands and tries not to ask too much of me.
We arent slaves for men, God never intended for us to be...but I do agree that we are to be submissive to our husbands as best we can.
Sorry, Im sure this hasnt helped much.
