We are not comfortable with the idea of submission. I can’t tell you the amount of conversations I’ve had with close friends and family about it as it relates to the Bible. Some examples...“Have confidence in your leaders and submit to their authority”“Submit yourselves, then, to God.”"Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands (as you do to the Lord.)“not my will, but yours be done.”“Submit yourselves for the Lord’s sake to every human authority:” "let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me."Seems kind of negative. Sounds as though women are not worth as much as men. I’m not comfortable with that kind of submission either. As a matter of fact, in the words of Elisabeth Elliot “I’m not particularly comfortable with any kind, but since it was God’s idea and not mine, I had better come to terms with what the Bible says about it and stop rejecting the whole thing just because it is so often misunderstood and wrongly defined.”So let’s get it right shall we?//Everything you need is hereIncluded in that link is a list of resources and references I use in this podcast and can help you grow deeper in your faith as well. As always – ratings and reviews are massive!
