warrior – 11:3 Restoration

Marxist Feminism and Weak Men

Until yesterday morning, I’m not sure I would have connected the terms ‘Marxist’ and ‘Feminism,’ but I’ll never make that mistake again!!

Thanks to a GREAT recommendation by The Transformed Wife, I heard Eric Conn’s Hard Men Podcast titled ‘Against Complementarianism.’ This may be the best investment of 39 minutes I have made in the last year!

Eric had my attention from the very beginning when he mentioned, negatively, John Piper and Wayne Grudem’s Recovering Biblical Manhood & Womanhood, A Response to Evangelical Feminism. I began reading the book a year or two ago as part of my study of Biblical manhood, but I never could quite connect with their position. Something was inherently wrong, but I couldn’t put my finger on it.

A Flaming Arrow?

A little while ago, a friend left this comment on the **Update** SC National Shabbat Details!! post:

Interesting… Immediately, my mind went back to a verse I read yesterday in Zechariah:

^{Zechariah 9:13}For I will bend Judah as My bow,
I will fill the bow with Ephraim.
And I will stir up your sons, O Zion, against your sons, O Greece;
And I will make you like a warrior’s sword.

The larger context of that passage is Judah and Ephraim coming together to fight their enemies and the Lord defending them and fighting for them as they destroy Greece/Edom…

Thoughts?
