I don’t recall anywhere in the bible that discourages women from working. Men and women should both make family their priority. That includes pastors and missionaries, family should always come first.
There are countless scriptures regarding women working. Again, I don’t believe women are competing. In terms of salary, I see no reason that the pay should be based on performance, not based on gender, race, etc.
For instance, lets refer to Proverbs 31:16-18
“16 She considers a field and buys it; with the fruit of her hands she plants a vineyard”
17 She sets about her work vigorously;
her arms are strong for her tasks.
18 She sees that her trading is profitable,
and her lamp does not go out at night.
Here we have a woman who is handling the money, purchasing property, and planting a vinyard, she also makes trades for her business.
Sounds like a business woman. As we know She’s also taking care of her family. Is she competing in a man’s world?
I think you’re in a great deal of denial about the tenants of the “women’s movement” and what’s happening right now.
The Bible says that women are to be under obedience to the man (1 Corinthians 14:34) who is their head (1 Corinthians 11:3). Women are to be keepers of the home (Titus 2:4-5).
The “women’s movement”, “feminism” and popular culture all clearly and expressly militate against these biblical commandments to women. You’re in a great deal of denial if you don’t realize this basic fact.
