You really don't think that God has stopped being active in ALL women's lives, do you?

I, for one, do not think that. However, I do wonder how much of "female" culture has made G-d's word "of no effect" in their lives. There is clear Scriptural precedent for such a state of affairs.

Consider Jesus' indictment of the religionists of his day with regard to "honor." He clearly lays out how the religious culture that approved giving money to "charity" rather than ones own parents nullified the intent of the Commandment.

I believe the same mindset is at work when women bring out their whole coterie of "alternative aggressions" to achieve goals they've already been denied, or may be denied.

Many people did not have role models in their life for how a biblical, Christ-centered marriage should resemble. As men and women mature in their spiritual walk with Jesus Christ and knowledge of His word they will better understand their roles. We were created each with a special purpose and none of us were created to be lone rangers. Whether male or female as we learn the will of God, we understand that He desires us to be selfless, have a spirit of humilty, and loving. We learn to submit to one another. This only happens when the Holy Spirit is working in and through us.
