Honor Women without Dishonoring Men
It shouldn’t be necessary to dishonor men in order to honor women, but that is exactly what feminism has been doing for the last century. By contrast, Christ honors both men and women – most of all by making them, respectively, male and female. If what God has joined together should not be put asunder, how much more should what God has made not be unmade. In fact, it cannot be unmade – it can only be defaced. Let us – whether male or female – be content with the honor God has bestowed upon us. Greediness is unbecoming of creatures…and attempts at autonomy are madness.

There can be secularism without feminism, but there cannot be feminism without secularism. This is because the purpose of secularism is to keep God out of the discussion, and feminism has no interest in being guided by God.

Feminism Weakens Men
Satan inspired the ideology of feminism in order to bind strong men. Consider something Jesus said.
- Mark 3:23 And He called them to Himself and began speaking to them in parables, “How can Satan cast out Satan?
Mark 3:24 “If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.
Mark 3:25 “If a house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand.
Mark 3:26 “If Satan has risen up against himself and is divided, he cannot stand, but he is finished!
Mark 3:27 “But no one can enter the strong man’s house and plunder his property unless he first binds the strong man, and then he will plunder his house. - And feminists think feminism was their idea!
- Feminists think they’ve made themselves strong but all they’ve really accomplished is to make men weak.
- Satan cannot overcome a strong man and therefore cannot destroy a strong man’s family. What he can do is make men feel ashamed and guilty for being strong, thus inducing them to cower and capitulate. Then he can destroy such men and their families.
- 1 Cor 16:13 Be on the alert, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong.
