Wow!! In Clip #6 he tells us that a woman’s greatest and deepest spiritual resource is a man…a man.

So, God’s living Word and the Holy Spirit takes a backseat to a man? In 1 Cor. 7 it would seem that it is better for a woman to remain single so that she can devote herself totally to the Lord without worrying about how to please a man. Now, if this is true, then how can a single woman actually devote herself fully to the Lord when she has no “greatest and deepest spiritual resource” in her life?

I can’t really buy other statements about men and women being equal but just having different roles. Not with these teachings.

Women are clearly lower created beings and they are but a dim reflection derived from man of God. Women derive their significance from men. He states that men are giving the duty of taking divine dominion but in my Bible it says that God told both the man and the woman that it was their duty to take divine dominion. And it never mentions anything about having dominion over other human beings.

Cheryl, I recently ordered your DVDs and I will be viewing those. These quotes from MacArthur really spur me on to watching your DVDs in order to see how you flesh out these verses.

Do you cover what it means when 1 Cor. 11 says that man is the image and glory of God but woman is the glory of man?

Thanks!
