Dear all,

I am from Singapore, i am a male and i serve in a local church here. I would like to share my point of view having studied what everyone said here and what i’ve garnered in my learning. In love and gentleness, i would like to say that i am for both men ministry and women ministry. however, i would also like to share that God created man and woman separately, differently for a reason. i am for Federal Headship not because i am like what most people here say “alpha male theorist” but rather, i would like to take after what God said in the bible paraphrased “the woman ate the apple, but sin entered the world through the man.” how is it so? if both roles are the same, then eve could’ve have taken the rap… but why “sin through adam” then to us? obviously, man – represented his people, and in this case eve. Adam represented the entire world and eve along with it. It was God who gave Adam the position to name all animals ahead of woman being created.

Over time, as generations degrade and degrade on further… family integrity social fabrics are torn as families no longer are Father, Mother and children but rather ‘man-man & children’, ‘woman-woman and children’ or simply ‘woman-children’ or ‘man-children’. These children grow up without vital perceptions of family intact or having their spiritual, emotional, physical and social side nourished. They grow up impaired and join with other impaired children building upon errors of errors to form our society today… Today, man are weak, wimpy, chauvinistic and dominating for the wrong reasons. I, in church am doing my best to portray manhood in its biblical manner… while working along with woman to win as many souls as we can for Christ. But when man fail to do their role, God will arise other beings to replace it, even Donkeys!

Both man and woman are responsible for their own walk with God. Of course men do not open door for women! The only person who opens door is God and the Son Himself and the Holy Spirit. But we didnt design the family system, it was God. Our ‘singlehood’ is in preparation of our ‘familyhood’. In my church, and majority in asia, majority churches have more woman strongheads and leaders than man… it is very worrying because this spills over to life examples and their life outside church.

In Love of Christ and His ever Glorious Church
Jeremiah (Acts 20:24)
