WOMEN in SCRIPTURE – I

How far are modern woman and man off track!
What suffering will it take to bring them back?

Our times are in much confusion on the subject of man and woman. Here below,
God Himself speaks on the subject. He should know, because it is He that designed
us, and not we ourselves (Ps. 99, 3).

Gen. II, 18–24:A helpmate.
18 And the Lord God said: It is not good for man to be alone: let us make him a
helpmate like unto himself . . . 21 Then the Lord God cast a deep sleep upon Adam:
and when he was fast asleep, He took one of his ribs, and filled up flesh for it. 22 And
the Lord God made the rib which he took from Adam into a woman: and brought her to
Adam. 23 And Adam said: This now is bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh; she
shall be called woman, because she was taken out of man. 24 Wherefore a man shall
leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they shall be two in one flesh.

Gen. III, 16: The Fall: punishment, submission
To the woman also He said: I will multiply thy sorrows, and thy conceptions: in sorrow
shalt thou bring forth children, and thou shalt be under thy husband’s power, and
he shall have dominion over thee.

1 Cor. XI, 3–12: Hierarchy
3 But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of
the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God . . . 7 The man indeed ought
not to cover his head, because he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the
glory of the man. 8 For the man is not of the woman, but the woman of the man. 9 For
the man was not created for the woman, but the woman for the man.

Eph. V, 21–33: Marriage
22 Let women be subject to their husbands, as to the Lord; 23 Because the husband
is the head of the wife, as Christ is the head of the church. He is the saviour of His Body.
24 Therefore as the church is subject to Christ, so also let the wives be subject to their
husbands in all things . . . 33 Nevertheless let every one of you in particular love his wife
as himself: and let the wife fear her husband.

Col. III, 18–21: Family
18 Wives, be subject to your husbands, as it is fitting in the Lord. 19 Husbands, love
your wives, and be not bitter towards them. 20 Children, obey your parents in all things:
for this pleases well the Lord.

1 Tim. II, 9–15: Salvation, Motherhood
11 Let the woman learn in silence, with all submission. 12 But I suffer not a woman to
teach, nor to use authority over the man: but to be in silence. 13 For Adam was first
formed; then Eve. 14 And Adam was not seduced; but the woman being seduced, was in the
transgression. 15 Yet she shall be saved through childbearing . . . if she continue in faith,
and love, and sanctification, with sobriety.

Tit. II 4–5: Young women / love of family
4 That they may teach the young women to be wise, to love their husbands, to love their
children, 5 To be discreet, chaste, sober, having a care of the house, gentle, obedient to their
husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.

I Pet. III, 1–7: The weaker sex
1 In like manner also let wives be subject to their husbands: that if any believe not the
word, they may be won without the word, by the conversation of the wives . . . 5 For after this
manner heretofore the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in
subjection to their own husbands… 7 Ye husbands, likewise dwelling with them according
to knowledge, giving honour to the female as to the weaker vessel, and as to the co-heirs
of the grace of life: that your prayers be not hindered.

Kyrie eleison

Many times I have made mistakes in my life. If only I had read and comprehended my Bible earlier in life.

And to hand over life’s difficulties to God and my husband.

I know of many women who hand out communion in the novus Ordo while neglecting their household. Their children and grand children mostly live unholy life styles and are ignorant of scripture. St Jerome said if you are ignorant of scripture then you are ignorant of Jesus Christ.

Now we have Bergolio putting women in charge of helping to make plans to corrupt Church law to include mortal sin. The Pope should encourage women to make God, husbands and children a priority.

Not for nothing did the serpent target Eve and not Adam. It's gotten to where there are many, many women who lack headship. They're spiritually stranded and unable to discern the right path in everything from how to honor The Lord (and even that they must, not merely how) all the way down to the base triviality of how to get through a mundane weekday. These are the women tempted by occasions of pride, both spiritual and worldly. Then follows the vicious circle of young sons, prospective husbands, modern men of all states in life ceding their duties to protect and lead, and here we are in 2023.

Not for nothing are there so many lines in Scripture that declare Our Lady to be the new [anti-] Eve. If only more women who lack God-fearing headship would be both humble and brave enough to take note and trust in God directly, perhaps the trend might start to correct itself, no matter what the Vatican does or does not say.
