A Biblical Return? Or Desperate Counterfeits? For generations, modern feminism has taught women that male authority is oppression, motherhood is a limitation, dependence is degrading, and personal autonomy is the highest good. But what happens when rebellion against God's created order finally produces loneliness, fatherlessness, broken homes, confused sexual identities, weakened men - and desperation? Isaiah describes a society in which mature and honorable men disappear, women and children rule, the daughters of Zion become haughty, and sin is displayed without shame. Yet after judgment falls and "thy men shall fall by the sword," the situation is dramatically reversed: Isaiah 4:1 And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name, to take away our reproach. Is our culture beginning to follow a similar pattern? Many women are rediscovering the value of masculine protection, provision, leadership, marriage, motherhood, and a husband's name. That may appear to be movement in the right direction - but desperation is not necessarily repentance. The collapse of feminism could produce biblical restoration for many. But for others, it could produce dangerous counterfeits: polygamy, male tyranny, sexual exploitation, perverse movements, etc. Women must reject rebellion against God's order. But men must also reject passivity, pornography, fornication, cowardice, bitterness, and cruel domination. The answer is not a war between the sexes. It is the surrender of both sexes to Jesus Christ and the ways of the Bible.

We review a sermon on Psalm 101 called, The Failed Resolutions of King David

We take some time to consider Psalm 101

A Biblical Testing Mindset: Victory in an Evil Age: 1. PATHWAY TO MATURITY, Four characteristics of maturity, Straightforward Speech; 2. REQUIREMENTS: Salvation, Conviction that the Bible is God's infallible Word, Oracles of God, Skillful in: teacher, understanding, discernment of good and evil; Protection from Apostasy, a testing mindset must be a habit; 3. A DIFFERENT KIND OF CHURCH: Interpret Bible prophecy properly, defend the Bible as the infallible Word of God, Sound Bible Doctrine, Separation from the world; become stronger in every way, Forward Faster, NOT backward

We take some time to review a sermon on Proverbs 4:23

4:01 Does the Bible call us to apologize to others as well as repent to God? 7:00 Is it okay to attend two different churches on a Sunday morning? 11:22 How should I confront my family that has allowed people in my family to be abused and victimized? 13:11 How do you get my child to see their need for Christ amidst ongoing disobedience? 19:55 Is pornography in a marriage unfaithfulness and grounds for divorce? 22:45 What will the Holy Spirit's role be in eternity? 27:48 What do you think about prominent pastors who step down and say they are now agnostic and atheist? 35:29 How do I find a balance between sharing the gospel and talking about everyday things with non-Christians? 39:58 What do you think about people who have an internet ordained pastor marry them? 42:43 What do we do with pastors who associate with speakers we don't agree with? 48:24 Did the Centurion who gave Jesus sour wine on the cross trying to disgrace him?

The devotional examines Joshua chapter 7 to illustrate how hidden sin leads to unexpected defeat in both personal and communal life. It emphasizes that individual choices, particularly those involving forbidden desires, can negatively impact entire families or organizations. The preacher urges listeners to seek divine guidance to identify and remove any spiritual contamination within their homes. By confronting specific sins like the allure of pornography, believers can restore God's blessing and protect His reputation among unbelievers. Ultimately, dealing with sin is presented as the necessary path to recovering peace and victory in one's life.
