MALE & FEMALE: Order & Chaos at Home & at Church - Reese

God is a God of ORDER, DECENCY, and PROPRIETY (1 Cor. 14:33, 40)--but the prevailing spirit of our Age is one of CHAOS, INDECORUM, and LAWLESSNESS (Judges 21:25)!!! In this introductory message, we will be looking at the modern debate between complementarians & egalitarians in relation to God's call for Christians to observe appropriate and distinctive gender-based functions within the realms of both the home (Gal. 5:22-33) and the church (1 Tim. 2:8-15). Willful failure to observe God's prescribed patterns of order is an act of REBELLION (which is likened to the sin of witchcraft in 1 Sam. 15:23) and is conforming to the Luciferian image and likeness of the original Rebel (Isa. 14:12-15) who seduced the entire world by enticing our mother Eve to set aside her appropriately assigned role and leave the protection of her husband, Adam.
