WHEN MISOGYNY IN THE CHURCH LEADS TO BLATANT AND SEXUALLY IMMORAL

Been having one of those struggles with God, about several things,

and in doing some research, was appalled at finding one web site, that pretty much says this:

that sex in Christ, in marriage, means for women, bondage, abuse, tolerating other women in the marriage bed, fisting, rape acting out,

you name it, and they had the Gall, to use scripture, to justify these immoral acts of violence against the wife.

This is no doubt in my mind, the last days,

while I am no prude,

I draw the line, draw the line in the sand, when I see, someone or a church, in the name of God, using distortions of scripture,

to mandate and justify, sexual abuse in the marriage. Basically it boils down to this,

the man/men, are selfish assholes, who care nothing about love, intimacy, positive sex between married adults who have mutual respect and love, no,

these are men, who are lusting only after their desires of the flesh that cannot be satisfied, because its like a consuming fire,

that never is put out...not only do these men/teachers of false prophecy demand obedience by their wives no matter what,

they are demanding, their wives, to partake in bondage, sexual bondage, violent sex to the point of bleeding/harm, threesomes and so forth, orgies, in the marriage bed and then having the nerve to say,

the marriage bed is undefiled.

What EVIL!

What is next, those men, demanding women to bring in children into the bed too?

You know, the church, needs to stop pandering to the desires of men and their penises,

seriously,

do we not have ANY SELF CONTROL?

Are we to be just like the pagans and unbelievers who throw the children into the fire of Moloch?

The reason I am bringing this up, is THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS, when there is a focus on submission or surrender,

that is this type of surrender, be it to Christ or to man as in Christ, or to authority,

which, is this passive surrender, that no matter what happens, you just sit and take it,

and then, partake of it, even if its sin.

That is why I have a real problem with the submission teaching, because it is being So abused,

where women, are not even protecting their children, from the sexual abuses of their husbands.

Something is WRONG WITH THAT .....

do we submit too, when our husbands want to throw our children into the fire?

WHERE DO WE DRAW THE LINE, WHEN IT COMES

TO

SUBMISSION

AND SURRENDER?

This abuse of scripture I must say, has caused me more trouble in my relationship with Christ because Every time I hear, any preacher

talk about complete surrender to God,

I CRINGE.

I'm not talking, about obedience to God's Word,

but this whole idea of complete surrender and this, whatever happens or comes my way I will just be passive and take it,

something in my cringes, and I've prayed, I know about rebellion, about putting the flesh to death,

about complete giving ourselves to Christ,

but there is this thing there that, is like this,

when do we test the spirits, to make sure, we aren't completely surrendering ourselves to Satan himself, to be possessed?

Maybe that is it,

maybe, its how the whole surrender thing is taught, as if its complete possession,

without any human will whatsoever,

and that, to me, is what so much of the submission teaching is,

its like, this 'submit to being possessed by another' no matter WHAT THEY DEMAND OR DO TO YOU.

To where, we no longer have minds or decisions or even the ability to reason,

we just blindly and passively just take and yes, That is, like a BSDM relationship,

which,

if that was what Christ wanted,

why not just follow the dark side?

And sacrifice ourselves and children and the whole lot,

being 'sarcastic' here for the sake of argument,

this is something, that has caused me much distress in my Christian life and though, I am in NO WAY,

saying, to be trusting of the sinful self or in disobedience in any way to God,

I do have a problem, with this whole passive do nothing take all kinds of abuse especially when its sexual,

just because, a husband demands it.

And so many churches are pushing that,

and so many women are perpetuating that. When do we ever stand up,

and say

NO.

IF we were meant, to just be passive and take whatever and sin when our governments or husbands demand it of us,

then why, did Paul say,

better to suffer for doing right, than for doing wrong?

IF we partake in sin,

that is doing wrong, so, are we then suffering for doing right?

Why would God say, on one hand,

do not sin here, here, and here,

then on another, say

because you are woman and husband says so, partake in this sin and just trust me?

Sounds more,

like satan worship to me.

[adding a bit later, Thank you Jesus, you know, I love it when the Holy Spirit confirms something for me, don't know how I came across this blog, but the author here,

nailed it, exactly what this blind submission and warped teaching of Christianity, does lead to]

excerpt: Andrea Yate's Husband: Why Does He Bother Me So?

Recently remarried former husband to child killer Andrea Yates bothers me. No, he didn't drown his children. She did it. She is responsible. She is a grown woman. And she is being tried, again, for the murder of five kids--her own. Their lives are snuffed out before they really had begun because a woman too proud or too mad to ask for help chose a permanent, violent solution to the problem of her burden. And yes, I'm aware that if a man committed this heinous crime (except if he was a combat vet) he would not be the subject (probably) of a post like this. But there is a reason for that.
