male v female

I am really growing in my appreciation of the Gospel and how that is displayed through marriage, the Church, etc... And in that growing appreciation, the fallenness of the current world-view is becoming all the more clear. The world isn't only attacking marriage or male-female roles, it's an attack on the Gospel.

I now more appreciate John Piper for noting that Christianity has a masculine feel. I know some object and I'm still not sure I would choose the same language as Piper. But for the violent objectors, it's clear from their support of the LBGTQ agenda and their failure to understand the difference between masculine-feminine vs. male-female, they simply miss God's greater plan.

As wise men try to address the perversions of our times, the foolish appear with their accusations based on a wrong understanding of what the wise have said and more importantly, of what God has said. They simply don't get the beauty of it all because they can only thinking within the confines of their fallen nature and/or incomplete understanding of the Gospel itself.

If you have time, and the stomach for the haters, it's worth watching the Sexual By Design - the second video found here.

UPDATE: Jared Wilson does a retraction.
