Be a Man

One of the problems facing the church is the absence of biblical masculinity. In this void egalarainism flourishes. Don't get me wrong, there are some good godly men out there. There just aren't enough "in the church." I see two extremes: the macho man and the sissy boy.

The macho man Christian is the guy who has completely swallowed the modern men's movement doctrine. Men don't want to learn in classrooms. Men are rugged, outdoor types. They want to chop wood, ride motorcycles, listen to metal, and have barbecues! So we have guys lift weights for Jesus and ride Harleys for Jesus and NEVER STUDY THEIR BIBLES. These guys suffer from an abundance of supefical masculinity.

The sissy boy Christian guy is the opposite extreme. These are those utlrapassive, yes mam, whatever you want dear types. No leadership, just compliance. These are usually married to the bordeline (if not full blown) feminist types. One of my favorite preachers once said, "You're not going to win men with a bunch of sissies!" Amen. These guys are emasculated and are in desperate need of a spiritual testosterone injection.

Both extremes result in a departure from true, biblical manhood. and must be rejected.

So, be a Christian man instead. Love the Lord. Love your wife & children. Provide for them. Protect them. Model faith in Christ for them. Love the church. Learn the Scripture. Be the spiritual leader in your home.
