The Real Question
After Tony Campolo speaks to Christians at church or other gatherings about marriage and family, as he is asked now and then to do, he often gets a man who stands up and says, “But you haven’t answered the real question…. Who’s supposed to be the head of the house?”
Should Christians ever ask who is going to be master? Tony wonders. Especially in the light of what Jesus said in Mark 9:35: “Anyone who wants to be first must be the very last, and the servant of all.” TNIV
Indeed. I expect there are going to be quite a number of female subordinationists in heaven who will be very very surprised at how things are ordered there. If they truly took this verse to heart, they would not be so adamant about their unilateral authority over women in this world.
Yay! I LOVE Tony C.
