Brother Jeff,<\/p>\n
Thank you for the way you have been helping me in the faith. It has been invaluable and I understand some things I previously didn’t.<\/p>\nI don’t know if you’ve heard of MGTOW which is “Men Going Their Own Way.” It isn’t unexpected that such will arise in a time of modern feminism. I also know that MGTOW is worldly too. I need some Scriptural backbone to fully understand it.\nThanks.\n\t
“However, in the Lord, neither is woman independent of man, nor is man independent of woman. <\/i>For as the woman originates from the man, so also the man has his birth through the woman; and all things originate from God<\/i>” (I Corinthians 11:11-12).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This is a piece of fatherly advice. God bless you.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
