I truly don't see myself as a legalist. I believe that we are saved by grace through faith demonstrated by works. If we truly believe on Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior that means that we surrender our will to him.
I posted earlier that scripture said a woman is to be a keeper of the home and it was said, in a nutshell, we should support our wives to be what they want to be.
Qustion: does this scenario show a person following God or their own ambitions?
DE 22:5 says that it is an abomination to God for a woman to wear that which pertains to man, and in essence it has be said nothing is specifically male or female dress unless the person is intentionally trying to be drag (even a woman can wear men branded pants if it is a better fit). Culture is the determining factor of what is male and female.
Question: Does our faith in God lead us to follow cultural norms?
Lot vexed his righteous soul from day to day while he was in Gomorrah. Do you think that meant that he was fluid and just went with the flow of everything. I personally believe that the feminist movement that has swept this country and taken control has confused God's natural order.
One more question: If a husband and a wife disagree in regards to a family decision and they don't come to a consensus, who has the say? Men are to love their wives, but the scripture teaches that wives are to obey their husbands. This is something I don't hear taught even among most apostolic churches.
I have heard things said like, "woman was taken out of man's side and not his foot, therefore she is supposed to walk beside her husband and not under him". As if making decisions contrary to your wife is walking on her. Men are demonized for taking charge in their homes. If men don't love and protect their families they will answer for it, but in a Christian home the man is supposed to wear the pants.
