Some incredible excerpts/statements from Five Lies:

This book is for Christian, especially Christian WOMEN.

  • But still a valuable read for guys - which is why we are tackling this book on T4M

But some of us believe, as I do, that God’s design for women determines our roles and our priorities. The Christian family matters, and its neglect is deadly.

  • God’s design for women is biologically to bear children - and the greatest calling and responsibility for Christians (men and women) is to train children and raise them in the fear and admonition of the Lord…
  • This will require a sacrifice from both men and women in terms of their priorities and opportunities…

This book [the Bible] offers one simple answer: the world is in chaos, and the church is divided because we have failed to obey God and value his plan for how men and women should live.

The creation of man and woman, also known as the “creation ordinance,” is CENTRAL, not peripheral, to the GOSPEL.

God is holy, and therefore ignorance, iniquity, and ungodliness reflect our sin nature in Adam.

Three “exchanges” of truth for lies in Romans 1:21-28

  • First there is the exchange of the Creator for the creature, or the exchange of God worship for idol worship
  • Second is the exchange of truth for lies
  • Third comes the exchange of natural sexuality (heterosexuality) or dishonorable passions (homosexuality)

The Five Lies:

Lie #1: Homosexuality is normal

  • Lie #1 claims that the word of God doesn’t apply to homosexual orientation because homosexual orientation represents a person’s core truth
  • But if you exchange the Creator for the creature, you impose God’s attributes on man.

Lie #2: Being a spiritual person is kinder than being a biblical Christian.

Lie #3: Feminism is good for the world and the church.

  • In 2023, we cannot even define what a woman is or defend her right to exist

Lie #4: Transgenderism is normal.

Lie #5: Modesty is an outdated burden that serves male dominance and holds women back.

My reason for changing my mind can be stated in two words: Obergefell (as in Obergefell v. Hodges, 2015) and Bostock (as in Bostock v. Clayton County, 2020)

  • Obergefell legalized same-sex marriage
  • Bostock made sexual orientation a protected class

Thomas Watson in The Doctrine of Repentance

  1. Recognition of sin
  2. Sorrow for sin
  3. Confession of sin
  4. Shame for sin
  5. Hatred for sin
  6. Turning from sin

Thomas Watson comments:

“Loving of sin is worse than committing it. A goodman may run into a sinful action unawares, but to love sin is desperate…”

After Obergefell and Bostock, LGBTQ+ describes who someone is rather than how someone feels.

T4M guys - just a reminder that Training4Manhood is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) ministry and you can make donations either via Zelle (info@training4manhood.com) or by visiting the Training4Manhood website.

Huge thank you to Jared Wood for allowing T4M to use his music in our intro and outro selections.
