Quote of the week.

Wrath of Gnon is quoting Scrunton. He is wiser than me. I’m quoting Dry Bones from Dalrock’s blog.

We in the west have been openly trained in rebellion, love of self, and advancing our personal passions over the good of our families, Churches & communities for some time. From Rousseau (at least) we have made idols of self-determination and democracy. Thus Wilson cannot imagine a husband forcing a wife to act against her will. The Horrors! To allow a man to have real authority over his wife endangers foundational goals of the Enlightenment (equality, fraternity, ideological freedom, liberty, etc.).

Such Enlightenment ideals were and remain largely incompatible with scripture and every form of historic Christianity. This was intentional as Rousseau, Voltaire, Diderot, et. al, were seeking to build a new world to overthrow and replace Christendom. Their effective battle cry – “I WILL NOT SERVE GOD” (as first said by Satan, then Eve, and ultimately all that will be lost).

God disagrees with our self-determined, stiff necked rebellion against his Divine order. He shows no “respect” for self-willed people who “vote” against the Divine will. You disagree with God? Too bad- you lose- only His vote counts.

Gen 3 showed His order: God —> Man —> Woman (and later) —> children. Satan reverse this order in the Garden (Satan over Eve over Adam over God). Satan reversed order worked to end Paradise, and today works to destroy western civilization.
