Rebuttal of Bruce Ware’s Complementarian Reading of Genesis
Rev 3:17 You say, ‘I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.’ But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked. 18I counsel you to buy from me gold refined in the fire, so you can become rich; and white clothes to wear, so you can cover your shameful nakedness; and salve to put on your eyes, so you can see.
Ephesians 1:17-19
17I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit[a] of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. 18I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, 19and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength,
LORD, I pray for Bruce Ware and others who teach these things.
I pray that you would remove the scales from their eyes.
Thank YOU, Lord, that YOU value and love your precious daughters.
Thank YOU that YOU are my refuge and strength.
YOU are my defender.
YOU are my shield.
YOU protect me.
Thank YOU! I love you too, Lord!
LORD have mercy upon these men.
Lord have mercy upon their wives.
Lord have mercy upon their children.
Lord have mercy upon those who listen to them and believe what they say.
Been there and done that ![]()
Thank you for lifting me out of a horrible pit and setting my feet upon a rock! Psalm 40:2
Thank you that you made me “sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus” “FAR ABOVE all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come” Eph 2:6; Eph 1:21
I’ve got a new sin to add to my blog: the sin of Adam. Adam blamed his wife and God for having sinned. Isn’t that what our friend Mr. Ware is subtly implying?
What he forgets is that:
God NEVER commanded man to rule over woman.
God DIRECTLY commanded man to LOVE woman as Christ loved the church.
If the man wishes to have his own will, he’s being self-serving and not loving as Christ loved the church, therefore he is sinning.
The wife reacts and wants her way.
The man abuses.
Who caused the sin initially?
Oooops….
