The NXR Podcast - DAILY TRUTH - Biblical Masculinity Is Under Attack

00:00:00.000 Hey guys, real quick, before we get started, I have a small request.

00:00:03.360 If you've been blessed by our content and you like this show,

00:00:06.420 would you take just a brief moment and leave us a five-star review?

00:00:09.740 This is quite possibly the most effective thing that you can do

00:00:12.860 to ensure that this content gets out to as many people as possible.

00:00:17.520 Thanks.

00:00:19.700 Jesus said,

00:00:20.800 Man cannot live on bread alone, but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.

00:00:25.440 You're listening to Daily Truth.

00:00:30.000 What are we seeing in Genesis 1 and 2?

00:00:32.200 That God created man and woman at the same time.

00:00:35.920 No.

00:00:37.340 First the man, then the woman.

00:00:39.900 But God created both of them from the dust of the ground.

00:00:42.420 No.

00:00:43.340 The man from the dust of the ground.

00:00:45.080 The woman was formed from man and for man.

00:00:48.560 And then both were assigned to be mutual helpmates of one another.

00:00:51.840 No.

00:00:52.880 The woman was called to be a helpmate of her husband.

00:00:56.100 And not the other way around.

00:00:57.320 that does not mean that a husband can't ever help his wife but there is a difference it is not a

00:01:04.140 it is not a mutual flowing both direction kind of situation it's not a husband can lovingly help

00:01:11.740 his wife and should but he is not called and ordained by God to be her helpmate in the way

00:01:18.020 that she has been uniquely called and ordained by God to be his helpmate and so all of this is before

00:01:24.620 sin ever entered the world. All this is pre-Genesis chapter 3. We see very clearly that God's good

00:01:32.080 created order introduces complementarian relationships between men and women. So Christ

00:01:38.760 conquering the curse has nothing to do with it because the curse isn't what introduced

00:01:46.040 complementarianism. What did the curse introduce? Complementarianism? No. Your aversion to

00:01:53.600 complementarianism that's what the text says very clearly so what's the result of the curse

00:02:00.480 that men are called to leave the result of the curse is that women won't want men to leave

00:02:07.820 the result of the curse is feminism it's very clear and we need to recognize that

00:02:14.600 have men abused leadership yes absolutely but again that's not our text so our text is not

00:02:22.780 primarily talking about Adam being abusive. Now, it does speak to great lengths of Adam's failure,

00:02:29.840 but in this case, it's not Adam's over-dominance or Adam's abusive tendencies. Rather, a man can

00:02:37.160 fail in his leadership by being abusive. He can also fail on the other end by being apathetic,

00:02:43.860 and that's what we see, I think, in our culture today. Because there have been past abuses,

00:02:49.900 all of a sudden we've thrown the baby out with the bathwater we have a culture that is earnestly

00:02:55.980 seeking to emasculate men and now what we have is no longer abusive men not saying that there's not

00:03:03.000 any at all but at large no longer abusive men but apathetic lazy passive uninvolved men

00:03:13.040 that's what we have and culture has been pushing this for decades whether it's everybody loves

00:03:20.300 raymond which i enjoy but in every sitcom the simpsons everybody loves raymond i mean everything

00:03:25.840 you could think of what do you have attractive smart courageous wife and a fat out of shape

00:03:35.620 lazy, dumb husband. Our culture has been working very intentionally on this for years and I think

00:03:46.560 we bought it and we need to repent. Thanks so much for listening, but real quick, before you go,

00:03:51.960 do us a small favor, take a moment and leave us a five-star review if you enjoyed the show.

00:03:57.500 This is undoubtedly the best way that you can help us get this biblically faithful content

00:04:02.760 to as many people as possible.

00:04:04.900 Thanks so much.
