She Shall Not Go Out Alone: The Biblical Mandate for Female Guarding

No comments

“Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.”
— Genesis 2:24

“For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and He is the saviour of the body.”
— Ephesians 5:23

In this rebellious age of self-assertion and female autonomy, the biblical household finds itself under siege. No doctrine is more scorned than headship. No principle more despised than the godly husband’s right and responsibility to guard his wife.

Modern society prizes what it calls “freedom” — by which it means unaccountability, detachment, and the rejection of authority. It champions the “independent woman” who comes and goes without consultation, who maintains separate relationships, and who “needs space.” But this is not God’s design. This is disorder. It is a breach in the wall.

Let the feminists howl. Let the world mock. Let even the church recoil. Yet let the righteous man stand unmoved by their storm. For the Scriptures declare plainly: the woman is not to go out alone. She is not to have a private world. She is not to maintain independent lines of communication. Her head is her husband — always, everywhere, in all things.

This is not control. This is covenantal covering. This is love in strength. This is divine architecture.

I. The Principle of Male Guardianship: Built into Creation

From the beginning, woman was not made to stand alone. She was not made to roam or lead or govern herself. She was made from man, for man, and under man.

“Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.”
— 1 Corinthians 11:9

She was brought to him — not released into independence. From her creation in Eden to her bearing of children, she is defined relationally, vocationally, and spiritually by the man she is given to. And what is the husband’s role in this order? To protect, guard, and govern.

When Adam failed to be present, when he let the serpent speak to Eve unobserved, unchecked, unchallenged, sin entered the world. Eve should not have been alone. She should not have been speaking with another. She should have been with her head, under his watch, in his presence.

The lesson is eternal: when the woman wanders, the serpent speaks.

II. Scriptural Pattern: Women Are to Remain Within the Household Sphere

“That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,
To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.”
— Titus 2:4–5

The Word of God is clear: young women are to be keepers at home — not travelers, not social butterflies, not independent agents.

The Greek phrase here translated “keepers at home” (oikourous) literally means house-guardians — implying not only physical location but focus and commitment. The woman’s realm is the home. Her loyalty is to the household. Her physical and relational movement is to be governed by her husband’s will, not her own.

When Rebekah became Isaac’s wife, she was brought into his tent (Genesis 24:67). When Ruth followed Naomi, she did not operate alone in the fields — Boaz specifically charged the men not to touch her, and the servant supervised her gleaning (Ruth 2:8–9).

In no case in Scripture do we see godly women going about alone, forging their own connections, or initiating private relationships — especially not with men. Where that occurs, disaster follows.

Think of Dinah, the daughter of Jacob.

“And Dinah… went out to see the daughters of the land.”
— Genesis 34:1

This small act of independence — “just going out” — led to her defilement by Shechem and the eventual bloodshed of the entire city. Dinah should not have gone out. She should have been kept. She should have remained under the eye of her father and brothers. But she left the walls of order, and chaos followed.

III. Communication Is Presence — The Husband Must Be Included

In our modern digital age, we must understand that communication is presence. Texting, messaging, and private conversations with others — even family and friends — carry the same spiritual risks as physical absence.

Just as a wife should not be wandering the streets without her husband, so too should she not be carrying on private messages, unchecked emotional exchanges, or long conversations without his oversight.

“Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak… and if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home.”
— 1 Corinthians 14:34–35

Though this instruction concerns public worship, it reflects a broader principle: when a woman desires to speak or ask, she is to go through her husband. Not pastors, not friends, not family. Her voice is heard through him. He is her covering.

This extends to online platforms, phone calls, and texts. No communication should be shielded from her husband. There is no righteous secrecy in marriage. Her husband must have unfettered access to all messages, all social media, all points of contact.

Why? Because Eve speaks to the serpent in the absence of Adam.

It begins with “harmless” conversation. It ends in ruin.

IV. Historical Witness: Women Were Kept and Guarded

Throughout church history and in nearly every righteous civilization, women were not allowed to come and go freely. Their movements were tied to their husbands or fathers. This was not oppression. It was protection — and it was honored.

  • In ancient Israel, women were generally only seen in public under the oversight of their male head.
  • In early Christian society, it was scandalous for a woman to speak to men alone or appear in public without headcovering and male escort.
  • During the Reformation, the role of the wife was renewed as “lady of the house,” not “citizen of the world.” Her place was the hearth, not the marketplace.
  • In Puritan England and Colonial America, godly homes required the wife to remain within the sphere of the household, her communications under her husband’s watch.

It was only with the rise of Enlightenment humanism, feminism, and industrial capitalism that the idea of a “free-roaming woman” took root — a departure that has led to divorce, adultery, rebellion, and societal collapse.

Freedom outside of God’s order is not liberty — it is lawlessness.

V. Theology of Dominion: The Husband Is Governor Over His Wife’s Movements

The man is king and priest of his home — but he is also governor.

“Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.”
— Ephesians 5:22

Submission is not partial. It does not pause when the husband is not physically present. It does not cease in online spaces. The wife’s will is not her own. Her body, her words, her footsteps, and her affiliations are all under the jurisdiction of her lord.

“Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well.”
— 1 Peter 3:6

What would it look like today for a woman to call her husband “lord”? It would look like her not texting others without him reading it. Not going to the store without his knowing. Not receiving counsel or comfort from her mother, sister, or friend before seeking his voice.

This is not insecurity — it is the very essence of covenantal fidelity.

A wife does not exist as an individual in the modern sense. She is one flesh with her husband. Her identity is derived. Her decisions are derivative. Her presence is his presence, and when he is not there physically, his authority must be spiritually and functionally present.

VI. Warnings from the Collapse of Female Guarding

The fruits of female autonomy are rotting on the tree. Consider what happens when wives wander without oversight:

  1. Adultery begins with unguarded access.
    The woman who flirts emotionally with a coworker, chats late at night online, or meets someone “just to talk” has already left her head. The serpent has entered the garden.
  2. Family bonds erode.
    Wives who retain secret friendships with relatives — often undermining their husbands — divide households. This is how mothers-in-law gain access, how sisters plant doubts, how rebellious daughters spread infection.
  3. Her loyalty fractures.
    If a wife can speak freely with others, apart from her husband, she will eventually serve two masters. Her ears will bend toward others. Her thoughts will be split. Her spirit will drift.
  4. The household loses its wall.
    Proverbs says a woman who does not remain at home is like a city broken down without walls (cf. Proverbs 25:28). The strength of the home lies in the guardedness of the wife.

VII. But What About Emergencies, Ministry, and Hospitality?

Some may ask, “Is it always wrong for a woman to leave the house alone?” Not necessarily. There are times when a wife may go about — but it must always be:

  • With her husband’s explicit blessing,
  • For a clearly defined purpose,
  • Within a fixed time and covered accountability,
  • And with a heart that longs to return home.

Just as a soldier may leave the walls of the city on assignment but not in desertion, so too may a wife step outside for a season — but never as a wanderer.

And ministry? Hospitality? These, too, are under his governance. The wife does not entertain others, serve others, or engage others apart from her lord’s knowledge and participation. Even the Proverbs 31 woman — often misquoted to justify female independence — acts within the sphere of her husband’s trust, “The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her” (Proverbs 31:11).

Her strength is not in autonomy — it is in order.

VIII. A Word to Wives: Your Safety Is in His Covering

Dear daughter of Zion, understand this: your husband’s watchfulness is not a prison — it is a fortress. His presence, his eyes, his hand, his access — these are your security. They are not limits to resist. They are gifts to embrace.

“He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust.”
— Psalm 91:4

This is the image of godly headship. A protective, holy presence. Like Boaz to Ruth. Like Abraham to Sarah. Like Christ to the Church.

The moment you desire independence, secrecy, or “space,” the serpent is already whispering. Stay within the wall. Delight in your covering. Let no message, no call, no visit, no outing escape your husband’s view. Your purity depends on it.

IX. Let the Great Order Be Restored

We are not called to conform. We are called to rebuild the ancient ruins. To restore the old paths. To reestablish the boundaries our fathers once set. The principle of female guarding — of the wife never being alone or unaccounted for — is not a minor tradition. It is a foundation stone.

“Remove not the ancient landmark, which thy fathers have set.”
— Proverbs 22:28

The Great Order demands it. The war on Christian civilization will not be won with partial obedience. Let our homes be fortified. Let our wives be shielded. Let our daughters be trained to love the presence and protection of their future heads.

We do not need more free-roaming women. We need kept women. Covenant women. Covered women.

Conclusion: The Woman Shall Not Go Out Alone

Let it be said without apology: A wife has no righteous business outside her husband’s knowledge, covering, and presence. She is not to go out alone. She is not to communicate alone. Her life is not her own — it is bound to the man God gave her, as his helpmeet, under his governance.

This is not bondage. It is glory.

This is not weakness. It is honor.

This is not patriarchy gone too far. It is patriarchy finally applied.

Let the home be guarded. Let the wife be covered. Let the serpent find no opportunity.

Let the Great Order rise.

Bold Foundations for Biblical Patriarchy, Masculinity, and Household Dominion

> “If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?”

— Psalm 11:3

We stand at the precipice of a collapsing world. The nations rage, the families crumble, the church is compromised, and the people groan under the weight of disorder. Men are passive, women are rebellious and children are untamed. The covenantal design of God’s order has been all but forgotten.

Yet from the ashes, a trumpet has sounded. A clarion call not of man’s wisdom but of divine truth — bold, ancient, and uncompromising.

That trumpet is The Great Order.

This book is not merely a work of writing. It is not a collection of random thoughts. It is a declaration. One forged through the fires of spiritual warfare, personal experience, obedience, and relentless pursuit of the Kingdom of God.

And now, by the providence and grace of the Most High, it is almost here.

A Work Birthed in Fire and Revelation

There are books that entertain, books that educate and books that simply pass the time. The Great Order is none of these. This is not a journalistic commentary on the state of the culture. This is not a casual opinion piece about the family.

This is a blueprint for dominion!

Every word in this book has been wrought through struggle, failure and triumph. Each sentence has been borne through prayer, sharpened through Scripture, and written through conviction. I did not merely choose to write this book, I was compelled, burdened and gripped by the Spirit of God with a vision too weighty to ignore.

> “The word of the Lord was in my heart as a burning fire shut up in my bones…”

— Jeremiah 20:9

I have lived these words, while often failing. I have been humbled by them, corrected by them, and built by them. They were not written in an ivory tower but forged in the trenches of real fatherhood, real household government, and real spiritual war. The Great Order is not theoretical, it is incarnational. It is truth that has been lived, tested, and proven by patriarchs since the beginning of written history. 

This book has not been filtered for cultural acceptance. It has not been softened for fragile ears. It is a sword, a plumbline, a trumpet blast for men to rise, women to embrace sacred roles, and families to become embassies of heaven.

 Why This Book Is a Threat to the World and a Balm for the Faithful

The world hates order, it mocks patriarchy, it despises submission and tears down hierarchy. This is no accident, Satan’s war has always been against God’s design. At the heart of that design is the household, governed by man, under Christ, filled with fruitful labor, and advancing the Kingdom through generations.

The Great Order is a threat to every demonic stronghold because it restores the very structure the enemy fears most,the Biblical family.

But this book is more than just a rebuke of the present. It is a balm for the faithful, a comfort to the remnant, a light to those wandering in the darkness of feminism, fatherlessness, and confusion. Many have felt the stirrings in their soul that things are not right, that the modern way is broken and that there must be more.

This book puts language to what the Spirit of God has already whispered in many hearts. It is a framework, a vocabulary,a standard.

In a generation that knows the truth instinctively but lacks the words to defend or articulate it, The Great Order gives voice to the righteous yearning buried in every God-fearing man and woman. It bridges the gap between conviction and communication, between the groaning of the soul and the clarity of truth.

Truths We Know But Cannot Articulate — Until Now

There are times when a man knows something is wrong, even though he cannot explain it. He sees a woman preach, and something in him recoils. He watches a child disobey his mother, and he feels disgust, he sees a home led by a career-focused wife and feels instinctively — this is disorder.

But if pressed, he cannot explain it. He cannot defend it, he cannot express it to his wife, to his children, to his church, to his peers. The conscience bears witness to God’s design. But the vocabulary has been stolen.

This is the plight of our generations, men and women raised without the theological framework or historical wisdom to articulate what they sense in their souls. We know disorder when we see it. We feel its destruction, but we have been robbed of the language to name it, and the courage to confront and profess it.

The Great Order restores that language. It articulates what you’ve always known, it puts steel in your spine and precision in your mouth. It enables fathers to teach their sons, it enables husbands to lead their wives, and enables shepherds to guard the flock. This book is not abstract,  it is accessible, practical, and potent.

It accomplishes the seemingly impossible: giving form to formless conviction, giving words to what was once only felt. It is the bridge between inner clarity and external boldness.

IV. The Structure of the Great Order: A Manual for Reconstruction

This is not a book of feelings. It is not a devotional. It is a war manual.

The Great Order is organized into chapters that walk step-by-step through the rebuilding of Christian civilization:

Biblical Patriarchy — restoring God’s government in the home.

Masculinity — dominion, not indulgence; strength through sacrifice.

Christian Polygyny — a weapon of revival and fruitfulness.

The Role of Women — sacred submission, homemaking, and generational building.

Family Government — fathers as kings, priests, and judges.

Household Economy — families as productive units, not consumers.

Education — indoctrinating children in righteousness.

Resistance — rejecting feminism, statism, and cultural apostasy.

The Church and the Household — integrating worship and dominion.

It doesn’t simply teach why we must return to Biblical order, it shows how. It is intensely practical, designed to be implemented. The principles in this book already form the foundation of households that have rejected compromise and chosen to live by the Law of God.

The Fruit of the Great Order: Revival, Peace, and Restoration

Revival will not come from stadiums, celebrity pastors, or emotional altar calls.

Revival begins at the dinner table!

It begins when a man takes his place as head of his home. When a woman repents of autonomy and embraces her role with joy. When children are trained in obedience, fear of God, and discipline. When homes become churches, the Sabbath is kept, and Scripture governs life.

The Great Order is not just about family. It is about national restoration.This book declares what few are willing to say: that peace cannot come until patriarchy is restored. That harmony cannot come until hierarchy is obeyed. That blessing cannot come until the household is ruled by God’s order.

This is not nostalgia, politics, or moralism, this is covenantal. When men obey the order of heaven, the result is peace on earth.

Children flourish.

Wives rejoice.

Men lead.

The poor are cared for.

The land is healed.

The nations tremble.

This is how we rebuild civilization — not by electing the right leaders, but by raising them in our homes.

 A Book for the Centuries to come:

The world writes books for entertainment, and the church writes books to sell but The Great Order was written to last, to stand the test of time.

This is not a trending topic, but a timeless template. It will be as relevant in five hundred years as it is today, because it is built on eternal truth. As long as the Word of God stands — and it will stand forever, this book will be a plumbline for the faithful.

When governments fall, the households guided by this book will remain!

When seminaries apostatize, the sons trained by this book will become shepherds!

When feminism collapses, the daughters raised by this book will rebuild homes!

The Great Order is not a one-generation manual. It is a multi-generational standard. It is written to be passed from father to son, from elder to disciple, from patriarch to patriarch. It is the blueprint for God’s covenant people to restore the ancient paths (Jeremiah 6:16). This book will outlast trends. It will outlast empires. Because it is built on the Rock.

Who This Book Is For

This book is not for everyone. It is not for cowards. It is not for cultural Christians. It is not for women who want to control men or men who fear responsibility.

This book is for fathers ready to rule their homes, wives ready to be crowned with honor, 

sons ready to build legacies, daughters ready to prepare for homemaking. It is for shepherds ready to reform their flocks, remnant believers ready to live counter-culturally, and seekers ready to repent and submit to God’s order.

If you are tired of the lies. If you know there’s more. If you feel the conviction but lack the clarity. If you want to plant trees under whose shade your great-grandchildren will sit — then this book is for you.

What to Expect in the Coming Release

The release of The Great Order will be more than a publication. It will be a launch. A declaration of war. A rallying point for households across the earth who are tired of compromise and ready to build.

The book will be released in softcover initially, with hardcover, audiobook, and digital formats planned for the near future. This is more than a book. It is a movement.

The website LordRedbeard.com will serve as the command center — featuring articles, updates, resources, and an ever-growing library or resources for covenant households.

Let the Patriarchs Rise

We are not waiting for revival, we are building it. We are not waiting for the world to wake up, we are establishing households that shine as light in the darkness. We are not waiting for permission, we have a mandate.

God is raising up a remnant of men — fathers, brothers, sons — who will not bow to Baal. They will not kneel to feminism, and will not compromise with the world.

They will build, marry, multiply and they will reign!

And when the Lord returns, He will find not a scattered, weak, feminized people — but an ordered people. A governed people. A glorious bride.

The Great Order is the trumpet.

The time for excuses is over.

Let the patriarchs rise.

Let the women rejoice in their submission and glory.

Let the children be trained as arrows.

Let the households become kingdoms.

Let the dominion begin.

Are you ready?

The Great Order is coming, get your house ready, train your sons, teach your daughters, insure that your name is found among the builders!

Prepare your household, clear your calendar, sharpen your mind and fortify your heart.

The time has come.

The standard has been raised.

The restoration has begun.

Let the Great Order rise and be restored!

Soli Deo Gloria.

Why a Woman Must Always Be Under Headship: The Unbreakable Design of God

No comments

Modern Christianity has adopted many lies, but none more destructive than the idea that a woman can—and should—be autonomous. The culture prizes the “independent woman.” The church parrots the same mantra in softer tones. But Scripture knows nothing of this. God never created woman to stand alone. She was made for order, and she flourishes under headship.

A woman is required by God to be under male authority at all times—from her father’s house, to her husband’s house, and in some cases under the governance of church elders. This is not optional. It is not conditional. It is not a matter of preference. It is a covenantal design, etched into creation and enforced by divine command.

“But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man…”
— 1 Corinthians 11:3

This structure is not cultural—it is creational. It is not bondage—it is blessing. And when it is violated, chaos, heartbreak, and destruction follow.

I. Headship in Creation: Woman Was Made for the Man

We must begin where God begins: in Genesis. Adam was made first, formed from the dust by the breath of God. He was given a mission—to take dominion. But God said, “It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.” (Genesis 2:18)

The woman was not made as a co-leader. She was not designed as an independent entity to explore her identity. She was made for the man, from the man, and to the man.

“For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man. Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.”
— 1 Corinthians 11:8–9

This is the creation order, and it never changes. A woman, by nature and design, must be under the loving rule of godly headship. When she is, she is protected, fruitful, and secure. When she is not, she is vulnerable, unstable, and easy prey for deception.

This is not conjecture. This is exactly what happened in Eden.

II. The Fall: What Happens When Headship Is Abandoned

In Genesis 3, the serpent bypassed the man and went to the woman. He inverted God’s order. And Adam, instead of protecting and ruling, abdicated his role. Eve was deceived. Adam was derelict. And humanity fell.

“And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.”
— 1 Timothy 2:14

This is not an insult to women—it is a divine warning. When a woman steps outside of headship, she is in danger. When a man steps away from authority, he invites judgment.

Headship is not a human construct. It is a spiritual defense system, and when it is removed, the home collapses, the culture deteriorates, and the church weakens.

III. A Woman’s Three Primary Headships

Biblically, a woman is to be under male authority throughout the entire course of her life:

1. The Father

“And ye shall teach them your children, speaking of them when thou sittest in thine house…”
— Deuteronomy 11:19

From birth, a girl is under the governance of her father. He is to train her, protect her, and guard her purity. He is responsible to keep her from danger—whether moral, spiritual, or relational.

In Numbers 30, God gives laws governing the vows of women. If a daughter makes a vow and her father hears it and disallows it, the vow is nullified. Why? Because she is under his jurisdiction.

“If a woman also vow a vow unto the Lord, and bind herself by a bond… being in her father’s house… and her father disallow her… then shall the Lord forgive her.”
— Numbers 30:3–5

This is legal headship. Fathers are not optional. They are God’s appointed guardians for daughters.

2. The Husband

“Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife…”
— Ephesians 5:22–23

When a woman marries, headship passes from father to husband. She is no longer her father’s responsibility. She becomes her husband’s charge, and she is to obey him as the church obeys Christ.

“Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord.”
— 1 Peter 3:6

This is not poetic—it is prescriptive. A woman does not lose value under authority—she gains security, direction, and honor.

3. The Eldership (in cases of widowhood, orphanhood, etc.)

When a woman has no husband and no father, she is not to drift alone. She comes under the elders of the church, the patriarchs of the community.

“Honour widows that are widows indeed… Let not a widow be taken into the number under threescore years old, having been the wife of one man…”
— 1 Timothy 5:3–9

The early church had rules and order for widows, indicating that even in their singleness, they were not to function independently. They were under the governance of the patriarchal church, and the younger widows were exhorted to remarry (1 Timothy 5:14).

IV. The Dangers of Female Autonomy

When women are not under headship, the results are devastating:

  • Sexual sin abounds. Young women without oversight are easy prey for seduction and fornication.
  • Feminism takes root. Women begin to believe they are their own authority.
  • Children are raised fatherless. Single mothers often reject correction and multiply generational disorder.
  • Churches are disrupted. Uncovered women bring emotional chaos and spiritual confusion.

“Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!”
— Isaiah 5:21

Headship is not oppression. It is protection. It keeps a woman from the deceit of Satan and the judgment of God.

V. What About Special Cases?

1. The Divorced Woman

Divorce does not grant a woman independence. It places her in a vulnerable state—one that Scripture addresses soberly. If the divorce was lawful (on grounds of adultery or abandonment by an unbeliever—Matthew 5:32, 1 Corinthians 7:15), she may remain unmarried or be reconciled to her husband. But she is not now a “free agent.”

She should:

  • Come under patriarchal church leadership for spiritual covering.
  • Pursue re-marriage if it is biblically permitted.
  • Raise children in submission to godly counsel.

She is not head of her house. If she has sons, they must be trained under male discipleship. If she has daughters, they must be shielded from repeating her mistakes.

2. The Widow

The widow, too, is to be protected by the church. Paul instructs that young widows should marry (1 Timothy 5:14). Why? Because a woman left uncovered will be drawn into idleness, gossip, and temptation (v. 13).

Older widows are to be honored (1 Timothy 5:3), but they are still subject to the church’s order. They may not remarry. But they may disciple younger women (Titus 2:3–5), and must maintain spiritual covering and accountability.

3. The Orphaned or Unmarried Daughter of a Non-Christian Home

A young woman raised outside of the faith must not interpret her background as justification for independence. If her father is unbelieving, she must:

  • Submit under spiritual fathers—church elders, pastors, or godly men in the community.
  • Pursue biblical courtship under spiritual authority—not casual dating or autonomy.
  • Be adopted into the household of God, where she is no longer a lone sheep but part of a covenant flock.

Even in pagan cultures, daughters were understood to belong to their fathers until given in marriage. The modern Western idea that a woman is “on her own” at 18 is rebellion disguised as liberty.

VI. Historical Witness

Throughout Church history, the principle of continuous female headship was unquestioned:

  • In early Israel, a daughter’s virginity was the father’s responsibility (Deuteronomy 22:13–21).
  • In medieval Christendom, daughters could not marry without paternal approval, and widows were overseen by church authorities.
  • Reformers like John Calvin and Martin Luther emphasized the father’s authority in arranging godly marriages and condemned female independence as prideful and disorderly.
  • Puritan families in early America treated daughters as part of the household government until they were transferred in marriage.

It is only in recent history, with the rise of Enlightenment individualism and second-wave feminism, that we see the normalization of female autonomy, a disaster for faith, family, and civilization.

VII. The Blessing of Headship

When a woman is properly covered by male headship, the result is fruitfulness, peace, and joy.

  • She does not carry the burden of spiritual leadership.
  • She is defended from predators and wolves.
  • She is directed in righteousness.
  • She is shielded from emotional instability and deception.
  • She glorifies God by knowing her place—and delighting in it.

This is not humiliation—it is holy order. It is not shameful—it is sacred.

“Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.”
— 1 Timothy 2:11

This kind of subjection brings honor, protection, and praise. A woman who abides under headship is a builder of nations, a nurturer of kings, and a daughter of Sarah.

Conclusion: Always Covered, Always Blessed

The lie of female autonomy has destroyed generations. It has produced bitterness, barrenness, fatherlessness, and faithlessness. But the Lord calls women back, not to self-rule, but to submission.

Whether a daughter, a wife, a widow, or a woman rescued from the ruins of rebellion, every godly woman must be under righteous headship at all times.

Fathers, cover your daughters.
Husbands, lead your wives.
Elders, shepherd the uncovered.
And women, rejoice to be ruled.

You were not made to be alone. You were made to be covered.
And under that covering, you will be blessed, fruitful, protected, and glorified.

Let the feminists rage.
Let the church grow bold.
Let the Great Order be restored—one household at a time.

Cats Instead of Children: The Consequences of Careerism

No comments

In the modern West, a striking symbol of cultural inversion is the image of the single, professional woman cradling a cat rather than a child. It’s not merely a humorous meme—it’s a sociological reality that reflects a deep shift in values, priorities, and understanding of womanhood.

The Career as a New Identity

For much of human history, a woman’s primary domain was the household—a place of immense dignity, productivity, and influence. She nurtured life, shaped souls, and stewarded the future of her lineage. But with the rise of feminism and the industrial-technocratic model of life, women were told that their value could only be found outside the home. They were sold the idea that true fulfillment comes through career advancement, salary increases, and corporate achievements.

In this paradigm, children—especially young ones—are seen not as blessings, but as burdens. They are interruptions to productivity, threats to “freedom,” and liabilities to a woman’s upward mobility. The result? Delayed marriage, widespread infertility, and plummeting birthrates. Instead of lullabies, the halls of modern apartments echo with the meows of feline companions.

Cats Require No Sacrifice

A child requires immense sacrifice. Sleepless nights, constant attention, financial commitment, and the long, slow work of shaping another soul. It demands laying down one’s life daily. But a cat is convenient. Feed it, give it a litter box, and carry on with your life. It offers companionship without the demand of legacy. It scratches the emotional itch without requiring covenant or continuity.

This trade—life for lifestyle—is perhaps the clearest indictment of modern womanhood. In choosing cats over children, many have traded motherhood for momentary comfort. But cats don’t carry on a name. They don’t build households. They don’t honor their mother in old age or bear grandchildren.

The Feminist Promise Was a Lie

Feminism promised women “choice”—but in practice, it shamed traditional motherhood and elevated careerism as the only path to worth. The woman who chooses to bear many children, keep a home, and support her husband is often mocked as “wasting her potential.” Meanwhile, the woman who climbs the corporate ladder, drinks wine alone, and has a cat to come home to is celebrated by media as empowered.

But empowerment has come at a steep cost. Millions of women now find themselves in their 30s and 40s—lonely, childless, and deeply unfulfilled. Their fertility has faded, their relationships have withered, and their youth has been spent chasing the approval of bosses who replaced them with younger workers without a second thought.

A Culture Without Children Is a Dying Culture

When women stop having children, a nation stops having a future. The cat-as-child phenomenon is not just a personal tragedy—it’s a civilizational crisis. No generation can continue if its women reject the role of life-bearer. The womb, once seen as sacred, is now suppressed through pills, surgeries, and ideologies. But biology doesn’t bend to ideology. A woman’s body longs to nurture life, and when that drive is denied, it finds twisted replacements—whether through animals, activism, or artificial distractions.

The Path Back: Restoring the Dignity of Womanhood

The answer is not to shame women, but to call them back to glory. True femininity is not found in boardrooms or cubicles—it is found in the embrace of a newborn, the aroma of bread in the oven, the warmth of a family shaped by a wise and joyful mother. Careers can be replaced; children cannot. Promotions are temporary; legacy is eternal.

A godly woman does not need to prove herself by mimicking men. She flourishes in her God-given role as life-giver, nurturer, and queen of the home. This is not oppression. It is sacred dominion.

Irish Slave Trade

9 Comments

They came as slaves; vast human cargo transported on tall British ships bound for the Americas. They were shipped by the hundreds of thousands and included men, women, and even the youngest of children.

Whenever they rebelled or even disobeyed an order, they were punished in the harshest ways. Slave owners would hang their human property by their hands and set their hands or feet on fire as one form of punishment. They were burned alive and had their heads placed on pikes in the marketplace as a warning to other captives.

We don’t really need to go through all of the gory details, do we? We know all too well the atrocities of the African slave trade.

But, are we talking about African slavery? King James II and Charles I also led a continued effort to enslave the Irish. Britain’s famed Oliver Cromwell furthered this practice of dehumanizing one’s next door neighbor.

The Irish slave trade began when 30,000 Irish prisoners were sold as slaves to the New World. The King James I Proclamation of 1625 required Irish political prisoners be sent overseas and sold to English settlers in the West Indies. By the mid 1600s, the Irish were the main slaves sold to Antigua and Montserrat. At that time, 70% of the total population of Montserrat were Irish slaves.

Ireland quickly became the biggest source of human livestock for English merchants. The majority of the early slaves to the New World were actually white.

From 1641 to 1652, over 500,000 Irish were killed by the English and another 300,000 were sold as slaves. Ireland’s population fell from about 1,500,000 to 600,000 in one single decade. Families were ripped apart as the British did not allow Irish dads to take their wives and children with them across the Atlantic. This led to a helpless population of homeless women and children. Britain’s solution was to auction them off as well.

In 1641, Ireland’s population was 1,466,000 and in 1652, 616,000. According to Sir William Petty, 850,000 were wasted by the sword, plague, famine, hardship and banishment during the Confederation War 1641-1652. At the end of the war, vast numbers of Irish men, women and children were forcibly transported to the American colonies by the English government.(7) These people were rounded up like cattle, and, as Prendergast reports on Thurloe’s State Papers(8) (Pub. London, 1742), “In clearing the ground for the adventurers and soldiers (the English capitalists of that day)… To be transported to Barbados and the English plantations in America. It was a measure beneficial to Ireland, which was thus relieved of a population that might trouble the planters; it was a benefit to the people removed, which might thus be made English and Christians … a great benefit to the West India sugar planters, who desired men and boys for their bondsmen, and the women and Irish girls… To solace them.”(9)

J. Williams provides additional evidence of the attitude of the English government towards the Irish in an English law of June 26, 1657: “Those who fail to transplant themselves into Connaught (Ireland’s Western Province) or (County) Clare within six months… Shall be attained of high treason… Are to be sent into America or some other parts beyond the seas…”(10) Those thus banished who return are to “suffer the pains of death as felons by virtue of this act, without benefit of Clergy.”(11)

The following are but a few of the numerous references to those Irish transported against their will between 1651 and 1660.

Emmet asserts that during this time, more that

“100,000 young children who were orphans or had been taken from their Catholic parents, were sent abroad into slavery in the West Indies, Virginia and New England, that they might lose their faith and all knowledge of their nationality, for in most instances even their names were changed… Moreover, the contemporary writers assert between 20,000 and 30,000 men and women who were taken prisoner were sold in the American colonie as slaves, with no respect to their former station in life.”(12)

Dunn claims in Barbados the Irish Catholics constituted the largest block of servants on the island.(13) Higham estimated that in 1652 Barbados had absorbed no less than 12,000 of these political prisoners.(14) E. Williams reports: “In 1656 Cromwell’s Council of State voted that 1,000 Irish girls and 1,000 Irish young men be sent to Jamaica.”(15) Smith declares: “it is impossible to say how many shiploads of unhappy Irish were dispatched to America by the English government,” and “no mention of such shipments would be very likely to appear in the State Papers… They must have been very considerable in number.”(16)

Estimates vary between 80,000 and 130,000 regarding the amount of Irish sent into slavery in America and the West Indies during the years of 1651 – 1660: Prendergast says 80,000(17); Boudin 100,000(18); Emmet 120,000 to 130,000(19); Lingard 60,000 up until 1656(20); and Condon estimates “the number of Irish transported to the British colonies in America from 1651 – 1660 exceeded the total number of their inhabitants at that period, a fact which ought not to be lost sight of by those who undertake to estimate the strength of the Celtic element in this nation…”(21)

It is impossible to ascertain the exact number of those unfortunate victims of English injustice during this period, but we do know the amount was massive. Even though the figures given above are but estimates, they are estimates from eminent historians.

The flow of the Irish to the American colonies throughout the remainder of the 17th century was large and continuous, but not nearly as massive as between 1651 and 1660. Some of the many statements by historians give evidence of this Irish tide. Higham reports that in 1664 the Irish took the place of the French on St. Bartholomew’s.(22) Smith claims that during the four years leading up to 1675, already 500 Irish servants were brought to Jamaica by ships from Bristol, England that stopped in Ireland for provisions.(23) During 1680 on the Leeward Islands, Dunn posits: “with so many Irish Catholic servants and farmers… The English planters became obsessed with the fear of popery.”(24) Dunn also states that in Jamaica in 1685 the 2nd Duke of Aberlmarle, after his appointment by James II, a Catholic, mustered his chief support from the Irish Catholic small planters and servants and that the indentured servants who constituted the island militia were mainly Irish Catholic.(25) In reporting on Father Garganel’s statements, Lenihan claims: “in 1699 Father Garganel, S.J., Superior of the island of Martinique, asked for one or two Irish Fathers for that and the neighboring isles which were ‘fill of Irish’ for every year shiploads of men, boys and girls, partly crimped, partly carried off by main force for the purposes of slave trade, are conveyed by the English from Ireland.”(26)

During the 1650s, over 100,000 Irish children between the ages of 10 and 14 were taken from their parents and sold as slaves in the West Indies, Virginia and New England. In this decade, 52,000 Irish (mostly women and children) were sold to Barbados and Virginia. Another 30,000 Irish men and women were also transported and sold to the highest bidder. In 1656, Cromwell ordered that 2000 Irish children be taken to Jamaica and sold as slaves to English settlers.

Many people today will avoid calling the Irish slaves what they truly were: Slaves. They’ll come up with terms like “Indentured Servants” to describe what occurred to the Irish. However, in most cases from the 17th and 18th centuries, Irish slaves were nothing more than human cattle.

As an example, the African slave trade was just beginning during this same period. It is well recorded that African slaves, not tainted with the stain of the hated Catholic theology and more expensive to purchase, were often treated far better than their Irish counterparts.

African slaves were very expensive during the late 1600s (50 Sterling). Irish slaves came cheap (no more than 5 Sterling). If a planter whipped or branded or beat an Irish slave to death, it was never a crime. A death was a monetary setback, but far cheaper than killing a more expensive African. The English masters quickly began breeding the Irish women for both their own personal pleasure and for greater profit. Children of slaves were themselves slaves, which increased the size of the master’s free workforce. Even if an Irish woman somehow obtained her freedom, her kids would remain slaves of her master. Thus, Irish moms, even with this new found emancipation, would seldom abandon their kids and would remain in servitude.

In time, the English thought of a better way to use these women (in many cases, girls as young as 12) to increase their market share: The settlers began to breed Irish women and girls with African men to produce slaves with a distinct complexion. These new “mulatto” slaves has a higher intelligence level than that of African slaves, brought a higher price than Irish livestock and, likewise, enabled the settlers to save money rather than purchase new African slaves. This practice of interbreeding Irish females with African men went on for several decades and was so widespread that, in 1681, legislation was passed “forbidding the practice of mating Irish slave women to African slave men for the purpose of producing slaves for sale.” In short, it was stopped only because it interfered with the profits of a large slave transport company.

England continued to ship tens of thousands of Irish slaves for more than a century. Records state that, after the 1798 Irish Rebellion, thousands of Irish slaves were sold to both America and Australia. There were horrible abuses of both African and Irish captives. One British ship even dumped 1,302 slaves into the Atlantic Ocean because the crew was low on food.

There is little question that the Irish experienced the horrors of slavery much more in the 17th Century than the Africans did. There is, also, very little question that those brown, tanned faces you witness in your travels to the West Indies are very likely a combination of African and Irish ancestry. In 1839, Britain finally decided on its own to end its participation in Satan’s highway to hell and stopped transporting slaves. While their decision did not stop pirates from doing what they desired, the new law slowly concluded this particular chapter of nightmarish Irish misery.

But, if anyone, black or white, believes that slavery was only an African experience, then they’ve got it completely wrong. Irish slavery is a subject worth remembering, researching and not erasing from our memories.

But, where are our public (and PRIVATE) schools???? Where are the history books? Why is it so seldom discussed?

Do the memories of hundreds of thousands of Irish victims merit more than a mention from an unknown writer? Or is their story to be one that their English pirates intended: To (unlike the African book) have the Irish story utterly and completely disappear as if it never happened.

None of the Irish victims ever made it back to their homeland to describe their ordeal. These are the lost slaves; the ones that time and biased history books conveniently forgot.
