CROSSED LEGS MOVEMENT
Thursday, August 28, 2014
As you know, I
get questions and debated, some public, others offline. A good thing as it is
provocative in making me and advisory board think. I, with their help on the
not so obvious, do my best to give answers and solutions from God’s Word.
Other times
responding goes beyond. Often during such situation I throw the question or
debate out to all of you. Yesterday “PS:” being just such an example thereof.
Reading READER’S
DIGEST this week raised such issue.
A 35 mile road
connects the small Columbian village of Barbacaos to civilization. As long as
natives can remember the road has been in such poor condition that it is a half
day travel trip. To no avail, local people had been complaining to the
government for many years.
Finally an
ambulance got stuck resulting in young woman and unborn child dying for lack of
proper medical care.
Last June local
women en bloc, including the village mayor’s wife, joined in a CROSSED LEGS MOVEMENT.
No lovin’ until the road is repaired they said!
Sharing the above
story with male Christians they responded the wives were wrong and presented
the following Scripture to back up their argument,
1Corinthians
[MKJV] 7:1-5 Now concerning what you wrote to me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman. But,
because of the fornications, let each have his own
wife, and let each have her own husband. Let the husband give to the wife
proper kindness, and likewise the wife also to the husband. The wife does not
have authority over her own body, but
the husband. And likewise also the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife. Do not deprive
one another, unless it is with consent
for a time, so that you may give yourselves to fasting and prayer. And come
together again so that Satan does not tempt you for your incontinence.
What do you think
of the Barbacaos women using limb leverage? Can you present other Scripture
that overarches what these men say? EBB4
