8 hate attacks on traditional values of a Christian marriage: 4/8- Feminism & Divorce

In this 4th of an octuple of sermons on 8 hate attacks against the traditional values of Christian marriage, Gavin addresses the 5th issue of feminism attacking Biblically sound patriarchal values; and the 6th issue of easy divorce attacking Christ's words of Matt. 19:9, "Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery." Gavin considers the teaching of I Cor. 11:3, "But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God;" with reference to Gen. 1:26-28, saying that the Trinitarian image of God is found in the natural order of man, woman, & children. Thus even as there is equality in the Divinity of the three Divine Persons (John 5:18;10:30; Philp. 2:6; I John 5:7), but order evident in e.g. the very names "Father" & "Son" so that e.g. the Father sent the Son into the world (John 3:16; I John 4:10); so too there is an equality in the human worth & value of the man, woman, & children, but also patriarchal order, so that the woman should obey her husband (I Peter 3:1,6), & the children obey their parents (Eph. 6:1). Since patriarchal structures are based in the Creation & the Fall (Gen. 1-3; I Cor. 11:8,9,14; I Tim. 2:8-3:13), they transcend the cultural values of the day & apply more generally to church government & society. Gavin also considers the Type 2 Secular State's attack on the Biblical divorce provisions of Deut. 24:1-4 as understood for Christian marriage through such passages as Matt. 5:32;19:9; I Cor. 7:15; with the rise of easy "at pleasure" or "no fault" divorce in the Western World e.g. the UK (1971) & Australia (1975).
