One might answer that what we’re reading here is simply a reflection of turbulent, violent eras. But all the young girls who have not known man by lying with him keep alive for yourselves.” (Numbers 31:17-18) So you shall purge the evil from your midst, and all Israel shall hear, and fear.” (Deuteronomy 21:18-21) “Now therefore, kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has known man by lying with him. “If a man has a stubborn and rebellious son who will not obey the voice of his father or the voice of his mother, and, though they discipline him, will not listen to them, then his father and his mother shall take hold of him and bring him out to the elders of his city at the gate of the place where he lives, and they shall say to the elders of his city, ‘This our son is stubborn and rebellious he will not obey our voice he is a glutton and a drunkard.’ Then all the men of the city shall stone him to death with stones. I hate reading these verses about stoning disobedient children, recounting commands to kill children in opposing factions, etc. Is it possible that what we’re reading is merely a reflection of the culture back then? I ask this because of the disturbing verses I’ve read in the Old Testament.

I am compelled to my bones by the Holy Spirit – I don’t want to be but I am -to draw attention to the sexism & misogyny that is rampant in segments of the SBC, cloaked by piety & bearing the stench of hypocrisy. This tweet below captures her advocacy against it: In recent years, Moore has used her voice to decry the sexism present in the SBC.

Instead of using their platform to discuss how to help the victims or seek justice, the panelists zeroed in on Moore being a female preacher. The author pointed out that the panel at MacArthur’s celebration ignored the revelations of sexual abuse in the SBC. When I did my research for this article, I found this article by an author on. With her advocacy in mind, understanding the backdrop of the SBC (Southern Baptist Convention) in 2019 makes this whole scandal much uglier.

I love how strongly Beth Moore advocates for bringing awareness to sexual abuse. “Keep your mouth shut or something worse will happen.” Yes.
