How are women and men a vital part of God’s restoration project? Considering how the final chapters of Scripture paint a prophetic picture of God’s restored creation and ultimate restoration…
Kenny InnesGuestAmyHostAmen.
What an inspiring and compelling answer.
And I love what you're sharing there about the undoing of the thread.
But then I think everything you've just shared just paints such a picture of hope, but it's almost like that typical analogy of that paint by numbers-
... and that finally John is starting to piece together this overarching story, which is, of course, on the arc of the whole of scripture, which just says, "Finally, this is what it looks like." So-
... it's such, it's such a picture of hope.
I absolutely love how you've answered that.
And you also describe women throughout scripture in your blog as prophetic representatives of the age to come.
I love that.
Can you unpack that for us? And maybe you've got examples that particularly stand out to you.
Really what I mean is that although much of the scriptural narrative takes place in patriarchal cultures, there are women who emerge-
Yeah
... as these prophetic signs, that God is transforming this distorted way that men and women have learned to relate to each other.
Mm.
So we see women taking initiative and confronting powers and leading and engaging in battle and prophesying and proclaiming God's truth.
Mm.
And they play pivotal roles in the advancing of God's kingdom throughout the narrative.
One such person that comes to mind, it's an obvious one, and it's been dealt with already in this series, but i- it's Deborah.
Yeah.
The judges throughout exhibit a variety of, like, flaws and self-aggrandizement, but the one shining example of leadership is Deborah.
Amen.
