I was looking to confirm certain doctrinal view of Kathy Keller. Gender roles.<\/p>\n
She wrote a book \"Jesus, Justice, & Gender Roles: A Case for Gender Roles in Ministry\".<\/p>\n
I followed Tim Keller's method of reading reviews instead of the book itself.<\/p>\n
One particular review<\/a>, though from an egalitarian, appears to be quite honest, caught my attention.<\/p>\n The main error the reviewer Marg Mowczko made was that she believes that egalitarian and biblical centeredness can go hand in hand. First, I would clarify that defending injustice to women or upholding a woman's right do not necessarily have anything to do with egalitarian. Egalitarian, by definition is to disregard any differences between women and men. If I were to explain this to a kid, I would say that the egalitarians cannot tell the difference between women and men in general. Yes, very stereo-typical, but that is the definition. Just because one who eats only beef as meat and claims to be vegetarian, does not make one a vegetarian. In that case, the definition of vegetarian for that person has been corrupted. And if everyone redefines vegetarian as such, then they have redefined it obtusely.<\/p>\n So, if I support women's right, I do not identify myself with egalitarianism. Because they do not truly follow the Bible, even though some of them claim to do so. Back to the vegetarian dilemma again.<\/p>\n On 2 Timothy 2:12, the reviewer merely stated that it was hard for her to understand or interpret and implied that no one has an answer for it and those who does are wrong. A signature pride of the egalitarians.<\/p>\n Now, back to Kathy Keller. I was curious because I had some hint of feminism from Kathy Keller. Therefore, I am glad to have read this review on her book because the reviewer honestly declared Keller as being vague.<\/p>\n Conclusion, I would not fully associate Kathy Keller to feminism. But merely confused, based on her interpretation of those gender verses in her book. I need not read her book, I trust this reviewer in this case. For now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I was looking to confirm certain doctrinal view of Kathy Keller. Gender roles.
