Knowledge of the
scriptures is the difference between a woman’s bondage or emancipation.
CROSS-REFERENCES TO MATTHEW 26:6-16
According to Thompson’s
Chain Reference
· Paraphrase
of Thompson’s commentary.
o Personal observations of
how this applies to the Christian woman today.
Proverbs 18:1-24
- The
Christian woman draws out the truth, but does not jump ahead of God to use
it to bring events into motion.
o In our
service to others, us women must rembmer that though God has granted us the
gift of discernment, we cannot bulldoze our way into others’ lives without
their prompting or God’s leading.
Proverbs 28:1-28
- The
Christian woman is not obsessed with being in control, but rather
recognizes when she needs to pass on the baton to a worthy teammate.
o In our
service to others, us woman must pay close attention to the many factors that
weigh in the matter of our abilities. We am limited by our availability
through time, resources, knowledge and health. We need to be willing to
ask for help or suggest a better person for the assignment in these
circumstances.
Jeremiah 5:1-31
- The
Christian woman “looks” for the way that pleases God, and “listens” to His
leading.
o In our
service to others, us women need to be “in tune” with the Word of God in order
to “see” what He wants us to see, and to “hear” what He wants us to hear – in
other words, to have an open mind to Him.
Matthew 13:10-23
- The
Christian woman is not easily distracted by the cares of this world or
what it has to offer.
- In
our service to others, us women should have no need to watch the news,
read the newspaper or listen to the radio, because all that we will be
exposed to is doom, gloom and every type of advertisement that only leads
to corruption. We need to trust our husbands to shield and protect
us from the filth of the world, as God designed for them to do as the
“heads” of our households.
