Covering the Web: Edition #8

Covering The Web

“Covering the Web” is where we shine the spotlight on content about head covering or complementarianism that we did not produce ourselves. Each edition includes articles, videos, photos, as well as e-book deals relevant to our movement’s mission. Links are not endorsements.

  • MUST READ: The Lies of Feminism (Founders)
    “Some still try to sell the ‘Feminism is the radical notion that women are people’ line. It’s a lie that is somehow both blithe and misleading, but at least it’s short enough to fit in an Instagram post.”
  • The Gospel as Interpretive Key to 1 Corinthians 10:31–11:16: On Christian Worship, Head Coverings, and the Trinity (Themelios/TGC)
    “Paul is not simply correcting the behavior of some of the Corinthian women who were dishonoring their husbands in gathered worship (11:4–6). He wants to bring the gospel, and its characteristic dispositions of dignity, humility, and grace to bear on the way in which all Christians worship.” — Note: This article takes the cultural view but is helpful nonetheless.
  • The Abolition of Men? (CBMW)
    “For it is just this that could reinvigorate American boyhood: a vision of manhood that calls him away from self-indulgence and libertinism, and toward self-possession and discipline, embracing his God-given manliness in the service of right vs. racist wrong, good vs. existentialist evil — the kind of community-protecting, relationship-building, family-forming manhood that must be characterized by virtue.”

The following are a list of limited time e-book deals which are on the topic of biblical manhood and womanhood. If you don’t have a Kindle device, you can install their free reading app on your computer, phone, or tablet. Prices may vary per region.

Re-post • @cassiescorner.shop – “Lord, I offer up this rebel heart So stubborn and so restless from the start I don’t wanna fight You anymore So take this rebel heart and make it Yours Father, I no longer wanna run You’ve broken my resistance with Your love And drowned it underneath the crimson spill So bend this rebel heart unto Your will” I’m not exactly sure why this song hit me so hard as it played on my list today, but it has. It’s made me think of so many instances that after I’ve surrendered to the Father, you feel a peace, and things work out so beautifully. ? Song is; Rebel Heart by Lauren Daigle. Let it play a few times! Have a blessed sabbath, ladies! ❤️? // #headwrap #headcovering #sabbath #shabbatshalom #messianic #headcovering #headcoverings #cassiescornershop

Re-Posted • @_cat_lady_life_ – The little growing guy i have the honour of watching… The one who taught me to be more patient. To be more of a motherly figure even though im not his mom and im not a mom at all (i do get the mommy thing from ppl though ),i still feel that special attachment. He’s taught me to be more responsible. He’s a handful-energetic and very strong little guy,haha, that’s where i ended up sticking the nickname “my crab” to him. I love him to pieces. So glad God chose Nick to be a part of my life. • • • • • • • • • • •#blessed #nanny #lovehim #loveHim #myboy #nannying #nannyworld #LA #OC #lovehimtopieces #photography #life #specialmoments #growingboy #growingup #love

What Did Martin Luther Believe About Head Covering?

Head Covering: Church History Profiles

[Series introduction: This post is part of a series that will examine what certain leaders in church history believed about head covering. Their arguments, choice of language and conclusions should not be misconstrued as an endorsement from us. The purpose of this series is to faithfully show what they believe about covering rather than only selectively quoting the parts we agree with.]

Martin Luther (1483-1546) was a German theologian who was the catalyst behind the Protestant Reformation. He is author of many books, lectures, commentaries and hymns (including “A Mighty Fortress is Our God”). Luther also translated the Bible into German. Today there are more than 73 million Christians who identify with his theology, known as Lutherans.
Martin Luther

On January 15th 1525, Martin Luther preached a message on marriage. In his sermon he said this:

Women, be subject to your husbands as to the Lord, for the husband is the head of the wife” [Eph 5:22-23]. Again to the Colossians in the third chapter [3:18]. Because of this, the wife has not been created out of the head, so that she shall not rule over her husband, but be subject and obedient to him.

For that reason the wife wears a headdress, that is, the veil on her head, as St. Paul writes in 1. Corinthians in the second chapter, that she is not free but under obedience to her husband. 1) A sermon on marriage, 15 January 1525 WA XVII/I – Quoted from Susan C. Karant-Nunn & Merry E. Wiesner – Luther on Women: A Sourcebook (Cambridge University Press, 2003) page 95

Luther makes a direct connection between veiling and the creation order. He points out that woman was not created out of the man’s physical head, but from his side. Luther sees the place she was created from as important due to the symbolism. She wasn’t created from man’s head, as if she’s head over him, but rather she wears a headdress to show she’s under her husband and obeys him. Read more
