WHEREAS, The Scriptures bear record to the distinctive roles of men and women in the church and in the home, and
WHEREAS, Christian women have made and are making a significant contribution to the cause of Christ, and
WHEREAS, Christian women have been made exhorted to redig the old wells of mission promotion and education in our churches by Kenneth Chafin, and
WHEREAS, There is a great attack by the members of most women's liberation movements upon scriptural precepts of woman's place in society, and
WHEREAS, The theme of the Convention is "Share the Word Now" and this Word we share is explicitly clear on this subject.
Therefore, be it RESOLVED, That we "redig" or reaffirm God's order of authority for his church and the Christian home: (1) Christ the head of every man; (2) man the head of the woman; (3) children in subjection to their parents--in the Lord.
Therefore, be it further RESOLVED, That we "redig" or reaffirm God's explicit Word that (1) man was not made for the woman, but the woman for the man; (2) that the woman is the glory of man; (3) that as woman would not have existed without man, henceforth, neither would man have existed without the woman, they are dependent one upon the other--to the glory of God.
