Quoting Quiverfull: Justifying Judging Others?

Quoting Quiverfull: Justifying Judging Others? April 27, 2017

quotingquiverfullby Lori Alexander from The Transformed Wife – Righteous Judgment Versus Hypocritical Judgment

Editor’s note: Yes, I know two Alexander posts on the same day is a bit much, but I could not let this laugh riot of a post justifying all the merde Lori talks about more famous Christian teachers go without a commentary. If I’m reading Lori’s word salad right on her site she seems to be in defensive mode over her right to judge other women merely because they don’t do it the way she thinks is right.

She must be getting significant resistance from her audience to address this issue in a long blog post. Truthfully she’s judgmental of anyone that does not strictly adhere to her own personal interpretation of the Bible. Which is both funny, tragic and sad at the same time because it does not take much reading of her book and blogs to realize she’s not happy, she’s living in a small theological box that is making her miserable and lashing out at anyone else with even a small iota of the freedoms she herself does not have.

When I use Scripture to give my thoughts about theΒ IF:Gathering, I am not slandering the women who run it when I say they should be teaching what God has commanded for older women to teach younger women and that social justice is not what the Kingdom of God is about. If the women who led the IF:Gathering were to ever read my article, they would see that I had no desire to destroy their lives, families, relationships, or churches. My desire is to point women back to the truth of God’s Word.

When I bring up a famous Christian woman who beautifies homes, has a TV show, owns a large store, and cafe and share that I am saddened that she is not a full-time keeper at home with her children, I am NOT judging hypocritically. I am making a righteous judgment that it is God’s will for mothers to be home full time with their children raising them in the nurture and the admonition of the Lord. Joanna Gaines said, β€œAs long as I can go home at night and be with the babies. It’s worth it just to be able to do that locally.” Children deserve to have their mothers home more than just at night. All of those other things she’s involved in are for naught if she loses her children to the world. I am not trying to destroy her life.

Is there not a place in the Bible that warns that by whatever measure you judge others you yourself will be judged? That sounds scary from here. Better to live your life without worrying about what others are doing and avoid all that judging judgmentalism that karma may end up boomeranging back on you.
