Since Paul (through the Spirit) told the congregation at Corinth to behave like a man (1 Corinthians 16:13), I’d say it’s quite important for the church to be able to identify the behavior of a man.

This reminds me of 1 Corinthians 11.

Indeed the headship scale is still valid.

I wonder if most men in the church of our age have enough testosterone to teach on the need for women to cover in the worship assembly? Who wants to wake that “bear”?

"We need gentleness, but we don’t need softness. The two couldn’t be more different."

Well said! Men today are soft, physically, emotionally, spiritually. We've been cowed into being 'Nice' rather than Good, Polite instead of Honest, and Soft, not Gentle.

So, we pray from 1 Corinthians 16, when Paul says we ought be Watchful, Stand firm, Act like men, Have courage, and do all in Love., that our Father would enable us to be and do these by His Spirit.

Man and Woman, he made them.

That is why a man leaves his father, and a woman leaves her mother and joins together.

Thank you Jack. One of the main aspects of The Crucible Project weekend for men is helping them recover their masculine soul. It is working and needed more than ever in the church and for the world. TheCrucibleProject.org
