So that you'll understand it, I want to take you a little bit deeper into the feminist agenda. I think you'll find them shocking and very helpful. Feminism, with all its assorted features, is an old, old heresy, meant to destroy God's design on every front. It's an ancient form of paganism. In fact, it's the very same one that Paul faced in the first century A.D. When Paul's talking about the ideologies of his time in 2 Corinthians 10, they weren't any different than what we face today. In fact, the best way to understand it is that it's a repackaging of what is known as ancient Gnosticism. Gnosticism is from the Greek word "gnosis," to know. In ancient times there were always people who said they had the higher knowledge; they were in the know. They had ascended beyond the mundane, the frivolous, trivial, low-level thinking of most people—particularly Christians. And, as in the past, we're always getting assaulted by those who have the higher, secret, elevated knowledge. Gnosticism was more than just a sort of generic idea that you could have superior knowledge to Christianity; it was to make Christianity look base, simplistic, and foolish. Gnosticism became a somewhat broad technical term to describe any false anti-God religion. They would say, "The Bible teaches simple, basic, foolish stuff, but the ascended knowledge is far beyond that." Today we call it "New Age," but it's the old age. The early Gnostics maintained bizarre lies as their system of belief, including ones that always elevated women above men. Again, that's what you would expect. Here's what they said: "Eve was a spirit-endowed woman who saved Adam, and final deliverance for the whole of mankind from the bondage of the flesh will be brought through female power." They just said whatever they wanted to say. Listen, if I didn't know what God's plan was, and you showed me Satan's plan, I would know that God's was the reverse. So, if Satan wants to elevate women to this level, you can be sure he's going against God. Gnostic literature says the snake in the garden is the redeemer and the God of Scripture is the evil usurper. Gnostic literature goes so far as to say that the snake is the true Christ. Now, this is redemptive history stood on its head, isn't it? That kind of strange, bizarre, mystical talk is intended to sound very secretive, very mysterious, very esoteric, and very lofty—in reality, it mocks Christ. Redemption is not the gracious, miraculous transformation of a person through the death and resurrection of Christ; it's redemption by self-understanding and self-realization. They say that we become fully divine when we ascend to the purest kind of self-knowledge. But Gnosticism is the blasphemy of God, Scripture, Christ, and the gospel. And all of this is just satanic, lying heresy to confound and contradict God's truth; it's blasphemous doctrine of demons. And this is the stuff that is central in the philosophy of feminism. Eve dominates Adam. There are no rules for human sexual conduct. There's no such thing as sin or salvation, and there's no such thing as Jesus Christ being God incarnate, dying to redeem us. We redeem ourselves by elevated knowledge. Listen, Gnosticism exalts lesbianism and advocates that the divine revealer was actually feminine. Does that sound like it comes from God or Satan? Maybe that explains Roman Catholicism's unbiblical worshiping of Mary. Look, you have to understand, when it says in Genesis 3 that women sought to take charge, boy, they really did, and they developed these incredible ideologies—a diabolical path to destroy God, the Bible, Christ, the gospel, and men. And if men through the ages have been somewhat chauvinistic in fighting back, you have to understand how the battle that started in Genesis 3 escalated. Because that's what's behind what's going on today. Repent and believe! GTY.org (90-99) – Feminism's Radical Agenda
