Biblical Femininity Part 1
The concept of biblical femininity is largely lost in modern day society. Even if countries like the USA claim to be mainly Christian, they are in fact much more secular than Christian - unless you want to go as far as saying that modern Christianity has distanced itself so much from the biblical blueprint for life that it can look completely secular and still call itself Christian. This would indicate that Christianity has become Churchianity indeed, a man-made and man-shaped religion.
Be that as it may, every day examples of practical biblical femininity are rare these days, and mainly found in larger or smaller fringe groups. The outward signs of biblical femininity are easily listed:
According to the biblical command and example, a godly woman stays at home instead of going to work outside the home. She is her husband's submissive and obedient help meet who runs his house according to biblical standards under her husband's lead. She has a quiet attitude, yet stands strong with her husband and family and is an example to her children and possibly younger wives, if we are talking about a polygamous family.
She wears long hair under her head covering and dresses modestly in dresses and skirts, without outward adornment such as jewelry, perfume and make up. She is not concerned with the cares and concerns of the world, such as pop culture or Hollywood, fashion trends or shopping, and she keeps away from gossip and vain talk on the phone, as she is her husband's garden enclosed.
