Esther, I appreciate your sharing your experience of 17 years in the Local Church and coming to realize its flaws, specifically its abusing power and misusing God’s authority. Thank you for speaking your insight regarding the system of Christian patriarchy in this church. You point out that the Christian patriarchy is not a command of God rather it is rooted in ancient pagan patriarchy–it is a result of Sin after the fall. I pray for continued insight for you as you abide in the Lord and seek to give Him the Glory.
