Wives who aren’t subservient to husbands are preaching ‘false gospel,’
Southern Baptist official warns

Married couples who consider themselves equal partners are violating
biblical law, according to the Southern Baptist Convention’s top expert
on family concerns.

Russell Moore, president of the denomination’s ethics and liberty
commission, said Christians determine the nature of reality through
their family relationships, but he warned that marital closeness can
undermine biblical teachings.

“Often, I think, the gospel is obscured because God has designed a
picture of the gospel in the one-flesh union of husband and wife, (and)
when that is broken down, you have a false gospel that is being
preached,” Moore said.

He said the Bible instructed Christian women to be subservient to their
husbands, who in turn are commanded to be faithful to their wives.

“Sometimes you have people who are preaching a false gospel to
themselves in their homes by men who aren’t loving their wives as
themselves and wives who aren’t submitting to their husbands,” Moore
said. “That then plays itself out in other ways later on in that
person’s walk with Christ.”

Moore also expressed regret over his work as a reporter covering a
meeting of a liberal Baptist splinter group that promoted same-sex
marriage and other views that deviated from his beliefs.

“Everything I said was true, and everything I said was accurate, but it
was very spiritually dangerous to me because as people started saying,
‘You’re lying, This isn’t true,’ I knew what I was saying was true, but
it became an issue where I was on a mission to accuse,” Moore said.

Moore said that he became caught up in his desire to vindicate himself
and be seen as correct, and he succumbed to the temptation to “fight
Satan with Satan.”

“When we see Satan taking the law of God, accurately diagnosing what it
means and accusing with it, he is coming to kill and destroy. What was
happening to me was I wanted to win,” Moore said.
