Summary

The conversation of gender identity seems to have swept into every crevice of our culture. From debating gender “norms” to questioning the concept of biological gender completely, society has demanded to have a say in how men and women should understand themselves and the roles they play. But what are the ramifications of allowing the world to tell what we are to be instead of Scripture? In this episode of White Horse Inn, hosts Michael Horton, Justin Holcomb, Bob Hiller, and Walter Strickland untangle the narrative of creation as male and female and the importance of the differences we have been given by our Creator.

0:00.0	Firstborn males inherited everything.
0:04.8	So the firstborn male could keep the whole estate, or he could decide, okay, I'll parcel
0:11.6	out a bit to you, bit to you, bit to you, bit to you.

0:59.9	The flip side of it would be, every man who has been baptized into Christ is the bride
1:04.5	of Christ, right?
1:05.5	So you have this kind of both ways that the groom, the new Adam is Jesus and his bride, his
1:13.2	Eve as it were, is the church.
1:15.8	And so every man and woman who are in Christ Jesus are actually also the bride of Christ.
1:21.2	Again, not that now men are essentially women and women by being sons are essentially men.
1:26.3	But the office, the role, the function, the position of them, relationally is something
1:31.5	different on account of the grace of Christ.
1:33.0	But with all their difference, right?
