Dear All
Over the last few days, the newspapers reported about several scandalous photos of the seven high profile women in the life of just one man - Eddison Chen.
How bias society is against women since the beginning of the human race. Never was the guy in the centre of the scandal, scalded in anyway...only the seven women were publicly disgraced and torn-down by society.
In the bible, women in society then were always looked down upon when caught in scandalous affairs, NEVER the man...but in actual fact, it takes at least two hands to clap. The left hand is always wrong, and not the right. In Jesus' time, it is the adulterous woman, who by law, was to be stoned, but what about the adulterous man? He gets away scotch-free.
I had brought this up with Bert, and our conclusion is man never change, no matter which generation he is born. What is clear from the new testament when Jesus came, was that the old law given to Moses for the people was because man is so stubborn. What God wanted was not polygamous relationships but monogamous marriages as revealed by Jesus.
We call ourselves a modern society. But we still live no different from our ancestors. Sometimes I marvel at how wonderful God is, to reach out to us, who are sinful and so imperfect, and still wanting us to be with Him forever!
How unfair society is against women. Luckily God is not bias and is colour and gender-blind.
Love Theresa
