Charles Spurgeon, film about his life -- AND ANOTHER CALL TO THE HEAD COVERFING FOR WOMEN

This little film just happened to come up on my screen, about the life of Charles Spuurgeon, known as "The Prince of Preachers" who became hugely popular as a preacher in Lonbdon in the 19the century
'
Spurpgeon had a great impact on the church and his writings are still available. It's hard to believe that there ever was a time in England when a preacher of the gospel could have been so popular and influential. We need another Sprrgeon.

UPDATE: Spurgeon's impact on England and indeed the world might fairly be called a revival, again tnot the dramatic sort of revival I have in mind when I pray for it, but it has to be called a revival when so many people are impacted for the gospel and a great effect in social reforms is one of the results as it was in response to Spurpgeon's preachibng.

And note please, that the women in his day all covered their heads in church. Since this is an argument I often make, that it may well be that God will not bless us with revival because we have abandoned this one simple but important requirement as preached by the apostle Paul, this is another opportunity to say so. Again, the whole point of the requirement to cover our heads is based on God's creation ordinance of the hierarchy of headship, Christ over man, man over woman. Headship is not tyranny or domination, it's a simple ordering of roles and authorities. Giving it up was suspiciously aligned with the growth of liberalism in the churches, and feminism, both worldly values that undermine the biblical authority.

So I have to say it again: IT MAY BE THAT WE CANNOT HAVE REVIVAL UNTIL WE REINSTATE THIS SIMPLE BASIC OUTWARD OBEDIENCE TO GOD'S ORDERING OF HEADSHIP.
