Woman, The Neglected Glory Of Man

The devalued status of women is one of the first signs of moral decay within a society. The further a culture strays from God the less value it places on women, until at last she is routinely humiliated and mistreated. This may take place in a number of ways: financial deprivation, physical attacks, psychological abuse, and being treated as second class citizens. This devalued status of women is against everything Scripture teaches about mankind; for man (male and female) is created in the image of God. To dishonor either is an offense to our Creator. Furthermore, it is made clear that the woman is the glory of the man, thus, the glory of God's creation.
