Patriarchy was the backdrop of the Bible, not the point of it.
Christ came to redeem the relationship between men and women and he has done that (past tense). We have to participate. Patriarchy is a world system. Radical feminism is a world system.
Neither are of Jesus or of Heaven. The man and woman centered in Jesus serve one another and partner together. They mutually respect and love each other. They don't do things to each other that Jesus would not do to them individually. Yes, men and women are different and not interchangeable, yet, they are one in the same in spirit and soul in Jesus Christ. (Galatians 3:28) They both have the Imago Dei. (Genesis 1:27) If we can see this and live it, we will bring down patriarchy and radical feminism. They are world systems. We don't need them anymore if we choose to accept what Jesus has already done.
A much larger writing project to come on this.

"For we have the living Word of God, which is full of energy, like a two-mouthed sword. It will even penetrate to the very core of our being where soul and spirit, bone and marrow meet! It interprets and reveals the true thoughts and secret motives of our hearts. There is not one person who can hide their thoughts from God, for nothing that we do remains a secret, and nothing created is concealed, but everything is exposed and defenseless before his eyes, to whom we must render an account."

Hebrews 4:12 - 13 TPT
If we advance the Kingdom of Heaven, Jesus' Kingdom of love, grace, and truth in the Earth - in other words, if King Jesus rules in the hearts of all man and womankind; we won't need so many rules and laws. Love will rule. Love is greater than law. Love is the greatest of all things (1 Corinthians 13:13). His love has already won.
When you are a politician who does not condemn physical or verbal threats of death or violence from your constituents against people on either side of the isle, you have lost my respect and my support (if you ever had it in the first place). You won't get it back and you won't earn it in the future. Both the Repubs and the Dems have lost their way all over this country and in DC. ๐ Oh how the mighty will fall, never to rise again.
