Quiverfull — the panel's response: legalism, Galatians, blessing logic
- Where do you start with a woman who left God over a legalistic reading of Scripture?
- What would be a more appropriate approach to Scripture for a woman in a legalistic marriage?
The panel responds: the system is legalism and earned righteousness that misses Jesus — Mike hears no quote from the gospels anywhere; Dan says start in Galatians, which hammers the law and legalism. The blessing logic fails: a full quiver means blessed, but that cannot mean the childless are cursed — Paul, Jesus, and John the Baptist had no kids. Mike invokes the Prayer of Jabez as the same move: pick one passage and treat it as the whole way to be blessed.
