A Rebellion Against Authority

Titus 2:3-5
"3 Older women likewise are to be reverent in their behavior, not malicious gossips nor enslaved to much wine, teaching what is good, 4 so that they may [a]encourage the young women to love their husbands, to love their children, 5 to be sensible, pure, workers at home, kind, being subject to their own husbands, so that the word of God will not be dishonored."

Notice these older women are teaching the younger "married" women. There are those who believe the husbands are to teach the women, but the Bible is clear on this. There is a resistance today for the mothers and mothers-in-law to teach their daughters and daughters-in-law. The young women find it offensive and even become angry when a mother or mother in law attempts to give them wisdom from the Word. There is a rebellion in the land against all authority including the authority of God.

Luke 12:52-52 "…52 From now on, five in one household will be divided, three against two and two against three. 53 They will be divided, father against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.”
