On the whole, men are physically stronger than women. Men basically are superior to women in physical strength. Notice, this is not to say women aren't physically strong…men are stronger. This is quantitative.
There is nothing a man can do that a woman can’t qualitatively do. The difference is quantitative. For instance, a man can hit a baseball or a golf ball. A woman can hit a baseball or a golf ball. However, the difference is that, on the whole, a man can hit a baseball or a golf ball quantitatively farther than a woman.
Look at what this world values…in general, it values the physical. It pays people more money for physical attributes. In “Modeling God” we saw that the physical is the opposite of the spiritual. That we ought to move from a physical perspective to a spiritual perspective through thinking.
One of the measures of the Unprofitability of a society is how much it values the physical over the mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects. The downfall of a civilization is measured by the increased focus on the physical. Notice, this world values the quantitative physical abilities of men as MORE positive than negative even though the negative aspects of men being more physically focused make all of us Unprofitable.
Women can qualitatively do things men can’t do. First and foremost, they give life. In fact, the simplest way to explain the difference according to the Bible between men and women is women give life and men protect life.
WHY are angels always masculine?
What would be the purpose of a feminine angel? To produce more angels. That is not WHY God created the angels. Angels are created to protect us…they are masculine. In fact, we saw the fact that all angels are masculine led to the Unprofitability of the second dispensation…when angels married earthly women.
6. Men are focused on the physical while women are focused on the spiritual
When male leaders pervert God’s plan of masculinity (to put others interest above their own), the focus of society becomes the physical…and, on the whole, the society becomes less…it becomes more Unprofitable over time. Men see the physical as a cause. It is in their nature. The result is men are ultimately Unprofitable when it comes to the physical. However, women create and nurture life...and are much less likely to be destructive physically. Clearly, women are MORE excellent when it comes to the physical.
Look at how a society treats its women and you can tell what the society really values. Some cultures make the women cover themselves from head to toe. WHY? Because the men will lust.
Think about that. The society admits men are focused on the physical and are “weaker”…to the point that the women have to bear the burden…the women have to be more excellent because the society is beyond expecting the men to act in an excellent, non-physical manner. That leads to the next two “proofs”…
