Let's get one thing out of the way right off the cricket bat: Stephen Green is a Brit. But, as we know, there CAN be pockets of True Christianity™ all over the Earth, no matter how Godless their surroundings may be.
Now to the meat of the matter: Stephen Green is a True Christian™ Pastor in every way. I am bringing this up because the media is once again trying to attack a Pastor because he ACTUALLY practices what is in the Bible. Specifically, he beats his wife when she strays from the Bible. From the story about his ungrateful wife:
Wait... They are saying that because he took time out of his precious schedule to document all of her transgression and describe to her what his plans were so she would have time to beg for forgiveness from Baby Jesus is "chilling?" The only thing that is chilling here is the fact that I still get chills when I read this. I can only pray that I can one day teach everyone in the world what this man is really all about. The FACT that the LIEberal media is chastising him for this is for one reason alone: He is a Pastor:
That the media would try to SPIN this as a bad thing is is not surprising seeing as they are all pinko atheist God Mockers. But they obviously have not read the Bible. It teaches us the following (scriptural support follows):
Scriptural Support:
LOVE your Husband and OBEY him:
Do NOTHING to give the husband cause to discipline you:
SUBMIT to your husband as if he were God:
Peter demonstrates that being a wife is like being a slave by reviewing various submissive relationships:
1. Slaves, I Pet.2:18-19, 20.
2. Christ, the pattern for both, I Pet.2:21, 23.
3. Wives, "in the same way", I Pet.3:1, 5-6
In this last piece of scripture, Pete says that wives should behave like slaves:
Also, do not be prudish in bed since NOTHING you do in bed is sinful:
So as you can see, the Holy KJV Bible fully supports what this man has done. he even cared enough to use a ROD. While God does not tell us how to punish wives specifcially, he does proscribe a ROD be used in at least ONE form of domestic discipline:
After all of the lessons he gave he in God's Loving Word, she still didn't get it. She describes her husband's love, all of which come straight from the scripture I have listed:
The media is attacking him because they do not want him spreading the TRUTH about what Christianity is REALLY all about. This persecution is actually addressed in the Bible. A husband disciplining his wife must be prepared to be punished for doing the right thing, up to and including dying for it, just as Christ died for us:
Isn't that beautiful? God so loves women that he commands their husbands to punish them even if the husband will be persecuted and punished, even killed, for doing so!
SHOUT GLORY AND PASS THE ROD!

I am bringing this up because the media is once again trying to attack a Pastor because he ACTUALLY practices what is in the Bible. Specifically, he beats his wife when she strays from the Bible. From the story about his ungrateful wife:
Caroline Green was often punished by her husband Stephen for failing to be a dutiful, compliant wife, but his final act of violence against her — the one that prompted her long-overdue decision to divorce him — was all the more chilling because it was coldly premeditated.Stephen Green wrote a list of his wife’s failings then described the weapon he would make to beat her with.
‘He told me he’d make a piece of wood into a sort of witch’s broom and hit me with it, which he did,’ she recalls, her voice tentative and quiet. ‘He hit me until I bled. I was terrified. I can still remember the pain.
‘He told me he’d make a piece of wood into a sort of witch’s broom and hit me with it, which he did,’ she recalls, her voice tentative and quiet. ‘He hit me until I bled. I was terrified. I can still remember the pain.
Green, 60, is founder and director of Christian Voice, a fundamentalist group he set up in 1994, whose website thunders against the vices — family breakdown, crime, immorality and drink among them — that are ruining the lives of ‘real people’. For example, after Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans in 2005 and killed more than 1,600 people, he claimed it was a result of God’s wrath and had purified the city.
He routinely inveighs against the abolition of the death penalty, no-fault divorce, Islam, abortion and, his particular bête noir, homosexuality. Violent crime and rape, he laments on his website, have risen dramatically in the past 50 years, while he points out that ‘virtue is derided’.

- The husband is in authority over his household and has the right/responsibility to discipline his entire household, including the wife.
- DD is "responsible authority," meaning that if the husband is to have authority then he must be able to take action and mete out consequence in a tangible form.
- Discipline is a practical expression of love, a proactive way of helping a wife to grow and mature; motivating her to re-align her priorities so that she will not end up in mediocrity.
- Discipline is expressed in loss of privileges, spanking, corner time, and writing appropriate sentences multiple times. DDers may include prayer, godly examples, and encouragement in their list of ways to discipline.
LOVE your Husband and OBEY him:

‘Stephen listed my misdemeanours: I was disrespectful and disobedient; I wasn’t loving or submissive enough and I was undermining him. He also said I wasn’t giving him his *conjugal rights.
‘He even framed our marriage vows — he always put particular emphasis on my promise to obey him — and hung them over our bed. He believed there was no such thing as marital rape and for years I’d been reluctant to have sex with him, but he said it was my duty and was angry if I refused him.
