Don't really know if this fits in here, but I was thinking that the cult could be centered generally in established Christian values, but work in some 'alternative' explanations for things. For example, the Church could say that the story of Adam and Eve was that the fruit Eve was tempting Adam with (big, juicy forbidden fruit) was literally her pussy rather than an actual fruit, and that their punishment was due to women taking an active role in sex and the community of Eden. Similarly, Eve being tempted by the snake is a parable for how women can't be trusted not to stray from their man, and is the baseline for the church's promotion of not only male-first ideology in the political/social realm, but also more directly, the reason why they require chastity belts.
Building off that in a slightly different direction, even with the fruit being Eve's pussy, the Tree of Knowledge being a temptation to Eve could be interpreted as an injunction against letting women be educated.
If we want to go a bit off the beaten path of general Christianity, then we could say that Lilith was driven out of Eden because Eve didn't want to share Adam with her, but once Adam and Eve are driven out, they reunite, which can be the foundation for polygamy, or at least a sense that men can have other women besides their wives, be acceptable in this religion. (I believe Mormons argue that Adam was married to Lilith and Eve at the same time, which was the foundation for Mormon polygamy, but I'm not 100% certain on that.)
Basically in my view, this could almost be a sort of flipped concept to established Christianity - in Eden, Adam was nagged by Eve, she cheated on him with the serpent, Eve drove off the hotter woman, she dominated Adam's sex life, but after God kicks them out, Adam becomes dominant, he keeps Eve submissive and chaste, he brings Lilith into the mix. So kind of like Eve messes up Eden and turns it into a feminist hellhole, and God kicks her and Adam out to "right the boat", so to speak.
The concept of Eve and Lilith being Adam's co-wives can also be used to justify the Church of Selecta's view that women are inherently bisexual. So just like there was (and still is in some places, sadly) Christian gay-to-straight conversion therapy, there would be both Selecta lesbian-to-bi and straight-to-bi conversion therapy.
If we want to go a bit darker in terms of sex roles, then the actual real-life Hamitic theory can be used to justify race play sexual dynamics, too: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamitic
And of course, there is no limit to actual Biblical verses granting man superiority over woman to draw from: https://www.openbible.info/topics/dominance
