@Ramon I agree that God’s word transcends time and culture. As I’ve mentioned there were women ministers in the New Testament church. This is not something new. In fact women were later prevented from being allowed to be ministers because of male-dominated culture, not because of plain Biblical teaching. How can you account for Bible women such as Priscilla, Nympha, Phoebe or Chloe, etc?

Also, just because the passages I have mentioned are gender neutral in the Greek, it does not mean that other passages that mention men and women are gender neutral. I am actually not twisting the scriptures at all. The phrase “a one woman man” really is an idiomatic expression, but I can fully understand that that may be difficult to accept.

Also, almost all statements about the infallability of scripture specify that scipture is infallible only in its original languages. English translations, simply because they are translations, do not always convey the Greek meaning with complete accuracy.

Jesus received his humanity from a woman, he was part of the line of King David through Mary.

The Bible never says that the husband is the head of the family. It says that the husband is the head of the wife. To say that the husband is the head of the family is adding to scripture, or twisting scripture, or making assumptions that cannot be backed up by scripture.

Anyway, I’ve said all I want to on this subject.
Warmest regards, Ramon.
