Thanks Paula. you are right about ‘pink he5meneutics i think…
incosistency in the approach to scripture seems to be a constant challenge…

some claim that 1 tim 3:2 ‘excludes’ women from eldership because it ‘only’ says husband of one wife…. yet if the same logic is applied to Ex 20:17… ONLY men are not to covet their neighbour’s spouse…
(let alone the whole issue of ‘having to be married and have children that follow the Lord etc from 1 Tim 2)
