Pretty soon I will need to take a break and minister my friendship to my husband who likes to see me once in a while 🙂

Mark,

Let me clarify one thing. The only false teachers we know about in Ephesus, where Timothy is ministering, are men. An argument from silence is hardly as convincing as we what we are actually told.

Actually I will say that your argument is from silence. Just because a woman is not named as one of the deceivers does not mean that there were not false deceived teacher(s) that were women. In fact not a single false deceived teacher is named. Only the deliberate deceivers are named, so the group of the deceived are not accounted by their gender or their names so we cannot prove anything other then that Paul stopped them from teaching because of his love and his assurance that those who were operating in ignorance and unbelief as he himself had operated, would also qualify for the great mercy that God gives.

atm i’m trying to concentrate on these videos

Mark, did I tell you lately that you are appreciated? I really, really appreciate you taking the time to review my work and to ask questions and challenge me. This is helpful for all of us and I believe that it honors the Lord Jesus as we seek to be iron to each other.
