“So then we can see that Paul uses Genesis to show why are a woman should not teach and not be in authority. We are then able to say that no these things are not just culturally binding like a head covering is. He is using scripture for his argument.
If Paul is only concerned with a cultural issue, why is he using the Creation account for his argument?”

He is using the creation account because the woman in Ephesus was DECEIVED. And he is using Eve as an example of the same type of deception from ignorance. Since EVE was formed last, she did not have as much knowledge as ADAM and was deceived by the serpent. Adam sinned knowing the truth..he had even seen some creating in the garden that Eve did not see.

If this is NOT what Paul means then you must believe that women are saved by bearing children. Please tell me that is not what you believe, too. A works salvation/sanctification for women only? The cruelty of that is monumental and blasphemous to our Holy Savior! But this is what many at CBMW teach! A works salvation for women in ‘roles’. It is like spitting on our Savior not to mention cruel to those Christian sisters who have not been able to bear children.
