@3GNRTX Ep 5:21 says “Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.” The “be subject” verb shown in the English you quoted from v22 is not in the Greek as it comes from v21. What does this mean? It means that whatever v22 and following are sayin...

@3GNRTX The ‘naming’ of ‘woman’ (pre-fall) is simply an observation that Isha (woman) came out of Ish (man). That’s not a name, but an observation of what God did. And God used it first in the text. There is no indication of authority observed in th...

@3GNRTX Where was a hierarchy of authority of the man over the woman established

@Cooper9DL You are taking 1Ti 2:12 out of context and are treating “head” in the sense of authority or master over which is not the sense in which Paul was using the word kephale. Your comment about 1Ti 3:1-13 being directed at only men is likely due...

@Trentofthenorth @kdclaunch The command was first given to Adam, then later to both Adam and Eve (Eve’s quoting God has Him speaking to plural persons). Adam called her “woman” or “Isha” as she came out of “Ish”—it’s a functional association and has...

@ChristMount777 God didn’t punish Jesus, God put the sins of humanity on Him and Jesus submitted Himself to death by crucifixion. Read Matt 18:21-35 where a man was forgiven his debt and then his charges were laid back on him. That is very much like...

@KillmanBuck @JoInAthensGa @Eric_Conn Multiple attestation is important. But in this case⎯on the confirmation of Biblical doctrine⎯we have all the witness we need in scripture. History itself is worth considering, but it is not a witness to establish...

@pauldirks It's a bit hard to frame it in a single sentence to capture everything carefully and completely, but the idea is that 1Co 5:11-13 has a meaning...unless you think the government is how God punishes sin. In that case, why say anything to th...

@KillmanBuck @JoInAthensGa @Eric_Conn Making disciples means to teach people everything that Jesus taught the apostles and to do it. It doesn’t mean everyone is a bishop or teacher or apostle, but it doesn’t in any way refer to role differences which...

@PastorRobMonroe @KaeleyT @megbasham Your posts should be chained as I don’t know what this one is the continuation of. 1Ti 3:1-13 and Tit 1:5-9 in no way restrict elders to be male. You likely get there by reading the English not realizing that the...

@PastorRobMonroe @KaeleyT @megbasham Is it so far fetched that a conservative could believe that a godly woman could teach true doctrine or pastor a church based on a careful reading of scripture? Question: 1Co 11:14-15—does “nature” teach you that ...

@RenOfMen @42Lives I suspect Paul wouldn’t be concerned about the statistics unless there was an increase in s3xual immorality. 1Co 7 is fairly clear that he wishes they would be like him (single), but if they are unable to control themselves, it is ...

@The_Sig_ You are importing a modern understand of what “head” means in the English. You have to investigate to understand what Paul means by using this term in context. Since both Jesus and the Father are the uncreated creator, there is no sense in ...

@Almsivi7 Adam observed her coming from his flesh and bone so he described it: Isha from Ish. Even later, Eve’s name means the mother of all living, so it’s an acknowledgment of her importance. Hagar called God “the God who sees” ⎯ does her ‘naming...

@ronhenzel @thecrazypastor While it is true that Paul often introduces quotations or topics from the Corinthians with “Περὶ δὲ” (Peri de, “Now concerning…”), he also employs rhetorical questions and contrastive arguments to distinguish his views from...

@ymmotrojam The 144,000 are also Jewish male virgins: “They sang a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders. No one could learn the song except the 144,000 who had been redeemed from the earth. These are those w...

@ronhenzel BTW, those bishops became very angry at the insistence that God booby trapped humanity in order that they would fall so that they would be dependent on Him to rescue them. But this is exactly the setup they created. LDS teaching requires...

@ronhenzel As I told the LDS bishops, this would be like God placing a trap, pointing it out (so they would be tempted to go near it), so that when they got trapped, He could be their saviour and get them out of it. How would you perceive a human fa...
