@lunarCelerity Here are a few reasons. In Greek, word ordering isn’t the same as in English. There is no boldface so by putting a word first you emphasize it like bolding. Most translators are men and they come to the text with a bias towards men and...

@GlennDavies @SwordMasterPub Hi Glenn. Indeed the 12 apostles are all Jewish males. They were appointed before the church. And description is not a prescription as Jesus may have had some symbolic reason for picking just 12 and all males. In Revelati...

@mythreesonsb @EtAbundatGratia @MikeWingerii So men are never usurping authority? Also where is this idea of a place of authority in the church even established that merely standing in it usurps it? All of this seems to be based on a conjectural int...

@RBM7211 @MikeWingerii @TerranWilliams4 Just read the article. There's no authority to appeal to. But Mike won't listen to a nobody like me. He seems to only want to consider those who are published. Well, here's two published authors who carefully a...

@Torncurtainorg @914Ann @AWoytuik @MikeWingerii No, that's not it. God is not interested in ranking people. I don't know where you get this idea from. Head can be used in that way (mostly how we use it in English today), but the meaning in scripture ...

@mikeoffthemic @William34772026 @MikeWingerii That's cute. Tell me whether your pastor in your church is Jewish or not...cause all 12 disciples were Jewish males. So who wrote Ruth? Esther? Hebrews? Do you know? Why don't we know who wrote Hebrews? ...
