@igarglewithfire @MikeWingerii Yes, that’s possibly it. But I brought that one up before. I’ve requested he doesn’t call people to repent for spreading teaching that he says is secondary. He refused.

@darylsterk In Wisdom of Solomon 12:6, authentas is used (the accusative plural noun form), whereas in 1Ti 2:12, authentein is a present active infinitive verb form. They are related, and I do agree with you that there is a sense of murder here which...

@darylsterk I agree—authentein, especially used in its verb form, is extremely r

@____Alice_White @YerFavColonizer This confirms that the gospel Paul preached wa

Many people think egalitarians are rejecting the “plain meaning” of 1Ti 2:12 and 1Ti 3:2. At the same time they have no problem recognizing that what the text first sounds like elsewhere is frequently different after checking the context. I give lot...

Yet Mike clarified that egalitarianism is a secondary issue and that they should

I even made a personal appeal to encourage Mike to change course on this, but Mi

@BrandonABourg @PeterNDecker @sister_slay Not only that, but they constantly refer to it. In the teachings of Presidents of the Church: Joseph Smith (2007), it features the statement: “God himself was once as we are now…” and discusses it as truth, ...

@BrandonABourg @PeterNDecker @sister_slay However, can he name one denomination that doesn’t believe that God is eternal? The question concerns primary matters not secondary ones. And what does the LDS church mean by eternal since everyone is eterna...

@PeterNDecker @ModChristChurch @sister_slay What you are describing is clearly grace + works. In the Bible, faith is contrasted with works. Grace is a gift given to every single human but it must be accepted. If you are human, you qualify! Faith is ...

@PeterNDecker @ModChristChurch @sister_slay The reason I'm exposing the false teachings of the LDS church is so that you will know the truth and trust in the true Jesus who is not the spirit brother of Lucifer, who is the uncreated creator that creat...

@sister_slay The Bible’s claim is that Jesus is the unique God-man, the uncreated creator, the only one who pre-existed His human incarnation, who is God and who created and sustains the universe. The Bible doesn’t say that the Father and Holy Spiri...

@turnedwife Yes! They deserve to be treated as the equal counterpart of the man.

@Prov_Standards Eve was created last and didn’t have these experiences of God and creation. God was setting Adam up to have experience and given a responsibility and a deep connection to his wife, and the way God created her was different than the re...

@emily_breiten @turnedwife I’m not arguing that it wasn’t common for women to wear head coverings until they didn’t. For many, I suspect they were just doing what they thought they were required to do and stopped when they weren’t required. Others ...

@hyde62056 @ethercoast Jn 19:37 only quotes the first part of Zech 12:10, "And again another Scripture says, 'They will look at Him whom they pierced.'" This was fulfilled when Jesus was crucified and pierced with a spear, but they did not mourn. Tha...

@Kamalamaison @iamtheguardians @tmsilverman @legaltweetz 1. Paul is dealing with a specific deceived woman teaching false doctrine and bringing her undeceived husband down with her (like Eve did with Adam). 2. Head doesn’t mean authority over but so...

@Reneechop So you quoted 2Ti 3:13 at me and didn’t mean that it applied to me? P

In the thread starting from the following post, I go through the basis for Paul’s reference to Adam and Eve in 1Ti 2:13-14, the order of creation and how this relates to Eve’s being deceived by examining Genesis 2 in detail. It’s not gymnastics; it’...

@Reneechop MacArthur for all his learning overlooks how Paul since ch7 has been responding to things that the Corinthians wrote in their letter to him. Paul quotes them and then refutes them: “What? came the word of God out from you[men]? or came i...

@Reneechop @sparkobuzzer Whether God’s Word clearly teaches something first depends on whether you have rightly divided what it says in the first place. A text out of its context is a pretext for a proof text. Why do you suppose that even Peter ack...

@Reneechop @Rattle_Resists @michael_ronning It’s ok if you disagree with me. You can even call it ‘terrible hermeneutics’. But you won’t convince me you are right unless you can show how all the details in the text fit. Consider the following questio...

@Reneechop But Paul doesn’t say Eve was deceived because she was made *different

@Reneechop Going back to 1Ti 2:11-15, we now can see how Paul uses the creation order as a parallel account to a situation in Ephesus where a deceived wife teaching false doctrine and her undeceived husband is being silent and not correcting her seri...

@Reneechop Paul connects the time sequence order of creation with Eve’s deception. What we know from a careful reading of Gen 2 is that god creates Adam (2:7), then plants a garden and puts Adam in it (2:8). Then God causes the trees to supernatural...

@JoanBandy Any student sits quietly and listens. The context of this letter is that Timothy was asked to remain to stop false teaching. This particular false teacher was teaching things that put her outside the Christian faith. She needed to stop tea...

@MutamboHangford @Pastor_Gabe On the other hand, a text taken out of context can be a pretext for a proof text. Paul is clearly responding to a prior letter from the Corinthians (see 1Cor 7:1). He is quoting from it in other areas, so you need to co...

@MarqueStuddock @smashbaals But you changed the text. First, it says “a woman” not “women”. Second, the usual word for authority is not authentein. By taking a snippet out of context and even misrepresenting the details you can turn any text into a p...
