2Co 11:3 question

@JohnRayKite @TheLaurenChen Well, that’s what we are debating. It doesn’t say specifically that women cannot lead. I agree that all scripture is God breathed. But submitting to an incorrect reading—like the idea that circoncision is required—can be...

@JohnRayKite @TheLaurenChen I’m confused. I mean Jesus was submissive. Paul was submissive. So I guess it does end the argument for hierarchy.

@JohnRayKite @TheLaurenChen Priests were only male, and further, only from one tribe and further had to be without defect and within a specific age range. So if this was the reason, why wasn’t the specific Jewish tribe of each of the apostles noted? ...

@JohnRayKite @TheLaurenChen Also, Jesus chose 12 Jewish male apostles…if male is the criteria, why not also Jewish?

@JohnRayKite @TheLaurenChen Hm. So the Jews were first. Even Paul says “to the Jew first, then the Gentile.” Does that mean only Jews can be leaders? As for the fall, there is certainly something there to be explored. Paul says that Adam wasn’t dece...

@JohnRayKite @TheLaurenChen As for 1Co 14:34-35, did you notice that since 1Co 7:1, Paul was responding to things they wrote in their prior letter to him? Do you think after encouraging all to participate by edifying each other that he then silences ...

@TheLaurenChen I know nothing of this woman in the OP you are replying to, but your statement is not Biblically faithful. Where does the Bible ever say 'women cannot be pastors'?
