@EricisAmerican @Protestia But you said “further, there is no New Testament mention of any woman being a pastor” ⎯ but there is no one, not even a man, who is called pastor (poimen) in the NT except Christ. And no one is called elder except Peter and...

@BronWen727104 @autocorrect2_0 Also, we are ALL to emulate Christ—wives included

@BronWen727104 @autocorrect2_0 Yes, @autocorrect2_0, I agree—its not a pass for a husband to not obey Christ. I noted this only because of your wording which suggests conditional submission. Oh, and I believe that the husband also submits to his wif...

@JonByers186054 @ssiena017 @dalepartridge @GracefilledWomb I never said I reject all authority, just that God never intended that a husband be in authority over his wife. And yes, Jesus⎯though also the God of the universe⎯as the man treats the churc...

@MackDonahue First, I appreciate you responding. I understand how you want me to let this go, yet you even agree with me that this should not be a repentance thing. Again, when one tells a brother or sister to repent, advises others to loudly leave ...

"...entire online personality to challenge Mike"? That's not true. I have decided to use X as a place to present my egalitarian views. I want to get to the point where I've heard every objection and had a chance to respond to it. But Mike hasn't a...

@darylsterk I’ve heard this one being proposed many times. Yet Paul is actually using this wording to explain how ‘she’ (ie. ‘the woman’ of v14 who cannot be Eve as Eve is dead and nothing can be done in the present to affect her salvation) will be s...

@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...

@BronzAgeLarper @KevinCanale24 @rightresponsem Peter was married. Paul wasn’t. But Paul wishes that all people were like him being able to focus their entire lives on serving Christ. However, you can obviously still serve Christ even being married an...

@BronzAgeLarper @KevinCanale24 @rightresponsem Where did you get that idea from? Paul’s letter was addressed “to the church of God which is at Corinth” (1Co 1:2). Further, his comments in 1Co 7:7 show he is speaking to “all people”: “Yet I wish that...

@MoonfireArt @rightresponsem Why doesn’t Paul say “so that those of you who are selected to proselytize like me”? Instead he says all people: “Yet I wish that all people (πάντας ἀνθρώπους, all people) were even as I myself am. However, each has his ...

@Am1argento @dalepartridge I see, so Jesus never existed but Paul did? And Paul fabricated Jesus so that he could get himself killed for preaching this Jesus who he claimed was raised bodily from the dead? “For the resurrection of the dead I am on t...

@PeterNDecker @BrandonABourg @sister_slay If you believe (as I do) that James is describing the kind of faith and not adding works to faith, then you should be appalled by the statement “…after all we can do.” You should demand your church to rescin...

@PeterNDecker @BrandonABourg @sister_slay The fact that the LDS church doubles in size is immaterial. Growth is seen in Islam, does that make Islam true? Just because someone has a sense or feeling inside that what they believe is true doesn’t make i...

@PeterNDecker @BrandonABourg @sister_slay I’m glad that you believe and claim that your faith is in God. That being the case, it is important to identify which God we are speaking about. Given that Joseph Smith was the founder of the LDS church, if t...

@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 ...

@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...

@Prov_Standards Adam wasn’t created as the only one with a brain, or the only one who could work or teach or protect. That is a complete misunderstanding of God’s intent. The idea of Adam as head is of being the one who in creation was more prominen...

@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...

@Prov_Standards I’m not recoiling at any Biblical ideas. I’m showing what the Bible doesn’t mean by making observations from God’s own design. The Bible isn’t saying the husband is in control of everything and the wife is like a child who doesn’t ma...
