If Adam’s naming of the animals conveys his authority over them, on what basis does he have authority over the fish, sea creatures, insects and plants which he didn’t name? 🤔

@ymmotrojam @Rattle_Resists @michael_ronning Why is Paul concerned with men having authority over women for one hour a week? What purpose does that serve if for the rest of the week they are listening

@GetoD6812 @pastherandie Women not serving as leaders is not established BIBLICA

@GetoD6812 @pastherandie Deborah was the authority of God over an entire nation by God's own will (just like Samuel was). Therefore, a woman in a position of authority is not a sin as you assume. Your simple assumptions are clearly wrong, but it seem...

@Dasugo @m_james76997 @MikeWingerii Anyone who is able and in a place where they have the power/ability to help. A male who isn't a father is can help too, right? These passages are mostly about those who are judges and in places of authority who are...

@PeterThreshwood @Almsivi7 Headship doesn’t mean authority over in this context.

@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 ...

@ronhenzel @carol66944 There’s no slippery slope here as I’m merely rejecting a doctrine created by man. The idea of gender hierarchy of authority is not the teaching of the New Testament. Even in the OT, there was no sense that obeying a woman in a ...

The Bible nowhere argues that the authority that parents have over children extends into adulthood. Gen 2:24 clearly shows that a man leaves his mother and father and cleaves to his wife showing that there is a clear break from parental authority and...

Even still, dominion in Genesis is about stewardship and care, not exploitation

@ymmotrojam @CherylSchatz @th3muse Of course you have to say this if you don’t accept females as deacons. The facts are: - Paul uses the feminine διάκονον - Paul is commending her to the church she is moving to as a leader - She is to be received as...

@MikeWingerii @th3muse About your comments about my speaking for you. I’m summarizing from the many hours I’ve listened to your teaching on this subject. Just as one can comment on or summarize what an author has written, I am doing nothing different...

@lunarCelerity @MikeWingerii Yes. The tendency is to look at clear scriptures which seem to include women even at the highest levels having authority over men, teaching men, etc., but then a few passages later which seem to contradict or have some de...

@lunarCelerity @MikeWingerii Mike has had a long time to correct or clarify his definition of secondary. As best as I can tell, to him it's a matter of perceived severity, not sin. He thinks that egalitarian teaching greatly harms marriage. How does ...

@j0rdanistyping @MikeWingerii Yet we both think we are right and have a biblical reason for our view. The point is that it isn't a primary matter for which we divide nor is it a matter of sin. It is a debatable matter. Think about this for a minute⎯...

@ronhenzel @kennyinnes My church doesn’t encourage prophecy and tongues because of Asuza but because of 1Co 12-14. The idea that understanding and exhortation is not necessary after the final sentence of Revelation was penned is clearly fallacious. ...

@ronhenzel @Whitehorse1255 So it appears you are imposing a category of prophecy

@ronhenzel @Whitehorse1255 Why else would Paul specify that “2 or 3 prophets should speak and the others should pass judgement (1Co 14:29)? Should we pass judgment on canon revelation? It would seem that there is prophecy made in Corinth that is not ...
