@subq Ok, great. 👍 I think some think that authority is only for males forever. Glad you don’t believe that. "To the one who is victorious and does my will to the end, I will give authority over the nations—that one ‘will rule them with an iron scep...

@InnovationHQ2 I’m just trying to get people to think, silly. So what say you?

@InnovationHQ2 I’m just trying to get people to think, silly. So what say you? The clear teaching of Paul is that women will judge the world and angels.

@subq Right, Mike thinks women being under the authority of men is only for this life in the church age. Is that what you think too? For what reason would God limit women from authoritative roles when they are just going to go all the way in the ne...

@ronhenzel @Grump_Old_Man @Robert_S_Morley @smashbaals Why is preaching authorized by the church? Why would I stop someone from Preaching the truth if God is using them and they are sound in the faith

@Brett_Samsonite @VCITW @riemersonck You are lying about me. Don’t you know that lying is a sin? Doesn’t that even bother you?? I do not hate scripture nor God. I cannot repent of your false accusation. Onesimus was a slave and was likely acquired ...

@Robert_S_Morley @Grump_Old_Man @ronhenzel @smashbaals Yes, I agree with this—but Paul is quoting from the letter from the Corinthians that he said earlier in 1Co 7:1 that he was responding to. And we have more evidence that the Judiazers were infilt...

@smashbaals That’s not true! Paul was egalitarian—it’s all you men who struggle

@Grump_Old_Man @Robert_S_Morley @ronhenzel @smashbaals No, the qualifications don’t reference a man. I already showed you that. No male pronouns, tis is neuter and means anyone, and “one wife husband” is an idiom for faithful if married. Please list...

@Grump_Old_Man @Robert_S_Morley @ronhenzel @smashbaals Again, you presume things: 1. That equal opportunity must mean we should see equal representation of M/F 2. That the NT explicitly names all pastors/elders 3. That God designates leadership to b...

@Writerwhsmith @JamesPelton18 This is absolutely correct! It is a word used in the verb form only once in the New Testament and only 8 other times in antiquity. It is extremely rare and one would wonder why Paul chose this specific word to mean norma...

@th3muse A life goal might be to aim to be last. While Paul appears to be first

@Grump_Old_Man @ronhenzel @smashbaals I agree, God is not progressive. Yet there are some things that changed in the church like the divide between Jew and Gentile and yes, between male and female. No one is saying that it has to be 50/50. It’s not ...

@Grump_Old_Man @ronhenzel @smashbaals No my grumpy friend. Paul was counter cult

@susie40647926 Hi Susie! It’s a struggle because something doesn’t seem right. For example, a few verses before Paul writes that women must keep silent, he writes: "…When you assemble, each one has a psalm, has a teaching, has a revelation, has a to...

@Here4Now0829 @sssssss09775798 “One wife husband” is an idiom not a requirement for them to be married men. Paul wasn’t married and is most definitely an overseer, and Timothy doesn’t appear to be married either. “If a MAN desire…” is a bad translat...

@Chainsaw59598 All scripture is inspired, including 1Co 14:34-35. Like Paul does

Except fidelity to the Biblical instruction on a matter requires proper exegesis

@jtdxn_ @914Ann "For what business of mine is it to judge outsiders? Do you not judge those who are within the church? But those who are outside, God judges. Remove the evil person from among yourselves" (1Co 5:12-13) "First of all, then, I urge tha...

@jtdxn_ Stephen Wolfe is advocating for tighter integration of church and state.

@jtdxn_ @gxp11 @MikeWingerii Or how about “thou shalt not legislate Christianity”? The apostles were politically neutral. Paul says simply to pray for those in authority so that we might be able to lead a tranquil life. "2:1 First of all, then, I ur...

@jtdxn_ @gxp11 @MikeWingerii I say our morality because it depends on a belief in and submission to the God of the Bible. It’s not subjective, but it’s not our job to legislate nonbelievers to repent. The government may or may not affirm LGBTQ. It s...

@Grump_Old_Man @BahBahBased @MikeWingerii Yes but it’s referring to a specific wife who needs first to learn the truth before she teaches. Paul cannot meet his own qualifications. You think that’s the correct interpretation? “If a man” is “if anyon...

@BahBahBased @zie95776 @MikeWingerii Paul didn’t write that American women were more easily deceived. He wrote that because of the time sequence between the first man and the first woman Adam wasn’t deceived but Eve was. Why? Because Adam witnessed G...

@zie95776 @BahBahBased @MikeWingerii Why did Paul write ‘a woman’ instead of ‘women’ like in vs9-10? Why did Paul use authentein, a verb form that is only found once in the Bible and 8 times in antiquity if he meant normal authority? Paul notes tha...

@HootyMcHootHoot @MikeWingerii Let’s focus on the literal sequence in Re 20. I believe this chapter is key to the premil view. Re 20:1-3 describes Satan being bound for 1,000 years. This literal interpretation contrasts with the postmil view that se...
