@iroquoisplskn87 That’s a false dichotomy. Egalitarianism is not the absence of order but the presence of mutual submission (Eph 5:21), shared responsibility, and co-laboring without rank-based domination. Anarchy rejects all structure; egalitarian...

Unless of course, patriarchy isn’t Biblical Christianity. If you want to follow Christ, then you won’t look for power and control, but “be subject to one another in the fear of Christ” (Eph 5:21). I’m egalitarian and all 3 of my children came to Ch...

@Emotionscoach The claim that egalitarian teaching harms marriage is a ridiculou

@Emotionscoach @B_Christs_Amb @MikeWingerii And Mike also misreads these scholars a number of times. And I disagree with a number of conclusions from egalitarians, but who can blame them as they are seeing legitimate problems with the complementarian...

@Emotionscoach @igarglewithfire @MikeWingerii Yes, absolutely. And Titus 3:10 "Reject a divisive person after a first and second warning" applies to what he is doing by calling people to repent of teaching secondary differences and calling people to ...

@Emotionscoach I plan to post a thread on this but I’ve been busy! I kept asking him to rescind his call for egalitarian teachers to repent of teaching egalitarian views of scripture. It’s divisive. Here’s what he replied to someone who asked. Pret...

@cb75075 @Rach4Patriarchy I’m not using edge cases. What edge cases? I work with a number of women Jn engineering who are fully qualified and capable. Some are better than 99% of the men. I support Israel’s egalitarianism. Why would I want women to ...

@Rach4Patriarchy I’m egalitarian and conservative. Do those categories co-exist

@MackDonahue Is Mike saying that egalitarian ‘sin’ is a lesser sin or a greater

@MackDonahue "What makes his request for repentance sinful and yours justified?" Mike is asking egalitarian teachers to repent of something he himself claimed was secondary while acknowledging that repentance has to do with matters of sin. My call ...

@MackDonahue He surely can be disappointed that egalitarianism is spreading and becoming more popular. So? Fix that by gently and patiently correcting it with the truth (as he sees it). PS&gt; I am currently part of a complementarian church. I don't...

@MackDonahue No, you are twisting my words!! I am asking him to repent for being divisive. He is telling me to repent from spreading egalitarian teaching. How is he being divisive? By telling those *he himself* claims differ in secondary matters to...

I believe the reason why Mike chose to block me is because he has had enough of

"...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...

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...

@colinsmo Can you not be conservative and egalitarian?

@BiblicalBeauty @DwightsWordOTD This is a good question. Egalitarians don’t maintain that there are no distinctions between male and female. It is just that those distinctions are why they need to work together and they don’t justify having gender ro...
