@EkIesou @smashbaals It is correct to say that ‘a woman’ can either refer to a specific woman/wife or a generic woman/wife. The way we determine which it is is by the context. Paul’s reference to Adam and Eve as a prototypical couple and the “She…the...

@WizardTraveling In addition Paul is adding in Kings in that he is saying to pray for ALL men EVEN kings and EVEN the false teachers. This is an extension of the whole (all men) with specific people picked out for a reason, but it doesn’t have anythi...

@STEVEWA10865446 @paulogia0 What flaws are you referring to?

@avyargo @_nomadic_soul How am I twisting it by making sense of every detail in the grammar and the context? You have accepted an interpretation that doesn’t even make sense of the history where we have women like Deborah instructing and teaching me...

@ChristMount777 @JoWiKi Unity of the body is also very important. More important than you getting your way in everything or your own personal comfort. Your church may have only male leaders but cooperating with others that have female leaders means t...

@TarienCole Being able to track people? All it takes is one meeting with the pastor and one question…he can then add them to the list. I suppose if the person is just visiting and not attending regularly then that could be treated differently. Even s...

@KillmanBuck @JoInAthensGa @Eric_Conn Right, so its not by scripture and church history nor by the majority of those who hold a particular viewpoint. Everything comes down to scripture and must be tested by it. 1Ti 3:16-17 tells us that scripture is ...

@pauldirks I wonder if he will respond so I can understand why he said this. The

@pauldirks It's a bit hard to frame it in a single sentence to capture everything carefully and completely, but the idea is that 1Co 5:11-13 has a meaning...unless you think the government is how God punishes sin. In that case, why say anything to th...

@KillmanBuck @JoInAthensGa @Eric_Conn Believing what scripture actually means leads to loss of biblical authority? What are you even talking about? I am not advocating for homos3xual pastors. Your assuming these are conflated is quite telling. I'm ...

@KillmanBuck @JoInAthensGa @Eric_Conn I'm not progressive. I prefer mutualist as it is not about grasping for rights. I follow scripture as fully inspired in every word taken in context as fully authoritative and complete for every good work. You s...

@rofbethany @DefendTheSheep However, head does not mean master or commander, but source or origin. Adam’s flesh and bone is the origin or source of Eve. Jesus’ flesh and blood is the origin or source of life of the church. Take the following from a ...

@KillmanBuck @JoInAthensGa @Eric_Conn The authority to rule over creation was given by God to both the man and the woman in Ge 1:28. Ge 3:16 is God speaking to Eve about what will happen not God commanding Adam to rule over his wife. The idea of male...

@KillmanBuck @JoInAthensGa @Eric_Conn Making disciples means to teach people everything that Jesus taught the apostles and to do it. It doesn’t mean everyone is a bishop or teacher or apostle, but it doesn’t in any way refer to role differences which...

@RoiRogers2 @ZA_Legacy @smashbaals Marriage has its foundation in the first man and woman. Since Adam was formed first and then Eve from his flesh and bone, it is said that the husband is the source or origin of his wife. It portrays an intimate one ...

@AceFreeman1234 @SpecterAndBride But Paul wasn’t referring to that, was he? Else women would be all covered head to toe which also presumes that a cloth prevents angels from seeing things (why wouldn’t the roof of the church or one’s home prevent the...

@revjeffvox @DDunbear @RevChrisDavis A godly woman preaching truth and serving as an elder or pastor is never listed as a sin in scripture. To prefer a man because you feel it is right is one thing; to disfellowship someone because they don’t agree ...
