@ronhenzel @YouHaveFought It’s good to be passionate and of course we wouldn’t hold to a belief if we didn’t really think it was true. It’s also hard to change your beliefs. Further, one may have a lot of followers or may get removed from your chur...

@YouHaveFought @ronhenzel Wow…he won’t baptize you until you believe in Calvinism? That doesn’t sound very healthy. I also spoke to pastors of two churches who wouldn’t allow me to be a leader because I’m not a Calvinist, but they certainly would a...

@BrandonCWat @William_E_Wolfe So Jesus made an exception to Constantine which Wolfe implies is now our mandate? Jesus said⎯and with all authority by the way⎯ "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciple...

@Schweinzig @HwsEleutheroi I realize we disagree…but even most complementarians

@theophysicus @HwsEleutheroi I think the linkage is there when someone’s views are because of culture and not because of scripture. But for those who get there by examining scripture, it does not lead to progressivism. Anything you do to prioritize...

@OccamsBraiser @iheartJ37 @MikeWingerii You may have helped me find a better explanation in the lexicons so not only am I not embarrassed, I’m elated! I am able to read the Bible in context so I can understand it but sometimes these lexical resource...

@Chad4328 As a church leader, I wanted to find another Biblically faithful church, so I looked for it amongst my reformed brethren. They wouldn’t allow me to lead in their church. These pastors wouldn’t claim it was a primary issue, but a level “1....

@William_E_Wolfe The answer to patriarchalism and feminism which are on the right and left is egalitarianism. Egalitarians understand general differences between men and women but that these do not prevent qualified women from leadership. In fact, ...

@danieleleven32 A lot of people take Lewis as an authority. We have to get back

@BogdanOancea77 I'm not starting from a pre-conceived idea of egalitarianism. I was raised with the idea that women were not allowed to preach and that the leadership role was male only. The CBE article you linked makes the following comment: "In J...

@harmonizedgrace Depends on what you mean by "fundamental" as the biology is fundamental in every cell (XY vs XX chromosomes), but men and women are equally able to lead as they are both rulers. There was no hierarchy or authority structures created...

@BogdanOancea77 @BarakWatson @justasbefuddled @MikeWingerii When we are debating these issues, you cannot just quote the Bible, you have to explain it. What does head mean in this context? Is Paul referring to authority and hierarchy to explain the...

@justasbefuddled @MikeWingerii That is precisely what the egalitarian view is.

@MikeWingerii As an egalitarian, I agree with points #1-4. I take issue with #5 because it says there is an inherent hierarchy and authority structure between the husband and wife and between males and females in the church. That said, if you do a ...

@MikeWingerii But part of being a man does not mean being the authority over you

@LauraRicha42528 @_nomadic_soul @LifeWithoutLack @DrFrankTurek Huh? Jezebel? How does she seek authority over men? Ephesians 5:21 says “submit to one another in the fear of Christ.” That means men submitting to women and women submitting to men. ...

@LauraRicha42528 @_nomadic_soul @DrFrankTurek The only connection with God’s order was deception. At least that’s how Paul parses Gen 1-3 in 1 Tim 2:11-15. It’s not about authority. It’s about a man who had been given knowledge completely failing ...

@ianfranklin @MikeWingerii The only scripture related to authority over either husband and wife is the following: “The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise the wife to her husband. The wife does not have authority over h...

@_nomadic_soul Church is about people. It is very understandable how you feel. I recently got pushed out of a church and 3 that I looked into won't ever allow me into leadership because I am egalitarian. The church I'm now going to seems focused o...

@CherylSchatz Do you think that in all cases authority has to be explicitly given? We are not given the words God spoke to Eve but we can see from her testimony that God repeated the command to both of them because she says God said and uses plural ...

@Journeyman_Joe @MikeWingerii I should have been more clear. Mike said that Adam had authority over Eve before the fall. BTW, in Gen 3:16 God was speaking to Eve, not Adam. God was prophesying how their relationship would be affected. Where did G...

@MikeWingerii MikeW (Calvary Chapel)⎯where in the Bible do we find that God gives Adam authority over Eve? According to John the Baptist, "A person can receive only what is given them from heaven." (John 3:27) Where did God give Adam authority over...

@MikeWingerii @mporeilly While you may be right that comp's generally take verse 12 as meaning a woman cannot teach and shouldn't have authority over a man, how they apply it is all over the map. The problem becomes that the New Testament doesn't gi...

@jenniferfox88 @William_E_Wolfe Yes, everyone says this is clear, but no one seems to be able to explain all the details of this passage. - Why is Paul using singular instead of plural if his instruction applies to all women? Or is it only a married...

@_JustWriting @TomBuck @DaveSmith2019 Paul writes “I do not permit a woman to teach or have authority over a man…”. Some questions: - Why does Paul say “I do not” instead of “God doesn’t”? - When Paul clearly knows how to use the plural of women in v...

@jasonkeithallen I think Rick is referencing 1 Tim 2:11-12 here. You don’t think this means that women cannot teach or exercise authority over men? So the only thing that the SBC is standing for is that women cannot hold the position of pastor/elde...
