People get upset that I push so hard on the issue of women in leadership and exegeting the relevant scriptures which appear to restrict women in the New Testament. This is why.👇 https://t.co/4ZRfUab1

@EnderWender1 The context and how Paul uses it tells us what Paul means. Here’s a few resources that give source or origin as a possible meaning: 1️⃣ TDNDA The Theological Dictionary of the New Testament, Abridged in One Volume A. kephalḗ outside ...

@elyie_bliss @BBWoofield @harmonizedgrace First you have to ask the question if they are misinterpreting Paul. Paul wrote half of the New Testament, so it's a bit disingenuous to discount Paul's writing. Paul clearly wrote scripture, but if you cal...

@MaxLuder @MarkGrote @JollyStine You don't get requirements by inferring intention. Paul includes women in vs11. However, there's a big difference between including and forbidding. For example, there are only two people explicitly called elders in...

On the one hand, John has a point because to agree that scripture clearly teaches male only leadership and then to willfully ignore this is clear evidence of rebellion against the Bible. However, I want you to know that this is not what the New Test...

@BiffSport @3HillsMinor @Rattle_Resists @Kdubtru @michael_ronning The only reason you say it is a twisting is because you are looking it from the pretzel of your own view which has women forbidden from teaching with men present! We know scripture ha...

@ich1ban123456 @ymmotrojam We don't interpret scripture by history, but by the text. - No-one is specifically identified as a pastor in the New Testament except Jesus. - Only two identify as elders (Peter and John), and they self identify. - No one i...

@SimonReye @Duke456521 @MikeWingerii @hashim_warren The verb αὐθεντεῖν (authentein) that Paul used is used only this once in the New Testament (called a hapax logomenon) and was rarely used outside of the Bible. Linda Belleville did an exhaustive se...

@Duke456521 @Ashwin_Vengayil @MikeWingerii @hashim_warren Here's the thing. In the New Testament: - No one is explicitly identified as an overseer - Aside from Jesus, there's only two who are explicitly identified as elders (Peter and John) - No one...

@rbbowman7 @smashbaals The picture in the New Testament of the church is a willing subjection to rather than the idea of obedience (which can often refer to unwilling obedience). The difference is in the will. Our example is in Christ Himself who s...

@Sentinel_VA @smashbaals @TheJaredian Yes, the laws related to clean and unclean foods do not apply to believers after the resurrection of Jesus. However, Paul took a Nazarite vow in the New Testament (Acts 18:18; 21:23-26). He did this post-resurr...

@GraduatedBen @BonifaceOption Rabbinical Jews don’t read the New Testament silly. 1 Tim 2:11-15 is about a deceived woman teaching false doctrine in the church. The one passage that might highlight Jewish thinking is 1 Cor 14:34-35 which is actuall...

@CrtchtyMilenial @Bob_LeeIII @ortrails @goteamcarr I understand it as “spiritual murder” as this is based on its usage outside the Bible (it’s only used this one time in the New Testament) as I can see the linkage to what happened with Eve and Adam w...

@redeemed_zoomer I’m glad you don’t see it as heresy, as many do. I think you would benefit from revisiting the hard passages on women in the New Testament such as 1 Tim 2:11-15. In this letter, Paul leaves Timothy to stop false teachers. He ident...

@LauraRicha42528 @_nomadic_soul @LifeWithoutLack @DrFrankTurek Ok, Arthur, you are showing your ignorance here. Ephesians was written by Paul in the New Testament. See the dots under "subject yourselves" in verse 22? That means it's not in the Gre...

@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...
