@baste_goblin @Revelation_14_7 @OnionPizza68693 @TomWarlord @EchoToaster_ @Eric_Conn So when Paul says subject yourselves to one another he didn’t mean husbands to wives or pastors to congregants or parents to children? And when he speaks of husban...

@Revelation_14_7 @TomWarlord @baste_goblin @EchoToaster_ @Eric_Conn @StoneChoir Wow, at 8m33s, he says that the wife interfaces to God through the husband just like a dog does through its owner! I’ve often thought complementarians treat wives like ch...

@Dan_NY_Giants As soon as you assume this is about authority, you have a problem. But it’s not about authority. It’s about “standing under” the other, even children, lifting them up to do what’s best for them. You trade your own personal desires to s...

@KimberleeJayneW @will_servant Who is saying that a man has to be the woman of the house? You are presuming your view in how you frame your response. We aren’t saying men are women, but there is significant overlap in our responsibilities. Both my w...

@ball_dummy @William_E_Wolfe You’re tired of it so it’s dishonest? The qualifying language has to do with character, not with the idea that the person must be a husband with multiple children since even Paul is unmarried and encouraged people to rem...

@kgaugelo_N @VoicesHead100 @3HillsMinor @Rattle_Resists @Kdubtru @michael_ronning Because wives were generally treated as slaves and property and a means to obtain children and not truly being loved by their husbands, so they subjected out of duty an...

@CatherineMcNiel @MegaChurchMouse @William_E_Wolfe Titus 2:3-5 primarily addresses older women, instructing them to be reverent in behavior, not slanderers or slaves to much wine. They are to teach what is good, and so train the young women to love t...

@Christosalithos @TheMuppetPastor Well, I’m not sure who you are talking about. Maybe there’s people who feel trapped. My wife is a physio and is extremely good at what she does. We raised 3 children without grandparents near us and without childc...

@itskellydiane My wife is a physio and a great one at that. We raised 3 children

@MaSoleil @TheMuppetPastor @DoctrineofTulip @autocorrect2_0 I agree with you, “faithful if married” is how I take it, but not sure what the Muppet thinks. Paul wasn’t married and most certainly also an elder so clearly being married or having childr...

@CSavedByGrace18 I’m glad that you believe women can share the gospel! The gospel is one of the most authoritative proclamations! If they can do this, why can’t godly women teach true doctrine inside the church?—yes, to other women and children, but...

@EtAbundatGratia No, none of those verses tell wives to "obey" their husbands li

@3HillsMinor Do you serve your children and their needs? Let me guess…you earn money, pay for their clothes, put a roof on them, make them dinner and clean up after and you are not subjecting yourself to fulfilling their basic needs? Who said anyth...

@TeamPapuForever @graceforprize Paul was both an apostle and overseer but not a husband. So this requirement cannot mean “must be married” but rather “if married, must be faithful.” The emphasis is on the “one.” For the same reason it doesn’t requ...

@graceforprize So women can teach ONLY the following: - WHO: younger women who are married - WHAT: to love their husbands and children Anything else (like theology or any other instruction) and to anyone else⎯these must by taught by the husband. Si...

@Robert_S_Morley @ronhenzel The concept of hating those who disobey God is relevant even for us. “If anyone comes to me and does not hate father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters—yes, even their own life—such a person cannot be my ...

@eltrucker87 @wbigs2001 @smashbaals Yes, he’s an apostle. Indeed, the qualifications are inspired from God and not just made up by Paul. But if a pastor or elder of overseer or bishop must be married and have multiple believing children, that means...

@Mockinglogos @DickSaban1 I have answered this already. If it means only a man, then Paul later says “women likewise…” showing he includes them as having the same qualifications. If it is referring to marital faithfulness, then singles and the marr...

@JrShines @M_Jensen23 @smashbaals Because there was a problem in many marriages due to how the wife was seen almost as property or for the purpose of producing children only or taking care of the house. In this master-slave type relationship, women ...

@Cadogan_Barde @The_Wry_Griot @Brian_Sauve You realize that no children were there waiting for the apostle Paul also, right? All singles male or female have the same issue. The vast majority don’t make the role of CEO…and probably don’t want it eit...

@sisi_siki_ Many feel that 1 Tim 3 and Titus 1 teach that elders or overseers must be men because it says “husband of one wife.” However, this is an idiom for faithful if married. It is clear Paul didn’t require marriage just as he didn’t require h...

@realfatapollo @MACNational You don’t think that you have a right to teach your children about their sexuality? You think the state has a right to override parental instruction in this area? This is not about protecting abuse; it is about parental ...
