@avyargo @neecygrace @MikeWingerii Who wrote Ruth, Esther and Hebrews? It's ok. I have some time. Why are you accusing me of "debunking biblical verses"? I am doing no such thing.

@SelectedDivine @immrbloo Don't you believe that people love the darkness because God hasn't regenerated them yet...? Why doesn't the scripture say this? It says "because their works were evil."

@garlicmofongo He seems to see both Adam and Eve as having a gendered rebellion to God in the fall. I don’t think I’ve heard that take before. Paul frames it as one being deceived and the other not with the reason being the time sequence of creation...

I find this statement from @MikeWingerii revealing. When someone says a woman cannot be a man I think of immutable differences not eldership. How do comps see the command for both to rule and women made in God’s image as limiting on women from autho...
