@jeanlesar @smashbaals It sounds like in your church, women are not trained to be good theologians and teachers. How is that working out? It also seems you don't have much exposure to women outside

@WWUTTcom So what I hear you saying is that you don’t want to bother looking more carefully at this text because its just obvious to you that God forbids someone with a sex they were born with from teaching men. This despite the fact that I know man...

@3HillsMinor Are we talking again then? I’m not effeminate. I’m very much male. And I’m not twisting scripture just because you don’t agree with or like my exegesis. Paul is dealing with false teachers of any gender as false teaching does not bel...

@3HillsMinor @Rattle_Resists @Kdubtru @michael_ronning You are misinterpreting 1 Tim 2:12. You assume it's as clear as mud, but its just mud in the eye of the complementarians and Patriachists! Read chapter 1⎯how Paul refers to the purpose of stopp...

@graceforprize What translation are you looking at? "If a man" should read "if anyone"⎯ "Εἴ τις ἐπισκοπῆς ὀρέγεται..." τις means anyone or someone, not "a man". And yes, must be able to teach, but not to be considered "the teacher" as in the buck ...

@sympatheticNPC @graceforprize I think, however, that we still have teachers in the church in that elders must be able to teach. So the Holy Spirit does work through people. It's just that we shouldn't consider any elder or pastor as "the teacher" ...

@graceforprize @sympatheticNPC “But you are not to be called ‘Rabbi,’ for you have one Teacher, and you are all brothers. And do not call anyone on earth ‘father,’ for you have one Father, and he is in heaven. Nor are you to be called ‘teachers,’ for...

@thatlandinotho False teachers and deception is not limited to one biological se

@graceforprize Being able to teach is a gift. It not only declares, but explains and helps make difficult concepts easier to understand and digest. Teachers also help refute false teaching. If God chose women to tell the men, then the problem isn’...

@AJRigney @ZacharyGarris I don’t know if you have tried to instruct someone who is objecting constantly, but objections are frequent with false teachers because it seems they disagree on every point you make so you can’t get far. Often it takes quie...

@AJRigney @ZacharyGarris There’s nothing in this verse that suggests the issue is interruptions. The context is dealing with false teachers, and so the most natural explanation is that there is a deceived woman teaching false doctrine whose non-dece...

@wbigs2001 @CherylSchatz She’s a heretic for exposing a false teacher?

@Brian_Sauve The purpose of learning theology is to teach others everything Jesus taught his disciples. “In fact, though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you the elementary truths of God’s word all over again. You nee...

@playoncrutches @hfjohnsen @votemichelleppc You may think it’s stupid, but kids are like sponges taking in as gospel truth whatever they are told by teachers. They also respond to encouragement and peer pressure. Puberty is also a confusing time; i...

@LadyDemosthenes @OPRisely @pgklee @mark_petereit It’s in the grammar of the passage. I went through it in detail in that thread I attached…which should take much less time than even half of one of Mike Winger’s videos!! Paul left Timothy to stop f...

@JollyStine Yes, that’s right! The context informs us what is going on that spurred this letter from Paul to Timothy. Further, Paul speaks of two kinds of false teachers: those who blaspheme against what they know and those who are ignorant. Only ...

@conscious_emma @JohannSchultz7 @musicbykwiz @CaudilloNuclear That’s the right i

@sisi_siki_ In 1 Tim 2:11-15, Paul’s instruction to Timothy included dealing with false teachers like a specific deceived woman who was outside of the essentials. He wasn’t instructed to stop anyone from teaching the truth. This woman’s husband was...

@Based_Byzantine @HabitualLinest @Booksbyjess__ @smashbaals I’m taking what Paul said very seriously, in the context of the letter, understanding it was a personal correspondence between Paul and Timothy for the purpose of encouraging him in his role...

@blackmamba_btc @AEQEA @BrotherBoaz @nakedpastor But not all women teach false doctrine and there are men who also teach false doctrine. We cannot generalize something that Paul doesn’t generalize. He left Timothy in Ephesus to stop false teachers ...

@AEQEA @blackmamba_btc @BrotherBoaz @nakedpastor This isn’t about whether you like a male over a female teacher. You likely would see the problem with “I prefer a white male over a black male preacher” or “I prefer a wealthy person over a poor perso...

@MarkGrote Those are good points. May I suggest something that may help put this all together? In this first letter from Paul to Timothy, Paul left Timothy in Ephesus to stop false teaching, not to stop women from teaching true doctrine. Paul talks...

@ortrails @goteamcarr In this first letter from Paul to Timothy, Paul left Timothy in Ephesus to stop false teaching, not to stop women from teaching true doctrine. Paul talks about two types of false teachers: the deceived and those who are not. H...

@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...

@TaylorRMarshall Paul, Jude, Peter all talk about false teachers and false teach

@TakTik227f1 @Genichiro42069 @KaitlynSchiess That verse says "a woman". You cannot make it plural when it is singular. This is Paul's grammar and yes, its complicated, but Paul tended to write some things that are hard to understand (2 Pet 3:16). ...

@JohnMoo26668690 @IssacharsNexus What do you define a false teacher to be?

@JohnMoo26668690 @WillEhrendreich @ElizabethOstli1 My conclusions align with scholars like Dr. Craig Keener, Dr. Nijay Gupta, Dr. Gordon Fee, etc. I know many complementarians who disagree with me but do not call me a false teacher. And all of us h...

@Thygar @AngelaGraceLOU @L_T_Pearson @JustinPetersMin What came after John’s Baptism is not exactly minor. The had to explain “the way of God more accurately.” Yes, Apollos was important and was instrumental in the growth of the church at Corinth. ...

@L_T_Pearson @JustinPetersMin There were counterfeit letters from Paul so he frequently identified himself even writing at the end to show it was him (as his eyes were bad, so he wrote large letters). You are hypothesizing of course, which we have t...
