@RenOfMen The scriptures teach mutual submission for all in the body of Christ (Eph 5:21, Php 2:3-4). While egalitarian can sound like each is supposed to assert their rights, I think 'mutualist' is a better term and conveys the idea that each is sub...

@RenOfMen Actually, it seems that patriarchalists refuse to submit themselves to serve all including women. If we all mutually submitted, everything works out.

@RenOfMen Hmm. The women I know understand mutual submission. It seems it is rat

@ravensfoodblog @MikeWingerii This is because the church is not doing what they

@ravensfoodblog @MikeWingerii Yes, not everyone is an elder. Gifting and proven

@ravensfoodblog @MikeWingerii An elder has a special function and gifting in the body, but all in the body have the same authority to make disciples and to teach them to obey everything Jesus commanded to his disciples. Function—such as oversight—is ...

@ravensfoodblog @MikeWingerii Do you submit to the authority of the “vast majority” of scholars? “A woman” is in vvs11-12 and “the woman” (who is not Eve) is in v14 and the subject of v15 and is the anaphoric use of the article to provide specificit...

@ravensfoodblog @MikeWingerii I submitted to him by not forcing myself into leadership, but he doesn’t have the right to forbid what Jesus did not forbid, so he is in the wrong. If I am living in unrepentant sin and refuse to listen “even to the chu...

@ravensfoodblog @MikeWingerii Well, we are all to submit to each other because God has distributed His gifts differently to individuals and we are to benefit from these gifts and give of those gifts to others for their benefit (Eph 5:21). When you s...

@ravensfoodblog @MikeWingerii Well, yes, there are commands, but these are not made up simply by authority inherent in Paul himself such that he could tell you to sit or stand and you would have to obey or be struck with lightning. There are also a ...

@MikeWingerii Please let me know what church is obeying the following scriptures—I’d like to go there: "What is the outcome then, brothers and sisters? When you assemble, each one has a psalm, has a teaching, has a revelation, has a tongue, has an i...

@avyargo @MikeWingerii Disobeying God’s clear commands is sin. Yet which command

@Whatsinaname41 @AVER735 Exactly! But he’s going to then use "Eph 5:24: 'Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit in everything to their husbands.'" Yet he takes this in isolation forgetting the context of mutual submission a...

@slow_down_Jess @cjohnsonn0311 @_AndrewHale Well, again, Eph 5:21 says that the submission or subjection is reciprocal for all in the fear of Christ. If it is reciprocal, then no matter how you cache out the remainder of the chapter, it cannot then ...

The following comment is so over the top! If a woman being a pastor is grasping for what even Jesus didn't go after, then what are all the men who call themselves pastors doing??🤔 He thinks that we are to model one way submission, yet the Trinity i...

@landjax Let's rephrase. What authority does the elder have over me? Let's say I'm following scripture. Can they tell me to not follow scripture and I have to obey? So then, what authority do they have? We submit to them as they are serving to help t...

@landjax @Charb_izard No, they do not establish authority as in any sort of forc

@Charb_izard I’m a non-Christian for suggesting that godly women can teach true doctrine even to men? Wow. Did you confess patriarchy when you were baptized? “I believe in one God in 3 persons, that I’m a sinner and Jesus died for my sins…and the pa...

@sethhezekiah No, silly. Heresy has to do with the fundamentals of the faith. No one has to repent of mutual submission to be a Christian. All of the people you listed went along with the culture when it came to women at least to some degree or anot...

@jtdxn_ @gxp11 @MikeWingerii I say our morality because it depends on a belief in and submission to the God of the Bible. It’s not subjective, but it’s not our job to legislate nonbelievers to repent. The government may or may not affirm LGBTQ. It s...

@3GNRTX Ep 5:21 says “Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.” The “be subject” verb shown in the English you quoted from v22 is not in the Greek as it comes from v21. What does this mean? It means that whatever v22 and following are sayin...
