Analogy to Trinity denial: some reject the Trinity not from scripture but from a philosophical conviction that 'three in one' is impossible, then read the Bible through that lens.

Bypassing the Bible — analogy

hermeneutics Trinity philosophical presuppositions
Mike Winger idea 2022-03-07

This anti-patriarchy presupposition leads egalitarian scholars to one of two conclusions: the Bible does not teach patriarchy, or the Bible teaches it and is wrong.

Mistake #3: Evils of patriarchy

egalitarian scholarship Bible and patriarchy biblical authority
Mike Winger idea 2022-03-07

Mistake #6: Thinking submission is inherently evil — submission was not a bad word in biblical culture, though it is in modern culture.

Mike's critique of Belleville's sexual desire interpretation: it doesn't describe a recognizable perennial problem for women and doesn't feel like a curse.

Problems with the sexual desire interpretation

Linda Belleville Gen 3:16 sexual desire interpretation
Mike Winger idea 2022-03-14

Belleville's counter: all three uses of 'teshukah' are linked by gender/intimacy -- she interprets Gen 4:7 as a lion wanting to 'consume' (intimate metaphor) Cain. Mike finds this forced.

Belleville's attempt to maintain the intimacy reading across all three uses

Song 7:10 Linda Belleville teshukah Gen 4:7
Mike Winger idea 2022-04-13

Women were church planters and evangelists; laboring 'in the gospel' points to evangelism

Mike draws positive conclusions about women's ministry scope from the terminology.

Priscilla Aquila women evangelists
Mike Winger idea 2022-04-13

1 Corinthians 16:19 does not prove Priscilla and Aquila led a house church

Mike examines Keener's second reference for house church leadership.

1 Corinthians 16:19 Priscilla Aquila Craig Keener
Mike Winger idea 2022-04-13

Conclusions on Priscilla/Aquila: Keener overstates, but women can teach men theology

Mike balances his critique with a positive complementarian conclusion.

Definition of deacon: can mean generic servant or official church position

Mike defines the semantic range of 'diakonos.'

Craig Blomberg on early church deaconesses: common for centuries with pastoral care and baptism roles

Mike cites historical support for women deacons.

Two Views on Women in Ministry Craig Blomberg deaconess history
Mike Winger idea 2022-04-13

Egalitarian contradiction: if 1 Timothy 3:11 has women deacons, it proves women are excluded from elders in 3:1-7

Mike identifies an internal contradiction in egalitarian argumentation.

1 Timothy 3:1-7 1 Timothy 3:11 women deacons internal contradiction eldership
