As for your counter argument on 1Ti 2:12, since when is Paul forbidding the teaching of *correct* doctrine by anyone to anyone? The context is stopping false teaching. Also, he says male congregants s

@IemSparticus @harmonizedgrace Eph 5:21 does not limit submission to specific “lesser-greater” relationships; this is your imposed framework. The participle “ὑποτασσόμενοι” is reciprocal. Paul applies mutual submission to marital dynamics, elevatin...

@IemSparticus @harmonizedgrace Your claim that submission here flows from "lesser to greater" authority (wives to husbands, children to parents, slaves to masters) is inconsistent with Paul's pattern. The instruction to husbands to love their wives (...

@IemSparticus @harmonizedgrace The bridge doesn't contain hierarchy or authority

@tattered_bible Many women avoid submission, seeing it as negative, and likely because patriarchal men see it as one sided. But understanding marriage as mutual submission all of the sudden doesn't seem so dangerous or wrong. I think most of these w...

@Matthew56193629 @mtnhousewife While Paul can quote Gk philosophers, in no instance does he use them as the basis for his teaching nor does he double down on the culture. “The Pharisees say the woman’s place is in the home, but I tell you ‘and also s...

@LRopa21333 @kenalexander77 @RealDavidReece My take of what the Bible says is that there is a willing mutual submission, not that there is no submission. In the first century, wives’ submission was out of duty, not love like they did for Christ. The ...

@PatrickHen1776 @AJMxya @harmonizedgrace 3000 years? I think not because the the apostles didn’t restrict women and think that only wives submit. Further, many godly men and women have been wrong in the past…all the more if they are following what t...
