@MarkGrote Often when it can be either a man or a woman the male construction is the default. Paul doesn’t say “must not be a woman,” he uses a gender neutral pronoun “tis” and also he clearly doesn’t mean married as Paul advocated for singleness an...

@BibleBashed Wait...women are unable to be courageous??? 😮 You might be thinking of “Be on the alert, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong.” (1 Corinthians 16:13, NASB 2020) However, this is in the plural and Paul is writing to the chur...

@JonKismetCalvin @ymmotrojam @Deigratia1985 @ich1ban123456 @kelcy_lowry Hi John, I'm not sure that Artemis is something Paul is bringing into the context of 1 Timothy. Paul references: 1. v4: fables and genealogies (which cause disputes rather than ...

@TheYagosto @AverageSc0t @MikeWingerii @NathanFinochio Indeed, the verses seem to suggest a restriction and wrestling with them is a good and necessary thing. I appreciate when complementarians move from simply quoting the verse to trying to dive de...

@AverageSc0t @TheologySteve @MikeWingerii @NathanFinochio I think this is hard for a man with authority over women to understand. Or perhaps functionally you act in a very egalitarian way 98% of the time and only pull your trump card to expedite dec...

@NathanFinochio @MikeWingerii I think it’s a mischaracterization to say complementarians hate women. They see them as equals but treat them as having a subservient role to males at least while on this earth and believe that this is the Biblical mode...

This is the fruit of a husband who exists to be served rather than to serve, who thinks that he doesn't have to obey the instruction "subject yourselves to one another in the fear of Christ" (Eph 5:21). “But Jesus called them to Himself and said, 'Y...

@pauldirks @DeeGoingsGirl @KaeleyT Yes, everyone who is able bodied should do something to contribute, though clearly there are obvious cases where this doesn't apply. But are you saying that if there is something she isn't keeping up with, your opt...

@IdiocracyTL @smashbaals Ok, except the Bible is not fiction.

@pauldirks @KaeleyT @rockyredpanda That’s sounds like a very different way of characterizing this than a sin issue. By the way, my mom used to make my sandwiches when I was younger but when I grew up I started making my own. What’s the deal with ma...

@MarkGrote What type of speech? Women are assumed to be praying and prophesying in 1 Cor 11:5. Paul’s concern was not about silencing one gender but about the orderly use of the gifts for the benefit all: 1 Corinthians 14:31 (NASB 2020): “For you ...

@dougponder @CovenantReform2 Heb 5:12 says “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 need milk, not solid food!” If they could all be teachers, what’...

@dougponder They avoid the term shepherding? But shepherding isn’t in Titus 2:6-8 regarding men either. But what each is doing is shepherding. No doubt women have a role to shepherd younger women just as men should shepherd younger men. The latte...

@ronhenzel It’s not about who moved, but that the straight jacket was in place to start with. Binding churches to unbiblical restrictions results in conflict and division. Of course one thinks it’s biblical and another thinks they are wrong. But it...

@ronhenzel The pre-Luther Waldensiens understood that women could be leaders, so this isn’t new. The problem is that this is a secondary issue, and so one church operating with male only leadership should be able to remain in fellowship with another...

@Ripple_Train @ZacharyGarris You are correct that the Greek only says sons. It also says that all are sons, which you’ve also correctly noted. However, if all are sons and receive the inheritance of sons then that clearly indicates that there is no...

@ZacharyGarris But an unrepentant, willful lifestyle of sin means you are outside of the faith. Again, where—and you must provide this—is a woman speaking, teaching, leading, overseeing, pastoring EVER stated to be a sin or listed in any list of sin...

@ZacharyGarris Let me know what creed says that women cannot occupy positions of leadership or serve as a pastor or preach or teach truth. Next, you can take a look at any list of sin in scripture and you won’t find women speaking, teaching, leading...

@realvamphours @IssaDegen @smashbaals On the other hand, when a complementarian “exegetes” it, it’s usually them just quoting it. Many don’t even seem to recognize that Paul’s grammar and word usage is complicated in this personal instruction to Tim...
