Two Gifts Or One

The bride of Christ has been given gifts but are teacher and pastor two gifts or one

@JohnRayKite @TheLaurenChen 1Ti 2:12 says “I do not permit a woman to teach (didaskain)…” yet you say she can teach. How did you get that conclusion? Isn’t the text clear?

ἄρσεν καὶ θῆλυ (arsen kai thely)

male and female (echoing Genesis 1:27 LXX)

δικαιόω (dikaioō)

to justify, to declare righteous

Greek construction difference: 'kai' instead of 'nor' for male and female, alluding to Genesis 1:27

Mike provides grammatical background on the Greek text of Galatians 3:28.

Walter Kaiser's argument from Thayer's lexicon and D.A. Carson's correction

Mike examines Walter Kaiser's 1986 Christianity Today article supporting the refutation view.

The key question: does James use 'justified' in the theological sense or the dictionary sense?

Applying the semantic range principle directly to the James 2 debate

Three senses of 'justified' (dikaioo): (1) made right with God, (2) declared righteous, (3) shown/proved/vindicated as right

Laying out the semantic range of the Greek word for justification

Luke 7:29 — tax collectors 'justified God' proves 'justified' can mean vindicated/validated, not salvifically made righteous

Key proof text showing non-theological use of 'justified' in the New Testament without needing Greek knowledge

Conclusion of hermeneutical argument: 'justified' in James 2 means proven/demonstrated to be right, not salvifically made righteous

Applying the Luke 7:29 argument back to James 2

James 2:21 — 'justified by works when he offered Isaac' uses 'justified' in the vindication sense, not the salvific sense

Interpreting the justification of Abraham in James 2:21

James 2:24 — 'justified by works and not by faith alone' means vindicated before people, not made righteous before God

Direct interpretation of the most contested verse in the passage

How to see God as a loving father: filter feelings about God through Scripture, especially Romans 5:8 — God loved us while we were sinners.

Question from Kaisu (Finland) about feeling that God is indifferent or impatient with her.

30..Kai is not like Mark
