Male Headship： Is it REALLY Biblical？ Women in Ministry part 8

The “picture” you drew was painful but true. I for one will never confess my “sin” of teaching the bible to men unless Grudem and Moore can show me from the bible where God calls it sin. Otherwise I w...

Cheryl, I have been familiar with Matt Slick’s ministry for years. I share many of his views regarding the sovereignty of God, spiritual gifts, etc., but on this issue I have to demur. His condescend...

Don, It’s sad to see that some Christians would launch an ad hominem your way by accusing you of falsely portraying a male . . or worse, knowing that you are a male, yet making fun of you instead and...

Ryan, Thanks son for the reminder that dealing with Christians is sometimes akin to skillfully dealing with the cults where you must win them to truth in a loving and non-combative way. I do have to ...

“Yes, Slick is a Calvinist. But I should also point out that not all (certainly most however) Calvinists are opposed to women in ministry.” This fair and kind comment is a nice segue way into a brief...

*The Reformed Movement of today desperately needs a renaissance of liberty and freedom. I believe that God’s bringing it in perfect time, and we are here for such a time as this. I’m just not sure how...

Cheryl, I was very sorry to read Kamilla’s response. I thought your rules of engagment were very protective for her. And I agree that a public correction is the only option here. We must all test ever...

Lin, I don’t have the book either, but I’ve been looking for more quotes. Here are some interesting observations from [someone who has it](http://pcrucifer.blogspot.com/search/label/Systematic%20Theo...

Dear Cheryl: Subordinationism is a heresy of very long standing, that re-entered the protestant movement soon after the Reformation through Socinianism.  These people inherit the argumentaton of the A...

Hi Charis, I cannot presume to know God’s heart on this matter, but I think that it has something to do with God’s sovereignty and allowing evil to exist for those who want to practice evil.  I coul...

Oh, thank you for this! I was more than willing to be quiet about gender differences until two things became glaringly obvious: 1. They indirectly plant the poisonous idea that we are not part of the...

Paula, You said: > I believe your stalkers are in this category. They are turning the lost away and injuring the faith of the weak; they give Christianity a bad name. They need to be taught a lesson...

An excellent article about the relationship between Deborah and Barak.  It has always amused me that certain writers, who say they believe in God’s sovereignty, when they come to this story, suddenly ...

Lin, You are welcome to post any of your research on the LXX when you have it. Frank, The issue of the sovereignty of God has also puzzled me when those who say they believe fully in God’s soverei...

Deborah became Judge at a time when Israel was experiencing a spiritual and moral decline, partly due to the loss of their national leaders, Moses and Joshua. “In those days there was no king in Israe...

Cheryl, you are precious to me so please take care of yourself. I do agree that Jesus never fails so we must keep our eyes on Him. I was reading something a few days ago about those in the Body who hu...

Lin, Thank you for your tender words! It is most unfortunate when Christians hurt other Christians whether out of fear, ignorance, or plain old cruelty.  Strong internal hurt can bring stress and a...

Don, I have already asked you previously what ordering of the items are not sequential and why you cannot put them into a single sequential narrative. It seems to me that your paradigm doesn’t allow...

Don, You said: > #2 “A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds.” Ralph Waldo Emerson does not explain the difference between foolish and wise consistency. Who are we to say that it is...

#16 Dr. Willingham, > I am still looking, however, for your comment on the husband of one wife. Did I miss it somewhere. Regarding “husband of one wife” and “keeping his children under control”, the...
