  1. three beings involved in the Fall of mankind, the serpent was cursed:Gen 3:14 upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life: KJV the man was cursed: Gen 3:19 19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return. KJV and the woman was cursed: Gen 3:16 16 Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee. KJV the serpent is still crawling, the man is still laboring for bread. But with some women: no way will man ever rule over them, no matter who said it! can't put all the blame on women though for man has let the woman labor for the food also. so should it be "Women in Authority" shouldn't it be "both man and women under the Authority Of God" Christ/God over the Church, man over the home, while the whole house submits to the Lord!
  2. I beg the Difference in your understanding of the Authority of the prophet of God. The prophet himself had no Authority. they were mouth pieces/vessels for God. It was God speaking and it was the Authority of God they were disobeying, if they chose not to listen to the Man of God. In those days The prophet could bring news/warnings of things being done wrong in certain cities. and warnings from God to turn from the evil ways. So some cities that feared what God would say, would try and to keep the prophet from coming into town, one way would send their children out as so happened with your reference. Second you make a grave mistake as many others do, the physical death does not mean, that the kids were evil, or that they would end up in hell. in those days the sins of the parents could be passed on even to the fourth generation. the Children would be in that instance obeying their parents or even the elders of that city. sort of like the death Of David's child, the child was the one that died but David had done the sin. But David said that the Child can not come back to me. But one day I may go to the Child. You judge these kids in your reference wrongly, for if they were obeying their parents, it is good to obey your parents.
  3. my friend I have the most upright respect for the Word of God, but unless you are the pastor that they have chosen to reside over the wedding, all you are concern with doesn't concern you. Do you think that God has not covered all this before he drew them together. Did Rebekah even know Isaac before she ageed to marry Him???? I was 21 when I married my 18 year old bride, that was 34 years ago, and we are still together Thanks for the Glue (Jesus) that held us together so I think your not marry before 35 would be bad advice. how old do you think the Mother of Jesus, Mary was when She got married. A lot of marriage in the bible times were arranged marriages with very little love, if any to begin with. we don't live hundreds of years old like they did in the Bible days, if one waits til 35 to get married, a few years of loving each others and then children, they would bearound 53 before their oldest kid turned 16, that's insane!
  4. Did everyone overlook the part that both felt like God has brought them together. think upon, Moses refused God said he couldn't give a good speech, Jonah run from God and the people God was wanting him to minister to. Ever been in a church, that you felt like God wanted you there but at first you felt like a fish out of water, but you hung in there and everything worked out?
  5. Jw's had to changed their doctrine on the 144,000. it was that this was all that was going to be in, then when their number grew to 144,000. that had to have somewhere to put any one else, So the first 144,000 are going to be all that go to Heaven. and any Jw's after that will occupy the new earth. of course this must show that they failed the read the very next verses after the 144,000, NWT 9 After this I saw, and look! a great crowd, which no man was able to number, out of all nations and tribes and peoples and tongues,*+ standing before the throne and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes;+ and there were palm branches in their hands.+ 10 And they keep shouting with a loud voice, saying: “Salvation we owe to our God, who is seated on the throne,+ and to the Lamb.” If they can number 144,000 into heaven then why would there be a number which no man can number, there before the throne. also they can't explain when Jehovah died! NWT 8 “I am the Al′pha and the O·me′ga,”*+ says Jehovah* God, “the One who is and who was and who is coming, the Almighty.” NWT And he laid his right hand on me and said: “Do not be afraid. I am the First+ and the Last,+ 18 and the living one,+ and I became dead,+ but look! I am living forever and ever,+ and I have the keys of death and of the Grave if you ask them about REv. 1: 17-18 they used to respond that this Is Jesus claiming to be Jehovah, excuse you just told me that Jesus was a prophet of God and Now in scriptures He is claiming to be God. if He is not Who He claims to be then is He a prophet of God? Not sure if they have changed this doctrine yet haven't talked with one lately
  6. 2 Cor 13:5-9 5 Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates? 6 But I trust that ye shall know that we are not reprobates. 7 Now I pray to God that ye do no evil; not that we should appear approved, but that ye should do that which is honest, though we be as reprobates. 8 For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth. 9 For we are glad, when we are weak, and ye are strong: and this also we wish, even your perfection. KJV Paul said for that what I should do, I do not. and that what I should not do. that I do. Let me share a story. right after I got married, I saw an elderly friend of the family, that I hadn't saw in awhile. he said that he had heard that I got Married and wanted to know if I had any kids yet. I said Lord< I can't afford any kids. His response was. Let me tell you this, young man, If you wait until you can afford to have kids, to have kids. You will never have any kids. so let me tell you this to all the Lordship salvation people, if you wait until you are righteous enough to call upon the name of the Lord, then you will never be able to call upon the name of the Lord. If by repenting first, you make yourself presentable to the Lord, Then it is no Longer Grace that you are saved by, and you are in no need of Mercy. For you have made yourself ready for salvation, again let me say this with all the love of Christ I can, if we are saved by Grace, but that grace is dependent upon what we do, then your faith is not in Christ and Him crucified, but faith is in US! and what we can do. very scary doctrine of Grace, if I earn my Grace then it is no more unmerited Love, for I have earned it. to believe that salvation can be earned by repenting is the same to believe that one can buy or earn the Gift of God. Acts 8:20 20 But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money. KJV Scriptures says to "WORK OUT' your salvation. not "WORK FOR" V. McGee says that lordship salvation spells salvation different than Faith alone salvation. they spell it "DO" Christ left us something to do, we spell it "DONE" He done it all!
  7. Romans 10: says we must believe with the Heart that God hath raised Him from the dead and confess with our mouth Him, Lord. the problem with Lordship salvation is one gets the cart in front of the horse. and preach that there is something we can do to get saved or there is things we have to do to keep ourselves saved. if either were possible then Jesus would not had to die, there would had been another way. When God said when I see the travail of His soul, I shall be satisfied. What else is there for man to do to add to that satisfaction , but believe/faith. My righteousness at It's best is filthy rags, I must take on His righteousness, unless my righteousness exceeds the righteousness of the scribes, I must take on His righteousness. It is His works That I depend on, not that of myself least I boast. You can't work a good work for anything unless you are attached to the true vine. Romans 12 :1 says we need to present our bodies a living sacrifice Holy and acceptable, for this is our reasonable service, that is addressed to the Brethren, because we are to do these works because we are saved not to get saved. A reasonable service for what God did for us. not to get saved. With Lordship salvation, one has to depend on what they can do. their faith is in their works and not in Christ alone. He is the foundation and corner stone of our faith. as the ones that were not allowed in, and they cried look at the works WE DID in your name! Many will be deceived. if we are saved they will know us by our fruits. If we are saved we will bear the fruit of the Spirit that dwells in us. that is why some thought they were saved but had not ministered to those sick, those in prison, those that were naked or hungered. those that had done those things had done them For Christ and not for themselves. If I receive any Glory for my works, I will lay that glory at His Feet one day, for it is him that All glory is due. 1 John 2:1-2 2 My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: 2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. KJV Lordship salvation makes salvation something we have earned. and not that of a Gift of God. Rom 6:19-23 19 I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness. 20 For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness. 21 What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death. 22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. 23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. KJV
  8. Adam and Eve had a belly button that is not debatible the belly button comes from the umbilical cord that is in the womb, Adam and Eve both were formed/created not birthed, so why would they have a bellybutton?
  9. unless your's exceeds the scribe's, can only mean the righteousness of Christ inputted to man, is the only hope for man!
  10. DR: I don't know if it can be proven from scriptures, but where it refers to "BOOKS". Some Preach that there is a book of life and everyone that ever lived is in this book and then there is a Lamb's book of Life, where every Blood bought soul's name is written. as well as the debate of the rapture, many deny the rapture, while many preach the rapture. 1 thes. 4 speaks of an event where those that are asleep in Christ are raised first. please take note that many can not see. they are already judged to be "IN Christ" before they are raised. then we which are alive, speaking of the brethren in Christ, are taking up to be with them. this has to be a separate event from when ALL the dead are raised. from Rev. 19, to rev 22 will be the scriptures you will need to study. I will try to highlight some points that many can't see. for they have to wrap scripture( to make it say what they need it to say) around their doctrine instead of making their doctrine fit scripture. Also they will have to say that Rev. in not in chronological order. to make it fit their doctrine. But when John says and this happened and then this happened, it can't be anything but in chronological order. Rev 19:6-9 6 And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth. 7 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. 8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints. 9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God. KJV Now please take note two people are mentioned here; THE BRIDE/the Church, and they which are called unto the supper/ the guest. Note That the marriage is come. the Bride is there by way of the rapture not resurrection. now many will say that we the Church comes back with Christ for the last and great battle. I believ this to be a false teaching, for how many Kings take their Bride into battle. so let's look to scripture for those that will battle and reign with Christ. Take note this is the First resurrection which occurs after the marriage is ready. Rev 20:4-5 4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. 5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. KJV the first resurrection is of the ones that were beheaded and had refused the mark of the beast, this is the Great tribulation saints thus the first will be last and the last first. But the "rest of the dead" there is still some that needs to be resurrected. this will be the old testament saints/the guest will be called to the marriage supper. Rev 20:11-13 11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. 12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. 13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. KJV now here in verse 13. "hell" can be translated as grave, many will claim the KJB is wrong for using "Hell" and not grave, but if to be absent from the Body is to be presence with the Lord for a Christian, then to absence from the body for a unbeliever, hell and grave is the same thing. hopes this help. so as scriptures says those in hell will be judged according to their works, and this is where many will preach degrees of hell. works has nothing to do with salvation, 1 Cor 3:14-15 14 If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. 15 If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire. KJV "BUT THE MAN/HE HIMSELF SHALL BE SAVED"
  11. 2 Cor 11:14-15 14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. 15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness ; whose end shall be according to their works. KJV in the end times the Anti-Christ will show signs and wonders and by doing so, will deceive many. this two sets of verses you show do not contradict but work hand and hand. the kingdom of satan will fall, and Jesus says it must be divided before it can fall. in the end times satan ministers will be casting out demons, they will do this so that they can deceive others that they are from God. but by doing so they will be dividing their own kingdom, for destruction.
  12. Acts 21:8-12 8 And the next day we that were of Paul's company departed, and came unto Caesarea: and we entered into the house of Philip the evangelist, which was one of the seven; and abode with him. 9 And the same man had four daughters, virgins, which did prophesy. 10 And as we tarried there many days, there came down from Judaea a certain prophet, named Agabus. 11 And when he was come unto us, he took Paul's girdle, and bound his own hands and feet, and said, Thus saith the Holy Ghost, So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man that owneth this girdle, and shall deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles. 12 And when we heard these things, both we, and they of that place, besought him not to go up to Jerusalem. KJV This was after the resurrection and look not only did this man that was not of the original Apostles prophesy. But his daughters prophesy was well.
  13. I had a dream once, a lot of people were in a room, and the news was that Jesus was coming and we were all excited about it, my Friend, Bill was there with me, someone I looked up to spiritually. we were talking about how great it would be to finally see Jesus. As this great light started to fill the room. I looked around and saw my friend slipping out through a door. I yelled at him to come back he was going to miss Jesus. then I thought why did he leave just as Jesus was appearing. Then a voice answered my question; he doesn't feel worthy to be in My presence. I discussed this with my friend, and he said it was true as great as God had already worked through him, he never felt worthy to be used of God. I think God has brought my dream back to my remembrance, as I read yours. I Believe that whenever God raises you up. you are up the ladder with no where to hide. You feel uncomfortable, it puts you on shaky ground. your term luckly I fell in a church where a few were praying. tells me that you feel more comfortable being unseen. and happy to be as a pray warrior behind the scenes. I believe God has a great ministry for you in that Church, that will lift you up where that you may be seen by all. When the manifestation of God puts you on that ladder you won't have to speak that Jesus is the answer, for If God raises you up, people will know that it is Jesus working and not you. So get out of the prayer room, and get back on the ladder, there's a work to do for the Kingdom. I share this with you, however feel that u already know this, so let this be confirmation you seek. and now if Jesus is the answer, that ladder will also be on solid ground. so climb high my friend for His glory, power and kingdom.
  14. I do believe Paul was credited for writing 1 Cor., was he not so if in his writing he would say :1 Cor 13:9 9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. KJV . I do believe Paul was including himself as having prophesying. also my friend where you also erred is there is prophecy concerning the Gospel which is complete with scripture, But God said in the Old testament" will I not tell my friend, what I am going to do. God telling Abraham that he was going to destroy a city had nothing to do with the gospel. Jesus said I no longer call u servants but friends. Jesus telling the disciples when they go into he city they will find a colt tied. had nothing to do with the gospel. Paul was prophesied to that he was not to go observe the Passover, this type of prophecy has nothing to do with the Gospel,( also note that the one that gave Paul this prophecy was not one of the 12 apostles, which would also blow a hole in the doctrine that only the original apostles had the Gifts) but also this prophecy was a warning to a friend of God. Sorry you can't believe that God could give, someone He loves and cares for, knowledge of things to come through prophecy as He did in the Old as well as the New Testament. Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. now concerning the rapture; Dan 12:1-2 12 And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book. 2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. KJV Daniel says here there are both raised on the day he speaks of some to everlasting life and some to everlasting contempt, in 1 thes. 4 which has been referenced, only those that are asleep in Christ will be raised to be with Him forever/everlasting life So Daniel's and paul's event has to be separate events. also please take note that we which are alive are taken up. this would make this something other than a resurrection because not only the dead are raised but also those that remain alive are taken as well.
  15. 6 pages 104 responses counting this one, and nothing will ever be accomplished as far as proof of what day He was resurrected. scriptures say what day the ladies went to the tomb, does not say He arose that day just that He was gone, could have been He arose the day before. Might as well debate if Adam had a bellybutton or not!
  16. Believe it or not Disciple, I agree with you. I was just pointing out what I believe Paul was talking about. The "Law" that God laid down in the Garden is still in force today. There are clearly roles that God has given in the NT Church. The man is clearly the Head or provider and leader of the woman. There will be many women who disagree with this but it is scripture. Women can preach just as well as any man, but they are not called to lead a congregation in a position as Bishop or Elder. The Holy Spirit clearly laid down the qualifications of an Elder in the Church, and it starts with being a "Husband". No where in any Epistle will you find a wife or woman being taught to rule or lead. Not even in her own household, nevertheless talking about leading God's flock. That is an office that God has charged men with. cool
  17. Zion, my mother taught me as a child, see you err not knowing scriptures, it never said a woman can't teach a child , but that a woman is not to teach man, you opened yourself up for that one, also my teachers taught me while a was a child and that was not in church either. I think each one of these women would agree with scriptures, can you show me where any of these had authority over man in church, or that they did not submit to the head of the House their Husband if they had one. Just one will Do to prove your point, as I have said this is not about God being able to use a woman to get His work done, He used a donkey one time, but that donkey had no authority in Church neither should women. If my wife is the spiritual leader then my house is not lined up with scripture to begin with. I don't think your response was harsh, but a little foolish though, for again you are getting away from the post "Women in Authority" If we want to toss scripture about , what do you do with this seeing that you have brought up some Old testament Godly women, Gen 18:12 12 Therefore Sarah laughed within herself, saying, After I am waxed old shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also? KJV Sarah here call her husband Abraham "my lord" I guess you would be too much of a prideful woman to ever call your husband "my lord" but then I really don't know you that good, so that would be just a guess. I see that you are a senior member and you should know to stay with the thread, so let me express one more time I never said God could not use women, but believe with all my heart that God Said they shouldn't have authority over man. that is the topic, has nothing to do with how many women are mentioned in scripture.
  18. did you not read the whole scripture, Her role is not to teach man : 12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, I am just basing what I say on what you said She lead the teaching, now you are changing your story you didn't say they lead the teaching but she led our teaching!!!!
  19. Paul said he was a prisoner Of Jesus Christ. I guess that bondage would make you sad too. any where we find the Word "servant" in scriptures it could have very well been the word "slave" to be a servant/slave of Jesus Christ would make some sad. So God put things in order, even in Heaven, There is the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, I guess the Son could puff up and say it should be the Son, the father and the Holy ghost or I guess the Holy Ghost could puff up and say it should be the Holy ghost the father and the Son, but then we wouldn't have one God, we would have 3 beings trying to be God. I shutter at just the thought that things would get out of the order that God has placed in heaven or as He would have them be. Thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven, I wonder how it would be if man would raise himself out of the order and put himself over Christ as some women has done and raised themselves over man. 1 Cor 11:1-3 11 Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ. 2 Now I praise you, brethren, that ye remember me in all things, and keep the ordinances, as I delivered them to you. 3 But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God. KJV I praise God that some women have fought off the temptation of pride, and say I am content to be in line with scriptures. the qualifications of a Bishop/pastor/overseer is to be the Husband, and not given to wine. so if one woman is qualified to pastor then all the drunks that want to be pastors should have their shot and drink it also and preach on, as women want their cake and to eat it also. for is not what we do when we say, Lord I will submit to you and your Word but only to the parts that I agree with. then Preach to their flocks to live according to scriptures. I praise God that some men have fought off the temptation of pride, and say I am content to be in line with scriptures. One of the marks of a humble man: they listen to their wives. As Christ loves the church: what if He never listened to any of us, male or female? Think about it. Just because a woman is saying something doesn't automatically mean it's wrong, and just because a man says something doesn't mean it's right. Praise God - He's always right, and He listens to us anyway! Since you addressed this to my post can you show me where I ever said that when a women says something that she is wrong????male or female mentioned in scripture is speaking of salvation, to make that say anything else is adding to scripture and taking that scripture out of content. Hath God said you can eat of any tree???? hath God said that a woman can pastor or have authority over man ???????? Gal 3:26-29 26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. 27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise. KJV
  20. you just contradicted yourself, men are different, and God has assigned different jobs, however a woman is not to teach the man 1 Tim 2:11-15 11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. 12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. 13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. 15 Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety. KJV
  21. I have never said that God Can't use a woman, this is not about women having ministries but rather "women in authority"1 Tim 2:11-15 11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. 12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. 13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. 15 Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety. KJV There is an order in Heaven the Father, the Son, the Holy Ghost, because the Son obeys the Father does not put Him less Jesus said He felt it not robbery to be equal with the Father, Satan has put pride in some women making them think they less, because they are not to hold certain offices in the Church. Satan ask Eve hath God said and he is still up to the same ole tricks. Hath God said in His inspired Holy Word That women shouldn't have Authority over Man? Yes The Apostle and Pastor is authoritative offices in the Church, a teacher, Prophet or evangelist are all under the other two offices but are all as well as equal concerning their offices in the Church. Jesus is head of the Church as man is head of the House. I am no less a person being under Christ, I am glad I have someone over me, looking after me, Loves me, fights my battle, protects me. Only pride would try to raise me above where God has placed me. But I will correct you in one area, the women at the well, which told her towns folks about Jesus was before Mary and the tomb.
  22. Update: I must say that I'm saddened to say that I ran into this teacher at the beginning of this year who impacted my life. I complimented her on her teaching and she responded by saying something to the effect of "Yes, that was an interesting time in my life. I came to realize God's plan for me as a woman and my role in teaching. Now I've been set straight." She was in China last year telling women (new converts) they shouldn't speak and avoid praying in public. <facepalm> I was very sad to hear how much in bondage she'd become. Yet God is good and His mercy endures forever. Thankfully, there is hope and grace found in Jesus Christ. Paul said he was a prisoner Of Jesus Christ. I guess that bondage would make you sad too. any where we find the Word "servant" in scriptures it could have very well been the word "slave" to be a servant/slave of Jesus Christ would make some sad. So God put things in order, even in Heaven, There is the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, I guess the Son could puff up and say it should be the Son, the father and the Holy ghost or I guess the Holy Ghost could puff up and say it should be the Holy ghost the father and the Son, but then we wouldn't have one God, we would have 3 beings trying to be God. I shutter at just the thought that things would get out of the order that God has placed in heaven or as He would have them be. Thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven, I wonder how it would be if man would raise himself out of the order and put himself over Christ as some women has done and raised themselves over man. 1 Cor 11:1-3 11 Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ. 2 Now I praise you, brethren, that ye remember me in all things, and keep the ordinances, as I delivered them to you. 3 But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God.

  23. Not the "Law of Moses" Disciple, the "Law" as in the order that God set after the fall. "The Church of Christ was not mentioned until the New Testament when Christ said upon his glorious sacrifice he would build his Church. Though there are types of the Church of Christ in the Old Testament, there are no specific instruction found for the Church of Christ concerning women behaving in Church, that is found in the Epistles written by Christ's Apostles. The Law here is the subordination that God placed the woman under because of her original act of disobedience. Gen 3:16 To the woman he said, "I will make your pains in childbearing very severe; with painful labor you will give birth to children. Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you." so are you saying that that law still applies; that Women are under the men and if Not then are you saying that the epistles are wrong also when they say that Christ is head of the Church as men are head of the house? I mean can we have our cake and eat it to here, If The epistles are correct that Christ is head of the Church, and man is over the women. then there can be no lady in authority over any man, and be biblically correct, or do we say that part of the epistles is correct and part is wrong, so who determines which parts are right and which parts are wrong?????????
  24. well to help us understand what peter was saying Look at what Jesus said about the great commandment, love God then the second is like unto it, Love one another, and; Matt 22:40 40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. Paul preached in 1 cor. 13 some say the word charity is the wrong translation, that it should read love, but charity is the action verb to love, Be ye doers of the Word, so charity is the absolutely correct translation. but Paul says without the actions of Love we are nothing 1 Peter 4:8 8 And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins. KJV we can say we love all we want unless we show that love by putting it into action, it is like: I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
