I have always taken the women be silent statement, that is in His Word, to mean do not interrupt the service. Just my understanding ... Forums are not the service although most of us are in The Body of Christ . That is why Mary was not out of line to proclaim the Resurrection of Christ.
Bore and raised in church literally lived in a couple churches.. i have seen a few women pastors every one is just wacked in some way. I do not have a problem with God's patriarchal design . As i see it too many men have stepped back, got lazy in the churches and let the women take control . The male role is not more or less important then the female role they are just different. An apple is a fruit and orange is a fruit.
Your sarcasm made me smile..
I’m so glad you smiled and understood my intent there 😀 just messing with ya given the subject matter lol
the thing is in the Bible church wasn’t at any certain place but church is wherever Christians gather to discuss and fellowship together and any learning of the scriptures church is the people. Both male And female
in those days they just sent from house to house and gathered everywhere they could d were told that the prophets were the ones to speak and everyone else was to listen and weigh what was said. We know also that thy re are female prophets after the day of pentocost
“But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel; And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: And your sons and
your daughters shall prophesy, And your young men shall see visions, And your old men shall dream dreams:”
Acts 2:16-17 KJV
“How is it then, brethren?
when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation.
Let all things be done unto edifying.
Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge.
Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law.”
1 Corinthians 14:26, 29, 34 KJV
So what of a female prophet ? Should she not speak even though she’s been annointed to prophecy ?
have you also noticed that Paul teaches this and it seems to contradict the other
Forminstance shat if a woman is baptized ?
“For
as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 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. And if ye be Christ's, then are
ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.”
Galatians 3:27-29 KJV
does that apply to both men and women do women also get baptized and receive the spirit of Christ ? Do women have ministrations among the church ? Of course all of us do
there’s a point where we’re meant to stop identifying with our flesh and gender and start identifying with the son of God both male and female
“For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead: and that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again. Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more. Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.”
2 Corinthians 5:14-17
i Myself believe that Paul’s doctrine matured from identifying women this way as if they are still Under the curse of eve
So His logic for the submission of women
“Let
the woman learn in silence with all subjection. But
I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
For Adam was first formed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but
the woman being deceived was in the transgression. Notwithstanding
she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.”
1 Timothy 2:11-15 KJV
that’s the curse of eve it wasn’t until they both transgressed that eve was out in subjection to Adam it wasn’t so beforehand
“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.”
Genesis 3:16
yet later Paul explains when baptized we died to the curses of sin. He still is holding all Women to account for what eve did , yet he’s saying man has been delivered from tbier curse by grace but
women need to bear children and be silent in full subjection and work thier way through good behavior to salvstion.
yet later he says “ there’s no difference between male and female when you get baptized your all the same all of you
Have been clothed with Christ “
it seems to me that Paul’s doctrine grew and matured from the law still showing through to the gospel bekng fully preached
we should look at the spirit and not the flesh gender is a flesh thing the spirit is the believer new creation no
Longer under the curses of adam
And eve for transgression because thier sins have already been remitted in Christ through baptism
so why are women still held under the curse of eve me need to bear children and do all the extra submission to
Man when It was always part of the curse for sin ? But the curse has been taken away yet , she’s still
Identified in eve rather than now identified in Christ ?
