Acts 1:20 where I believe it is Psalm 109:8 being quoted. There are only 12 "offices" and all twelve were filled by Jesus Christ himself and that would make Paul the 12th. Matthias was chosen by lot but the 12 apostles chosen by Christ are represented in the foundation of New Jerusalem in Revelation 21:14.

Soooo, in the last 10 months, did you all learn us mere women how to behave yet?
(Ever notice these topics are all started by men? And then other men come along to speak up for the women. And, all the time, everyone is talking about it, absolutely no one is bothering to figure out what they should do personally. It's always about what others should or shouldn't do. AND, somehow another just the arguing over it is supposedly the way to convince women how we should act. Because, heaven forbid men take up the bigger question in life. The Lord's word is clear for women. We're supposed to submit. That's kind of vague, but when we study what that means, who we submit to really does become clear. But really? Men? Have you ever gotten to the point where you've totally learned to handle what men are supposed to do? We got "submit." You guys got "love the woman like Jesus loves the Church." Infinitely harder to suss out than "submit." And yet, 24 pages of whether women should preach in church. Love the lack of priorities there.)

What I really laughed over was the argument that we don't have to obey The Law of Paul about head covering because that was just the custom of the place and time. Well, the custom of the place and time I live in is that women can speak, vote, work and preach. So since the head covering was just "custom" the argument did not further the mans argument.
So you make some wonderful point but it seems you might be a little frustrated so i just want to clarify i was not trying to be rude but rather give my interpretation of this scripture.
So your first post stated that for can mean because, that's incorrect the strong dictionary states that for is G1063 and translates to ( A primary particle; properly assigning a reason (used in argument, explanation or intensification; often with other particles): - and, as, because (that), but, even, for indeed, no doubt, seeing, then, therefore, verily, what, why, yet.)
The second reply doesn't make sense all i said was if a woman of faith was to have a child they would not die i said nothing nor does the verse about woman who cant conceive children.
The third reply there are only so many ways to interpret a verse and this verse is clear but ill tell you what i do to properly interpret a verse i define each word of the verse by looking at the original translation in greek or hebrew this way i know exactly what that verse is saying it's not rocket science.
The fourth reply This passage is the the law that you want me to show you it's also a command as it states. This does not mean woman can talk at all in the church that's a lie they can talk and speak all they want they just cant get up on that pole pit and preach.So you just have to understand the context of this scripture to make heads or tails of it.
The final reply states that woman should not be reasonable for what eve did because of the blood of Jesus and your right but it still says "But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence." This doesn't mean all woman have this permanent sin hanging over them no, it's just a command that was given for this transgression. I am always open to learn i am not stubborn or prideful if you feel that i am interpreting something wrong be straight with me as i will be with you for you are my brother or sister in Christ i don't know your gender but anyways i am relatively new to being a true born again Christian because before i was lukewarm and did nothing for god so now that i am studying to show myself approved i welcome all knowledge of the scripture so that i may rightly divide the word of truth.
God Bless you in Jesus name

As she-who-reeks-of-sarcasm, let me try to help you here.
I haven't found any really good emojis for sarcasm, however these are the ones I often use when I'm in the midst of reeking.
and one I haven't seen until now, but definitely a good one
Did it help?
