IN RESPONSE TO THE FEMINISTS AND THE FEMINIZED MALES - PART TWO "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." (Gen 3:16 RV) the underlined...

You wrote: "Paul said some questionable things in my opinion..." and I'm sure the regenerate children of God are eager to place your opinion above that of the Holy Spirit inspired Paul. Paul's advice at the earlier part of the chapter - "Yet I would that all men were even as I myself...

Your approach had serious problems when you try to equate the use of a word describing human to human relationships to that of God to human relationships. You say the Hebrew for "help" is used of God also, which indeed it does. But, then you go on to write: "they indicate full equality and...

Cameron, I do believe God has chosen to place many women in office today. Reading Isaiah chapter 3 with the description of God's judgment upon Israel, I see women in the rule as part of the evidence that the USA and church institutions are under judgment also. So much there is similar to how...

The church can choose to obey God, or follow the dictates of the modern humanists! "And Jehovah God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a help meet for him." (Gen 2:18, ASV) "For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man: for neither was the man...

God chose Deborah, but nowhere are we told to choose a woman as elder, leader, official, Pastor, Deacon, etc. We are to mind our own business as to what or who God chooses and we are to follow what he has commanded us. "The secret things belong unto Jehovah our God; but the things that are...

If you read his tract you can see what he thought about Deborah, and how that does not include political rule or as a basis for selecting a leader. His writing brings out many things I'd never heard or seen pointed out before. The tract is archived online so I can't do a copy/paste but you can...

Adam Clarke the Methodist commenting on the parallel passage in Matt. 9:17 - "Verse 17. New wine into old bottles] It is still the custom, in the eastern countries, to make their bottles of goat skins: if these happened to be old, and new wine were put into them, the violence of the...

Did you ever read where Dahmer ever expressed conflict between his actions and God's law? Was Dahmer ever concerned about God, or was he thinking merely of society and culture? "Now I rejoice, not because you were grieved, but because your grief led to repentance; for you felt a godly grief...

We can stay with the KJV and it comes out the same, if you take the time to study how the KJV uses the singular "sin" and the plural "sins". Sin in the singular has a general and habitual meaning coming from the sin nature in man and "sins" are particular sins. Then also you must keep track of...

"To promote a woman to bear rule, superiority, dominion, or empire above any realm, nation, or city, is repugnant to nature; contumely to God, a thing most contrarious to his revealed will and approved ordinance; and finally, it is the subversion of good order, of all equity and justice. In...

You do NOT arrive at truth by introducing man-made contradictions into God's word! "Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God." (1John 3:9, KJV) "If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth...

To state a fundamental and basic rule of interpretation: "Simplicity and Naturalness - Presumably the meaning of almost any passage was simple to the writer; otherwise, he would have attempted to simplify it by explanation or further development. The correct interpretation will therefore be a...

I've been spending too much time working on replies and posts so I am dropping out. It will be more profitable for me to begin using the NRSVue along with the Fifth Edition of The New Oxford Annotated Bible and spend some time on that. I find that so often in the so-called "liberal" study...

Concerning conservative, liberal or scholarly input to a translation, a book by the RSV translators gets directly to the point speaking on the OT, but the principle applies to the NT as well: "A recent speaker has told of a project to issue 'a theologically conservative translation of the...

Most web sites that claim to give a clear review of Bible translations tend to be fundamentalist/evangelical rather than balanced reviews. The best overview of translations I've found comes from the UK: https://www.biblesociety.org.uk/explore-the-bible/which-is-the-best-bible-translation/ An...
