    Question about women in the church.

    It looks like you’re ignoring the context. It is a statement of certain consequence resulting from the woman’s choice, just as verses 17-19 show the certain consequences of the man’s choice. The woman will desire her husband’s affection but he will rule her harshly. Your attitude is a perfect...

    Hogwash and codswollop.

    Question about women in the church.

    Gen 2:18 helper: ezer kenegdo, also used of God Himself. Nope, no equivocation whatsoever. It amazes me that you are so blinded by your commitment to sexism that you dismiss the evidence that refutes it.

    The word of God is not a secret code that needs unlocked.

    I certainly don’t need a mistranslation to know it was Jesus.

    Yes… later. You’re employing a fallacy of anachronism.

    The word of God is not a secret code that needs unlocked.

    Your argument is based on a fallacy. You need to establish first that the KJV is a perfect translation of perfect manuscripts before using it as the standard against which other translations are measured.

    The word of God is not a secret code that needs unlocked.

    After all, it makes perfect sense that a pagan king would acknowledge a foreign god. No. The KJV might be theologically accurate here but it’s contextually incorrect. It is extremely unlikely that the original Hebrew has ‘the son of God’.

    Question about women in the church.

    Your words, exactly. Stop assuming. Go with what Jesus actually said and stop inventing doctrine from His actions. Jesus didn’t say that women should not be disciples. Jesus didn’t say women could not lead, or preach, or teach men. Jesus didn’t say women shouldn’t lead local fellowships of...

    The word of God is not a secret code that needs unlocked.

    The problem with the English word “begotten” is that it is not a correct translation for “monogenes”. “Species-unique”, though awkward, fits better. “One-of-a-kind” is a colloquial rendition.

    Question about women in the church.

    Excommunication is appropriate in very limited circumstances. Disagreement over the involvement of females in church is not among them.

    Question about women in the church.

    I have no such obligation, and will happily ignore your crowing.

    Question about women in the church.

    Jesus taught them, but said nowhere that the absence of female apostles means anything at all. It is foolish to make doctrine from narrative. Perhaps you didn’t know that the Hebrew words translated ‘helper’ are used elsewhere for God Himself. Is God merely a helper, a subordinate underling...

    Question about women in the church.

    Paul’s words to Timothy allude to a local cultural issue. His reference to Genesis fits this context perfectly and actually affirm women rather than restricting them, as so many misogynistic male Christians think.

    The word of God is not a secret code that needs unlocked.

    The KJV was created with several manuscripts in hand, so you are refuting your own position.

    The word of God is not a secret code that needs unlocked.

    I’ll wait for the long answer; the short answer is ridiculous.

    The word of God is not a secret code that needs unlocked.

    Repeating the same claim does not validate it. Your quote from Waite is circular reasoning.

    The word of God is not a secret code that needs unlocked.

    According to what standard? Against what do you measure the TR to draw this conclusion?? Of course, you don't have an answer, because there isn't an answer. You're just making up hogwash and framing it in lofty words.

    We don’t avoid sin by the power of the law, but by the inner conviction of the Spirit. Perhaps you don’t have the Spirit; that would explain perfectly why you don’t understand what you’re being told. People with the Holy Spirit within them don’t need the external law to constrain them.
