Hi JMH, I don't mind answering this if you are sure you are ready for a mature conversation. But that means both sides have to listen to each other and try to understand the others' point of view. It would mean no name-calling or petty insults, so If you disagree you need to communicate that...

Hey @Roughsoul1991 , any updates? Have you given your sermon yet? :)

Yeah.... it's interesting how this topic is often posted by a male who is young in the faith. They are happy to make a big huge deal about how their male-ness makes them more qualified than those "prideful daughters of Eve". I don't argue with them on that point because I respect their...

Thank you, I shall take that as a compliment :cool:. I truly do wish you the best and I think your heart is mostly in the right place. But you need to be careful with your "informing". You do not seem to have a gift for it. :censored: And yes I am leaving the thread, we're obviously not going...

On that point, I agree with you..... it doesn't seem like you are understanding what I am trying to tell you. Please do spend more time growing in Christ before you do too much "informing", though! ;)

If you are talking to me then yes I did post that scripture :giggle:. But why is it "teaching" when I do it, and "informing" when you do it? :unsure:

Why haven't you noticed by now that I haven't even argued against that point? :unsure:

How on Earth are you getting that conclusion from reading that passage? :unsure: Truly, and I am saying this in love and concern, you really do need to learn more before you go around trying to teach or correct others. Teachers will receive a greater judgement :censored:.

Hi JMH, for me personally, this quote you made on page one is what made me think that you feel women are inferior to men: I didn't pick a point at the time because I THINK you were trying to say that men and women are "unequal" in the sense that we generally have different gifts and roles to...

You are the one asking me to explain, so why don't you tell me what I said that gave you that impression? :unsure:

Why do you think that I think that? Please explain.

You're welcome....if you do a search on the words "prophesy" and prophecy" in the Bible and read them in context I think it will be more clear..... worked for me anyway :p. It does sound like you've had the Holy Spirit at work in your life. For some reason we've come to expect charismata to...

It sounds like you are on the right track Andrew, keep praying and seeking God! If He is leading you (even if it's with correction), then that means He loves you and is working on your heart. Learn to trust and follow Him, it's the only real life there is! :cool:

Ah yes, 1 Timothy chapter 3...... funny, we don't hear a lot about that passage but it's very important: 4An overseer must manage his own household well and keep his children under control, with complete dignity. 5For if someone does not know how to manage his own household, how can he care chu...

I'm not sure if i agree with his point or not, he hasn't even clarified what his point is. But I do agree that Eve was deceived and transgressed first, whereas Adam willfully sinned (maybe to please her?). I wonder what would have happened if, instead of following her in sin, he had manned up...

Sure, that's a great idea! They could probably come up with a great first date idea, and you will win bonus points with them for asking 😉😎 But do use the first few dates to listen and try to figure out on your own what she would like, it's a skill that will serve you well for the relationship...

Hi ChurchDrummer, welcome to the site! Ladies generally like it when you choose dates that demonstrate you know them as a person and have paid attention to what they are drawn to. If she has mentioned she likes animals then she might enjoy a trip to a petting zoo, animal sactuary, or a farm...

You're welcome! I didn't know all that about propheteia and what it actually meant until a few years ago when I was studying for a youth group lesson. Before that I thought prophecy only pertained to foretelling future events, but after some study and cross-referencing I realized that is not at...

I know she was :rolleyes:. Her husband also blamed her when he made the decision to follow her in transgression. Which is what some men in the church are doing today, blaming issues on "prideful women" rather than men shirking their spiritual responsibilities. If you feel that male-ness alone is...

Hi Hornetguy, "forth telling" is more like "speaking forth" rather than "foretelling". A prophetic word CAN be a foretelling of a future event but it's definitely not limited to that. Propheteia (the Greek root word prophesy comes from) basically means "speaking forth (by) the will of God". We...
