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...

And unfortunately, like in the garden, fallen men have a prideful desire to blame women for the problems in the church, rather than cutting the fat off their own hearts and stepping up to lead and do the work God set out for them. I'm not a feminist and I'm not seeking out a church leadership...

I'll try to behave myself :giggle:. Seriously though...this is a rare premise. Typically we only see threads about all the things the OP is certain God would never want a woman to do. Or ways we are supposedly inferior or can't be used by God. It's rare to see a thread that mentions both good...

So happy for you, sis!!! Tell us more? 😊 How did yall meet? ☕

Yes, they can both be correct. Mary had to wait until the Sabbath ended at sundown before she could do the "work" of the burial preparations. By then it probably would have been unsafe for her to go to the tomb alone (especially considering that it was a secluded location and male guards were...

Welcome to the site! This is a fairly slow-paced format designed for conversations rather than romantic connections, but members do meet and marry sometimes. Jump in on the conversations and see what happens, there are ladies your age here but it will take a little time and patience to get to...

Hi Miss Rose! I have done some crafting. Here are a few tips: -The most marketable items are consumables that make good gifts and cost less than $30 (such as homemade soaps, garlic braids, handmade cards, etc). -Items that cost more than $30 sell best when they are beautiful, functional, and...

Hi searchingforinsight, welcome to the site! Very sorry for what you have been through, but it sounds like The Lord is keeping you in His care. Regarding your dilemma, as Lynx said there's really not enough info to give great advice. But you might want to ask yourself some questions. -Think...
