What do you think about gender equality in Christianity?

[Truther]

Are you familiar with this word and where it's used in Scripture?

H6951 - qāhēl - Strong's Hebrew Lexicon (KJV)

No, who made up that modern redefinition?

Ha ha, my point is that the whole concept of church you are holding to, is the real "new agey" material.

I'm asking questions in hopes that you will consider the actual context of the passages in question.

Your verses are written to a sect of Judaism and they are concerning Synagogue, where Torah is taught.

Watch from 9:10-11:55

I'll look for the Tyndale Bible that correctly translates Qahal to Ekklesia in Matthew 16:18!

Oh here it is @Truther

18 And I saye also vnto the yt thou arte Peter: and apon this rocke I wyll bylde my congregacion. And the gates of hell shall not prevayle ageynst it.

Equality goes against the word of God. Even in your question, you are presenting inequality as a given.

That your post lacks Scriptural support is seen in the fact that no Scripture was provided that is aligned with the maligning the man. I've long pointed out that Scripture is about Covenant relationships not Contractual relationships. Today's feminists want to put conditions on their burden to honor men, e.g., if he deserves respect. This is not the message in Ephesians 5.

Contradicts this

Men and women were made to complement

which is what my whole post was about. Each member of the family doing what they do best and what is best for the family. Making authority am arbitrary law regardless of context and skill sets is placing an unnecessary burden on families

Talk about man-hating. In the Spirit of Equality, do women possess in EQUAL MEASURE acting like scoundrels, dictators, selfish, egoistical, self righteous, pompous authoritarian, despots?

In the 19th and 20yh century (the days gone by I was referring to) it was such men who fought against women voting... Who supported slavery... And which inspired women to protest for the right to vote. That's equality. They shouldn't have had to fight for it.

Where do you find in Scripture the choice to not submit?

Where do you find in scripture that submission is something that needs to be enforced by power and strength? Women will quite willingly submit if the husband treated them well.
By the way. Man hater? Seriously? You have no clue.

You can’t answer a question with a question.

Your opinion. Not Scripture.

The Myth of saying that Jesus Christ died for all men without exception !
It's better than without it!

When Jesus chose Mary of Magdalene as witness for His resurrection, it remains the same, in the past, present and future, it is what it is. When the anonymous writers of canonized gospel wrote the event of Jesus resurrection consistently, it remains the same, nothing to be added and revised, it is what it is.

The only thing that changed is human acceptance for Mary of Magdalene blessing role.

From Mary of Magdalene we can learn, gender equality is not related with theologian concept. Gender equality is not problem of God. Gender equality is purely problem of human.

Unfortunately this thing about gender equality in the church has spawned ideas that have no basis in scripture.

In my country, an Anglican woman fought the good fight to have women ordained. After 10 years of fighting, she won and women started wearing the dog collar.

Guess what happened next. The AOG started to ordain a male pastor AND his wife. Today it is rare to find any AOG church that is not run by a pastor AND his wife.

Of course everything that goes against scripture always produces a slippery slope. You start at a minimal point and before you know it, the floodgates open and we have every Tom, Dick and Jane pronounced as leaders/pastors.

I guess it was inevitable as you already have a church that ignores scripture so where does it all end.

Nowhere in the New Testament does it say that the pastor is in charge. The New Testament Church leadership was the province of the Apostles, the Prophets and the Elders. NOT ONCE is a pastor mentioned as a leader of the church. When you ignore this most basic and obvious instruction in scripture, you open yourself to all sorts of man made doctrines and practices. And I am not talking about licorice allsorts.

The current church is but a shadow of the New Testament Church which changed the world and will continue to be so unless it is prepared to ditch man made doctrines and replace them with what the scripture teaches.

Having said that, I acknowledge those who have given up all to go into all the world and make disciples and are doing a wonderful job.

Complementarianism vs. Egalitarianism...?

You just debunked the commands of Paul with new age rhetoric.

The Corinthians were primarily a gentile congregation BTW.

Yeah, and they celebrated Christmas and Easter too right...yeah...

Your point?

You're not following huh...

Not really.

You are debunking Paul's command to the Corinthian church.

Just trying to see how you are doing it in detail.

You've not read my posts and/or watched the media, so you can't be that concerned about the details...

 

[Tone]

See, if I'm debunking anything, it's how people use Paul's writings to control something unrelated to the subject matter...and they do this...well...for control.

It's like enforcing Victorian table etiquette on some poor tribe that doesn't even have tables...

You gotta bring them to the table (Torah) first.

I don't watch media teaching.

Too much extra Biblical additives.
