When my husband and I were both working I went to our government building and it was PACKED with foreign MEN applying for welfare. That was when I saw that we were being used as slave labor to support the world. You hear this Pope telling everyone they must accept migrants - but nobody wants...

I tell my husband that all the time:)

So many forces are pushing women to have careers - I read that's why the birth rate has dropped substantially among whites (this is NOT a racist remark - this is what I read) but the birth rate among blacks and Hispanics has continued. I don't know why it affected whites disproportionately...

It's sad that's changed. I long for those days again.

That's sound wisdom. It is the Spirit that draws one to a good teacher who teaches truth. Maybe this is the best answer.

I am not a fan of female preachers either - and I'm unsure why it bothers me too. I thought it may have been from attending the strict Presbyterian church, but I don't know. None of the women pastors draw me - someone like Charles Stanley does. I can't listen to Joyce Myer, or Paula White...

You have a thorough grasp and I agree we have to take the whole counsel of Scripture - there is the verse that another had quoted about there not being male nor female, but I don't know if Paul is talking only about married women in Timothy - he could be, but then again he may not be. There are...

You have a point - I never thought of that verse. I see why so many churches are disparate in their beliefs - there seem to be competing Scriptures and various interpretations.

I I wonder why so many are deceived about Israel. Many pastors still tell us to support Israel - but why don't many see that isn't the true Israel?

There are many unanswered questions about that attack as well, and things are being hidden from the public. A CIA agent came out and said that every single attack was a false flag. Our own government is massacring people.

I tend to think along these lines as well. I was influenced by the strict Presbyterian church, but it is in the bible - and it can't be explained away. Unless like Scott said there is a deeper spiritual meaning behind it - that I haven't yet been given understanding about. Because of the...

I'm not really sure what you mean?

That's very thorough. I was confused - I thought it was Paul who told women not to teach. It's interesting that so many churches interpret this differently. We were in two separate churches that didn't allow women to teach. The Baptist church has women teach other women. The subject has...

You're right - he did say not to usurp authority over a man. But Paul said. But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.

That's a good point. I never thought about missionaries. But what about 1 Tim. 2:12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. It is clear what Paul said. How can anyone take it any differently? I'm a woman and not trying to put down my...

We've been in two distinctly bad churches: One was a strict Presbyterian church that was legalistic and there was much "respecter of persons" in that church - in accordance to who you were. We were in another independent Bible church where the leadership thought they were little gods and hurt...

I saw a relative by marriage come back from Iraq with problems, so I'm against all these wars. Trump said that he would stop them but it was a lie - he has continued them. They come back damaged and then taxpayers have to pay to support them the remainder of their lives. I know 3 young men on...

It makes sense since they're very big on "bloodlines." I thought that about the Nephilim - that they probably weren't true giants in the sense of being 50 feet - I had thought the same, that they were just unusually large - like the Nordics were supposed to be. I looked up the verse: Numbers...

We went to a strict Presbyterian church one time and I adopted at least some of their values: they were very strictly against women teachers in accordance with Paul's admonition that he "does not allow a woman to teach." Yet we see more and more women teachers. What is your take on this?

It is a miracle that any of them make it - and I don't think that many make it to adulthood without being scarred by this culture/ world. I remember it was like trying to hold back the Niagara. I would not want to raise children in today's sick culture. I thought about making my own Christian...
