This is taken about the 1Timothy 2:12 verse Bible Knowledge Commentary 2:11–12. In emphasizing godly conduct for women, Paul stressed, with Peter, “the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight” (1 Peter 3:4). The females in the congregation should...

The Bible Knowledge Commentary 5:12. The church leaders are probably the elders of the church in view of how they were described by Paul. These were men who worked hard to provide pastoral care for the flock, probably in their spare time since in the early church local church leaders often...

Yet this does not equate to any authority position in the church or the status of teaching men in the church. And you are welcome about the chapter breaks, as you admit context is key. For women to labor among men does not equate them having authority. Lets look at the 1 Thessalonians 5:12...

The point of women helping in the spread of the gospel is not at question in your OP. No one ever said women could not be helpers. In fact lets look here! To the Romans passage: Romans 16:1 1 I commend to you our sister Phoebe, who is a servant of the church which is at Cenchrea; 2 that...

I can appreciate your interpretation, yet what you posted proves nothing. Also let us read further into the scriptures given by Paul and see what is being instructed to the church and beloved Timothy. Lets bear in remembrance also there was not chapter breaks and again like you said context is...

2 Timothy 2:12 12 But I do not allow a woman to teach or exercise authority over a man, but to remain quiet. 13 For it was Adam who was first created, and then Eve. 14 And it was not Adam who was deceived, but the woman being deceived, fell into transgression. Genesis 3:16 16 To the woman...

John 10:24-28 24 The Jews then gathered around Him, and were saying to Him, “How long will You keep us in suspense? If You are the Christ, tell us plainly.” 25 Jesus answered them, “I told you, and you do not believe; the works that I do in My Father’s name, these testify of Me...

John 14:9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father? It seems some here do not know Jesus, unfortunate how they bow to the doctrines of men as...

The Kings verse is about 7,000 people in that time. The Romans passage is about the Jews in Paul's day that decided to follow the Messiah, in Paul's time. The Matthew passage is speaking about the Gentiles coming into the faith.

Along with CRFTD I do not agree with the 7,000 statement. Also I do not know of any Christian who holds a high view of scripture that believes the Jews will be saved without accepting Christ. With that said I do not believe God is finished with the nation people of Israel (Romans 11:25) but I...

I went to a sunrise service at the capital of my nation, Washington D.C. It was held outside the Lincoln Memorial and was nice. Afterwards I spent the remainder of the day with my family and brother. I did some reading for school. All in all God was/is/will always be/good!

Oh my dear lost fellow, you have been deceived by a false gospel. Do you understand how condemning upon yourself you are with this statement? Without belief in God you will never be saved. All works of your own righteousness are for naught. You preach against the gospel of grace, that which...

1 Corinthians 12:12-27 12 For even as the body is one and yet has many members, and all the members of the body, though they are many, are one body, so also is Christ 13 For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free, and we were all...

I think you misunderstand what it is I am saying. The body of Christ is united. We are universal (the definition of catholic). Some may not be able to see past the lines of denominations, but not all are like that. Truly in the eyes of God there is only one church, the universal church, the...

I believe in the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus the Christ. I believe in the Holy Trinity. I believe Jesus ascended to the right hand of the Father and will come again. I am a Christian, a follower of the Way, a believer in Yeshewa my Messiah. I believe in the unity of the Universal...

A little reading on being born again in an unrelated fashion but I thought it interesting and possibly edifying to this discussion. John 3:3-7 3 Jesus answered and said to him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.” 4 Nicodemus...

This is how I understand it also.

I would say all things work together for the good of those who love God, who are called according to His purpose. In reference to Satan, I he is still under the authority of God, being God is sovereign over all things. God uses Satan for His own purposes (cf. Job 1:6-12 also 1Corinthians 5:5)...

Nice!

Let me say this. I just returned from Israel. There I observed the Sabbath as well as eating Kosher. I came home and I will not observe the Sabbath and I already ate pork. Like Paul teaches, in Israel I observed what it is they observe in order to show kindness as well as to not offend my...
