“I would not give a penny for your love for the truth if it is not accompanied by a hearty hatred of error.” - Charles Spurgeon

I’m happy to hear that. Paul is right, not wrong. If we lose sight of that then we’ve lost it all. We acknowledge his authority. Paul is under the leadership of the Messiah. The Messiah is under the leadership of God. Paul didn’t mislead when he wrote about the roles of males and females in...

Going back to the video, please notice that while women are featured there are men in the background. They aren’t in the position of leadership. They are in the position of being led. They aren’t the strong; they are the weak. They aren’t leading the family structure; they have abrogated the...

Are you finding fault then with Paul? The order in the family structure. Unmarried women were still in the family order of her parents. Paul wasn’t writing about female ministers. Church leadership is modeled on the family structure. The husband‘s role is to be the leader of the family...

Shame on Adam. Adam wasn’t deceived. Shame on Adam. What about Eve? She was deceived. Women tend to be susceptible to being deceived. Men have a tendency to take advantage of that tendency in women and have shamefully exploited them throughout history. Satan knows it. God knows it. The...

Eve was deceived, not Adam. That’s true. But also true is what Paul said about women leading the church. Men and women have God designed roles. Men aren’t superior to women; they aren’t smarter than women. Women aren’t superior to me; they aren’t smarter than men. In Messiah there are neither...

I understand your dilemma. Put your wife before what Paul said about women being in a leadership position in the church over men? All I can tell you is what you already know: Paul didn’t go along with that in his day. We’ve started down the “What would Paul say if … he was alive in the 21st...

Paul was thinking about all of the present (in his day) and future (beyond his day) disciples of Jesus. He wrote his letters for my benefit. Listen to, believe and obey Jesus is my position. His revelation is final, definitive, and authoritative, as far as I’m concerned. I can’t go beyond that.
