"our women fight like men and our men fight like women" XerxesGird up your loins and be courageous. Don’t let a woman be braver than you!
The verb--may grow--is Aorist, Passive, Subjunctive--Ephesians 4:13-16 KJV
13) Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:
14) That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;
15) But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:
16) From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.

God accidentally started feminism! Lol.“Watch! Stand fast in the faith! Be men! Be strong!” (1 Corinthians 16:13)
But this is what feminism has done these last days…
“…they shall become as women. ” (Jeremiah 50:37)
God has always been saying the same thing.the flesh vs the spirit. the NT supersedes the old and makes it obsolete for believers. Christ fulfilled it for us and we are no longer under the law.
hope this helps !!!
Hmm, I wonder how far you are taking this idea that we "need" prophets to interpret scripture for us and without prophets the church loses its way?Yeah, it is a marvel that “scripture only“ turned immediately bad. But then, scripture only should have been subject to the prophets’ understanding and if you burn and imprison and kill them, you’re at a bit of a loss…
Anytime mate. I have more...Thats an awesome story thanks for sharing.
Wow…I never noted that verse. I had only found the one weaning verse!Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts.

Women were the first to see Jesus after His resurrection. I think women have an easier grasp with the beginning of the truth. But a harder to time with how that plays out.Sometimes God does something with a woman men do not expect or approve of.
Magdalene stood under the cross too.
We are in dilapidated condition. I can’t convince you of that, I won’t even try. But I see more of the mistakes of Israel, repeated, than I do some magnificent edifice. But no one can help what they see.Hmm, I wonder how far you are taking this idea that we "need" prophets to interpret scripture for us and without prophets the church loses its way?
Isa 28:9
Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts.
1Jo 2:20-28
But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things.
I have not written unto you because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth.
Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.
Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: (but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also.
Let that therefore abide in you, which ye have heard from the beginning. If that which ye have heard from the beginning shall remain in you, ye also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father.
And this is the promise that he hath promised us, even eternal life.
These things have I written unto you concerning them that seduce you.
But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.
And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming.
Growing up means no longer needing to rely on spiritual “parents”, trusting in man, but having learned to rely on the Lord and be taught by Him….He is the Shepherd of our souls and His sheep know His voice. Doesn't necessarily mean He will never teach us any more through man, but when we are abiding in Him we recognize His voice, when what is being taught is of Him and when it is not. HE is not a man that He should lie......and David cried out that all men are liars.......I think that means we can expect no man is going to be right and speak truth all the time, so we must learn - by relying on the Spirit - to eat the meat and spit out the bones of what anyone says. It's like, as we grow from childhood into adulthood, learning to think for ourselves, we begin to realize that our parents are only human after all and subject to having faults and being wrong at times.
Stupendous…Women were the first to see Jesus after His resurrection. I think women have an easier grasp with the beginning of the truth. But a harder to time with how that plays out.
Men, on the other hand I see as having a REAL hard time with how the truth is presented. But once they get on board, they are able to see it through. I think it has to do with logic. Women think about people. Men think about things.
The division of labour in a free society proves that point.
more humanism and human philosophy. Paul talks about it in Colossians 2:8. You reject the God ordained roles of men and women God has placed in the 2 Divine institutions that are a reflection of Him- Marriage and the Church. There are even roles within the Tr-Unity of God that involve humility and submission. If you cannot understand Gods nature and character then you cannot understand mans and how God created man in His own image and likeness. All heresy and false teaching starts with a wrong belief about God.Women were the first to see Jesus after His resurrection. I think women have an easier grasp with the beginning of the truth.
