So we should not be surprised that the scripture says women should not teach. That does not mean women cannot teach. My wife is a teacher but she NEVER teaches men. Her specialty is teaching women about prayer and how to pray.
That's the key. But we know from Genesis 3 that women will always, because of the fall, want to rule over men, yet men will rule over them despite their desire. God designed men to be the leaders, not women.

They also try to void pain in childbirth for most women.

I dont know why the big emphasis on who teaches the bible, the devils has being doing a good job for years, through both male and female, so teh point is mute, God has little regard for mens ignorance, all he ever wanted was for men to know His son, and all Jesus ever asked was for all to go to Him, and yet with all mens learning they are further from the truth than they have ever being. Jesus is the truth and all who leave Him out will never find the truth because the truth is in Him

Following what the Scriptures say is not leaving Jesus out. It is what He expects. It is HIS WORD.

I have asked you thsi question before, you have yet to answer, so in all your "wisdom: which gods word is Gods word, noting that we have one God one Jesus one Holy Spirit and one truth. As for leaving Him out that is the reason why you all bicker fight and argue over "who is the smartest among us".

Here is your list of gods words. And that is just the english ones.

I am not sure that the implication was that women teaching was leaving Jesus out. I have heard plenty of sermons by men who left Jesus out. A trait of the prosperity doctrine in particular.

Dare I say that these are not God's word. They are man's interpretation of God's words.

You misunderstood, that wasnt to do with women teaching. It was as it says, ALL who leave Jesus out will never find teh truth.

Are you part of the group that is further from the truth? Or are you closer to the truth then everyone else?

So now its down to your own wisdom and personal interpretation... And which is the Original and do you know who wrote them, all the arguments I see, says they are still unsure even to this day, and Jesus will always be the Word of God, no matter how much men deny Him and replace Him with a book, that is Idolatry...

Ok, suppose Jesus is all we have, how do we know what Jesus has said? And you can cut the lie about replacing Him with a book. Nobody is doing that here.

Heb_11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

But si few do, Got big hats to fill.

That has nothing to do with what I asked you.
It has, you read the bible and get an understanding another reads the same and gets another, than you fight and butt heads over who is right. There is one truth

as Jesus put it

Luk 9:46 Then there arose a reasoning among them, which of them should be greatest.

which is all I see,

Eph_4:21 If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus:

and if your refuse to seek Him who is the truth than you will never find the truth,

Just takes you giving Him a chance. So few ever do.

Do you even know what this is talking about?

Eph_4:21 If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus:
You wrote Eph. 4:21 but that is not what you quoted....Not sure what this is...?

and if your refuse to seek Him who is the truth than you will never find the truth,

Thats is what the pharrises would say, always denying the His power.
Do you even know what this is talking about?
Yep and that is what you all do, argue over which is which of you is the greatest, no difference, When none is in Christ none is above another, because those who learn of Him have no SELF to boast of.

2Ti 3:1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2Ti 3:2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
2Ti 3:3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
2Ti 3:4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
2Ti 3:5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
2Ti 3:6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
2Ti 3:7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

Ye well there are many who dont believe you...

Don't they? You mean they are going to lose their salvation as a result? That is terrible. You will have to convince these people that what I say is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth so help them God. I mean, if they can't believe me who are they going to believe? There are not too many people that are infallible. Did you know the Pope is a mate of mine?
