1 | Women Preachers? Yes or No? | 1 Cor 1:1 | glory2godnow | 178374 | ||
Jeff The question is context. How right you are. Especially within the Holy Spirits leading. Our Teacher. Paul warns that the carnal mind is emnity with God. What do you suppose carnal is? May I suggest reasonings and logical thought. The wonderful thing about having the Teacher, Comforter within is that you don't have to be a scholar! Praise the Lord He sent the greater One to dwell within!! That is the salvation the phophets longed for! gune goo-nay Probably from the base of G1096; a woman; specifically a wife: wife, woman. what is interesting about that passage is it is singular not plural. Fits with context of a wife. I think the Lord would rather have one Katherine Kuhlman than a thousand scholars. If God can not use men to reach out to the lost and demonstrate His love, power, healing and deliverence He will use whoever is willing. I personally am all for men doing it. In fact I think the church has been demasculinized. Paul said, I do not come in excellency of speech but in demonstration and power of the Holy Ghost. (paraphrased) A powerless gospel is not the gospel. The church was never meant to be run by a bunch of women and old women. Partially because women have the tendency to be busybodies (Titus)and because they are more prone to deception. Jeff you know as well as I do that satan knows scripture. He misquoted it to Eve and taunted Jesus with scripture. It is therefore only our reliance on the One who is smarter than the devil and all of his twistings of scripture, that will keep us safe and guide us into all truth. In that vein may His precious Holy Spirit lead you Jeff, not into mans wisdom but God's. |

Dear Glory, You wrote, "What do you suppose carnal is? May I suggest reasonings and logical thought. The wonderful thing about having the Teacher, Comforter within is that you don't have to be a scholar!" So you are saying that God does not encourage thought, nor does He condone logic? In Him, Doc |

Doc I didn't say it. Paul did. Rom 8:6 Now the mind of the flesh (which is sense and reason without the Holy Spirit) is death (death that comprises all the miseries arising from sin, both here and hereafter). But the mind of the (Holy) Spirit is life and (soul) peace (both now and forever). Rom 8:7 (That is) because the mind of the flesh (with its carnal thoughts and purposes) is hostile to God, for it does not submit itself to God's Law; indeed it cannot. Rom 8:8 So then those who are living the life of the flesh (catering to the appetites and impulses of their carnal nature) cannot please or satisfy God, or be acceptable to Him. Rom 8:9 But you are not living the life of the flesh, you are living the life of the Spirit, if the Holy Spirit of God really dwells within you (directs and controls you). But if anyone does not possess the Holy Spirit of Christ, he is none of His (he does not belong to Christ, is not truly a child of God). |

Dear Glory, So you construe this form of "sense and reason" to be human cognitive function? I believe in a former post you called it "reasoning and logical thought." So do you believe that all human "reasoning and logical thought" is in error? In Him, Doc |
