1 | Should women be allowed to preach? | Galatians | wwv | 50151 | ||
Dear forum, I've been reading this discussion for a bit and their are some fine points. It would seem that men are continually loosing ground as to any kind of authoritative strength through righteousness. Doesn't it say somewhere that the family hierarchy for leadership is as follows: God the father, Jesus Christ the son, man, woman, then beast. If we consider ourselves as a Christian family shouldn't we want to follow those same guidelines? Isn't it true that men and woman are diff. emotionally. Maybe for playing the appropriate roles in Gods will for a family Well, the two reasons I like men better for preachers are 1)they have a natural 'father figure' authority (i.e. I seem to receive Fathers word more securely from a strict fathers voice), and 2) It says in 1 Tim. 2:14 "And it was not Adam who was deceived, but the woman being deceived, fell into transgression." By the way that's not a cultural thing.( I read earlier in regards to that out of date cultural thing, that we don't stone adulterers any more- well don't take this wrong but I wish we had more strict rules on adultery; less abortion, much fewer "dead beat" fathers and mothers, more societal production thru stay together families, etc., etc. I am not saying woman can't preach, I'm saying it's more appropriate scripturally if we want a blameless family and a more pure relationship to the word. Aren’t we trying to stay as pure to the word as possible. God Bless William |

2 | Meat eating after the flood? | Genesis | wwv | 49105 | ||
I Don't know about the stomach and intestines (maybe we already were prepared for such digestion from the beginning) but in "Genesis 7:2 "You shall take with you of every clean animal by sevens, a male and his female; and of the animals that are not clean two, a male and his female;" and in "Genesis 7:3 also of the birds of the sky, by sevens, male and female, to keep offspring alive on the face of all the earth." The key words '7 pairs of every clean (edible) animal and bird This coupled with the fact that there were many more types of animals than us (including the now carnivores- which I believe were the unclean). And they were probably procreating during the flood and they didn't have to eat meat all the time (as a matter of interest they most probably didn't have the "stomach" or have a fully developed taste for such a new food source for a time). You have to remember this a completely new world to all of them, and they're everyday routine (diets and such) was just barely getting off the ground. Please let me know if this sounds right Thankyou God Bless | ||||||
