Bible Note: Greetings Toeknee - I agree we are all equal in value and equal in accountablity before God, but not equal in authority. For ALL have sinned; for God so loved the world (everyone); Christ died for ALL . . . There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. Gal 3:28. We are "one in Christ." We are all of equal value, but we are all different. We are part of "one Body;" we are complementary to one another. The man is the head of his wife (Eph 5:23)doesn't mean that they are not of equal value, but rather the man has authority over the woman. 1 Tim 2:13-14 (and yes, sometimes this is a really hard pill to swallow! I think it goes with Gen 3:16 "your desire will be for your husband, And he will rule over you." ) My 2 cents. mommapbs |
