Bible Note: Hi, Rowdy; I think we're both trying to make our points - more accurately, I think we're both trying to explain the points we see made in Scripture. No malice assumed or intended. You said: "the scriptures I've seen so far haven't given any support to the idea that women are allowed equal standing in the church with men." To which I reply: "all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus" (Galations 3:27-28) You said: "Still anxiously waiting for anyone else to respond." To which I reply: "Amen, brother!" Peace and grace, Steve aka Indiana Jones who, sadly, now has to go to work.... |
