Bible Question: Do denominations that permit women to speak in church, or even to become pastors, follow the Bible? How shall we interpret this verse, if not literally? |
Bible Answer: Serious Apologies are owed to women from you men. I am appalled at the responses I have just read within this thread, with the exception of few. When you put yourself above anyone, that is called self exaltation, I don't think I need to go further with this word. I think you need to be reminded of the fact, if it were not for a woman carrying you for 9 months, giving birth to you, changing your diapers, wiping your spit, tying your shoes, cooking for you, cleaning for you,WHY? Because they had to? What is the difference between an Islamic women keeping her head covered and her mouth silenced from that of what I have just read of what you all have said in regards to Christian women? It's pretty obvious in the world today that satan has a big disliking for women, look at all the so called religions in the world and name one that is not perverted, which does not put women down? Do you know why women have been given the gift of child bearing? Because they are more blessed. They have been given the gift of unconditional true love through child bearing. Man has no clue of what that really means so he must put himself above the woman. Since I am not a woman it is not my place to correct you but remember my words in humbleness, that in the precious name of Iesous, you will all be corrected by a woman through scripture, because there is a great deal of scripture waiting for your Female teachers to teach you what Love is. In humbleness I pray one day you see clearly and humble yourselves when the time comes. Peace from the Living Water which is Love, casiv |
