Bible Note: jesusfreak508@aol.com This is just an observation, but from what you wrote it sounds like your Bible is filled with conflicting statements. Your not far off track but I would go back and think through how you got here. Paul did not contradict himself, nor does God. One thing I will agree with is women are not in submission to every man, only their fathers if unmarried and to their husbands if married. As for your eating habits and dress I'm not sure that is submission as much as wisdom on your part. Paul makes this statement in 1 Cor not from his OT background but rather to correct a problem where women in that church were out of submission and were doing things in church that showed this. EdB |
