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: Whew! I guess this HAS been discussed before. I guess we should just pray that God would give us understanding and do our best to follow the instructions He has given thru His word. I pray that we would all receive understanding. In Jesus love, Sgtmac |
