Subject: Biblical - women preachers/teachers??? |
Bible Note: Dear gods servant: Wouldn't "God's servant" be better? ....... Are you saying that God chooses "the best tool for the job"? Never in Holy Writ have I come across anything suggestive of God's calling human beings tools nor any hint that women have replaced men as "tools" of choice for preaching and teaching. Where did you get your ideas about this issue? If you got them from Scripture, please prove it; and if from your stockpile of personal opinion, please say so. ....... I couldn't help seeing humor in your term, "Visa versa," and wondered whether it was a reference to a poetic credit card. :-) --Hank |
