NASB | 1 Timothy 2:12 But I do not allow a woman to teach or exercise authority over a man, but to remain quiet. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Timothy 2:12 I do not allow a woman to teach or exercise authority over a man, but to remain quiet [in the congregation]. |
Bible Question: Is 1 Tim 2:12 applicable to the present day body of Christ. If this verse is to be taken literally why are there women teacher's such as Joyce Meyers/Marilyn Hickey/Gloria Copeland and others? Is what they are doing biblical? |
Bible Answer: You decide. Paul also states elsewhere that there is no Greek or Jew, male or female in Christ. But remember that your decision is yours and does not bind others. Also remember that it is mans nature to have others accepts his beliefs concerning matters such as this. Judges Chapter 4 1Ti 2:11-15 See my other responses dated today 7/13/03 on this matter.
