Bible Note: This Question is rooted in a previous question I asked about the ability of women to teach in the Body of Christ. A very simple example of what I am curious about would be John 17. When Mary returns to tell the news of the risen Lord, is it a stretch to say that she was the first to deliver the resurrection message of Christ to a Body of Believers? This is not to imply she was usurping authority over man, merely she was teaching, stating fact, that at that moment was unknown to these men in authority within the Body. This question is one of sincerity. I have read several commentaries and articles concerning this very verse. I will humbly admit in some of my findings the language was beyond my understanding. So whoever reply(s) to this post, please be use language as if you were explaining to a child. I want to be able to use what I learn in setting to an un-churched audience. In His Service, Cuddle |
