Bible Question: What are adequate boundaries for a woman to take among male workers? Is it good for a woman to be among other women? |
Bible Answer: Greetings Reighnskye, YOu have asked a good question and you are right it is especially applicable in today's times. It is not wrong for a woman to work among men. Boundaries for each woman should be set according to the woman and the men she works with. Some men the woman could clown around with and they would know that it all in fun. There are some men that if you clowned around with them there would be sexual conutations assumed. In all cases though the woman should carry herself as a Christ-like person. She should uphold the standards that the Bible sets for us. She should also be sure that she does not cause anyone to stumble. (Mal 2:8; 1Cor 10:32) Hope this helps. prayon |
