Questions
- Many Christians believe that 1 Corinthians 11 and 1 Timothy 2 are speaking about essentially the same thing. They argue that since 1 Corinthians 11 only regulates women teaching men, it is a faulty interpretation to say that ...
- As to 1 Tim 2.12, here's my take: It seems that Paul is definitely restricting the role of women in terms of roles of leadership. 1 Tim 2.12 says that women should not teach or exercise authority over men. The passage almost ...
- I think you are right to look hard at the divorce texts, like Mark 10. The only exception seems to be found in Ezra 10 and Nehemiah 13, where divorce is virtually commanded. These marriages were illegitimate since the wives t...
- My understanding is that prophecy is not identical to preaching, but involves both forthtelling and foretelling. The reason women may prophesy but not teach or preach to men is that the message that the prophet gets from God ...
- In a very general way, I think I can say that one could come to faith in Christ for salvation without believing in the inerrancy of the Word of God, but I am doubtful that one could stay that way for long. The disciples of ou...

- God and Christ commanded us to love man. The Saviour gave us an example in doing it (I John 4:7,21; John 13:34; John 15:12; I John 3:23). It is taught by God and is a fruit of the Spirit (I Thes. 4:9; Gal. 5:22; Col. 1:8). Wi...
- The Genesis text emphasizes the woman leading in the sin, but the consequences for sin are only revealed after Adam ate as well (Gen 3:6-7). Paul lays the blame on both of them (Rom 5:12; 2 Cor 11:3; 1 Tim 2:14)....
- The scriptures indicate the general principle that women ought not to exercise authority over men nor teach them (1 Tim 2:12). This is partially particularized and defined in 1 Tim 3viz., women ought not be elders and deacons...
- I see no problem with a woman president. For one, Deborah was a leader in the Old Testament. For another, the Old Testament mixes national leadership with theocracy, so we might not expect to find relevant examples here for u...
