Do you reeeeeeally believe that you simply dismiss God-Breathed Scripture as merely "relevant to Paul's day"?????? Will you do the same w/ Paul's teachings about faith? So, now the ministry is not an office? Ever read
I Tim. 3:1-7? Silly.
Not real sure what you mean by the "church sitting" Sis. Alvear. I presume that you're evoking the ol' "women sat on one side & men on the other" argument. Even if that were so [& it's virtually non-existent in 1st century church records], I really do not see how this would affect
I Tim. 2:11-15,
I Cor. 14:34, etc. These [& other] Scriptures still stand as a positive witness against the idea of women preachers in the church.
Still waiting on someone [ANYONE] to exegetically [to draw the original meaning out of the text thru grammar/context], instead of eisegesically [to insert meaning into the text thru pre-conceived notions], deal w/
I Tim. 2:11-15,
I Cor. 14:34,
I Tim. 3:1-7, etc.
Well, this is definitely the last time that I can post for a while...so have at it! Blessings.......
