..got any good slavery scriptures? I can find lots of them both in the OT and NT.
The number one rule in interpreting scripture is to look at the people/person/historical setting to whom the letter was written to at the time...which includes the historical narrative of the times they were in so that you can understand what the letter writer is saying.
To take things from the NT social setting and to put it into our time can sometimes lead to weird things...like women now should not be wearing gold or put on dresses or fixing their hair up. Can you see the legalistic confusion that comes in when you don't take what was happening in the historical setting that the scripture was written?
1 Peter 3:3 (KJV)
[SUP]3 [/SUP] Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel;

So, you advocate that women wear no gold nor fix their hair nor put on clothes then? That's what Peter says...
How about this one...
Exodus 32:33 (NASB)
[SUP]33 [/SUP] The LORD said to Moses, "Whoever has sinned against Me, I will blot him out of My book.
This means we are all blotted out of His book because we have all sinned. Do we just believe that scripture?

Yes I thought that well since he says so it must be somewhere in the law, so I asked a Messianic Jew, but it's not in the law that they have to be silent in church. Plus they could prophecy, the daughters of Philip prophecied.
Only thing is Genesis, that the woman will obey her own husband, not the whole muslim world.
He explained that there was a hedge in between, women sat on one side, men on the other and women weren't taught the Torah, only the boys, so they knew nothing and yelled over the fence: HEY WHAT DOES HE MEAN? And I can imagine Paul got as irritated as Benny Hinn got in Holland when they let the children run around during his service and said: SHUT UP!!

1 Ti 2:12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority [SUP]G831[/SUP] over the man, but to be in silence.
Its only used once in the scripture, I have
authenteō
Mat 20:25 Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority upon them but it shall not be so among you. whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister;
2Cr 1:24 Not for that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of your joy: for by faith ye stand.
1Peter 5:3 Neither as being lords over [God's] heritage, but being ensamples to the flock.
See what I mean?

authenteō
- one who with his own hands kills another or himself
- one who acts on his own authority, autocratic
- an absolute master
- to govern, exercise dominion over one
- Other examples (shown below) seem to agree in respects to that definition (as to what is not given any of them either).

The video I posted earlier explains all this out. It was a society historical situation to that time and place when Paul wrote to Timothy.
Usurp authority ([FONT="Galatia Sil" !important]αὐθεντεῖν[/FONT])...it only occurs one time in NT scripture.
It occurs in late ecclesiastical writers. The kindred noun [FONT="Galatia Sil" !important]αὐθέντης[/FONT] one who does a thing with his own hand,
The verb means to do a thing one's self; hence, to exercise authority. The A.V. usurp authority is a mistake. Rend. to have or exercise dominion over.

Sadly enough, many people don't even recognize that our Redeemer has come to bring us out of our carnal thinking. He has given us the mind of Christ! He has given us the Holy Spirit! Now we can begin to get an understanding of spiritual things! These become our life and our dwelling place!
I'm shaking the dust of this carnal contentious thread off of me. YUCK!!
BYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thats ridiculous man.... believe the bible for exactly what it says or you'll never understand anything to do with Christianity. You have or had a spiritual father, mother, brother and sisters before you came to Christ. Should we not hate them? Of course we should or we will keep running back to them.
John 8:44 KJV
Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
Galatians 4:25 KJV
For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children.

Ok Deborah was one of the Judges of Israel... I'll give you that
Any other example? The office of judge I do not believe exists for God's church

Only the KJV uses the word office, & bishop, which is a deliberate mistranslation.
I would suggest that those "authoritarians" quit being KJV Onlyists & read any other good translation out there.
