If anyone can quote Timothy, I'm mighty impressed. He never wrote anything that ended up in the Bible.
But if you're going to exempt Paul as a source, I have problems with that. And if you assume God's word is only for a certain era, I've got problems with that. Some things really were for a certain era, but we know that because God, in his word, changed it.

Some people feel Timothy co authored Colossians.

If I told hubby I was going to preach, he'd get excited, and ask to whom. If I told him men and we're studying the Book of Romans... well, let's just say that would never happen.
If the choice is let a wife do what she wants or divorce her? Something is strange about that marriage. Very strange. He couldn't afford me doing what I want -- literally. lol

I shouldn't have thought there would be any benefit to standing
in front of bricks and mortar, especially in the UK, it rains a lot. Lol
I have been to "church buildings" where the sum of the congregation has
amounted to 7 and one of them was the pastor - have I spelt that right.
On the other hand I have been to house groups where the number present
has been over 20.
What is the difference may I ask?
Are church buildings holy and homes not?
Is God only present in a church building?
Do pastors only go to church buildings, but not visit homes to preach?
Do only men go to church buildings, while the woman stay at home?
Is God so impotent that he will only give a word of knowledge to someone
in a church building, but is unable to do so in a house or vice versa?
Why is it sinful for a woman to speak in the large setting of a church building
but not at home? If she is saying something God has revealed to her, is God
bothered whether she says it in a church building with 7 people present or in a house
with 20 people.
Why does the size of the building matter to you?
Do you feel in some way that larger church buildings are anointed but homes
cannot be?
Can you not see how strange your belief is that women can speak in their own
house if they have a word of knowledge to share, but not in another building.
What is so special about the typical church building that you have come to
this conclusion.
Incidentally the majority of the work of Jesus was done in the open air so
that completely blows the definition of "church" out of the water.
Matthew 18:20 NKJV
[20] For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the
midst of them."

I gave you the benefit of the doubt, KJV1611 and I listened to Billy Graham intently, waiting to hear him say something against the truth. But what I heard him say is that whomever God calls is saved.
That is absolutely the truth! No man comes to God UNLESS He calls him. And when He does call, no one can resist. I know God called me before I finally heard Him clearly. I faintly heard Him my whole life! I just didn't know who He was.
Billy Graham said that God calls us in whatever place we are at. No matter what religion we believe. That's not false.
I don't know what you're hearing, KJV1611 but I hear Billy Graham telling my true testimony. I was involved in so many false religions and cults, so chained in fear and hopelessness and depression, I thought God despised me as I was. it is nothing but a miracle that I heard the loving voice of God in my spirit. It HAD to be God's love and mercy that I heard Him call me to Himself.
KJV1611, God calls us to Him from wherever we are. How did you hear Billy Graham say something contrary to that?

I am convinced that what we have here, are a couple of cultists who are here to cause trouble and to disagree with those of us who accept the Christian view of the gospel
Neither of these two 'men' have anything to contribute other than to argue and declare things not in scripture but that they state is in scripture by stringing verses as 'proof' texts of what they put forth
This, is the post that got me riled up yesterday

KJV1611 response to me:
Without any reason for it, without any call for it, KJV1611 goes from shorts to naked body parts
I was extremely offended and not at all expecting someone with a gutter mind to respond to my innocent post as did Mr 1611
Here we have basically been joking and even having some fun; but this person AND chuck are not having fun and that is what you should take into consideration
These two are utterly serious ...didn't you read the post where chuck took literature away from his wife and cancelled a Bible study? Don't you know spiritual abuse in action when you see it?
Neither of these 2 men are preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ
I cannot say how much I wish this thread would either be shut down or everyone still in here, would leave off posting and let these two cultists do their thing elsewhere

By the way KJV, I'm sorry if we are giving you a hard time. Its not
easy to be on the receiving end of me verses them.
Its not a bad thing though to hear opposing views and to be put in
the position of hearing new ideas and concepts which we might not have
considered before. In many ways it is part of the learning and growing curve.
I wonder if we will remember all these debates in eternity. Lol
