Be United, Joyful, and in Prayer
2 I implore Euodia and I implore Syntyche to be of the same mind in the Lord. 3 And[a] I urge you also, true companion, help these women who labored with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and the rest of my fellow workers, whose names are in the Book of Life.
4 Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice!
there you go WOMEN who labored as missionaries with Paul. Biblical basis. I'm firmly rooted in the Bible, there are things I don't understand but women have more roles to play in the world then just being barefooted and pregnant at home. the BIBLE tells us this, who is MAN to tell us differently?
