    First Thread: ☕🙂👍📖 Should the Bible Be the Text Book?

    The King James version is not without its flaws (Psalms 8:5) In the K.J. version it says a little lower than angels! Correct is God, that word is Elohim not angels, how could our Jesus be lower than that which he himself created?? Any way You can stick with it as you choose, but for me the New...

    What did St Paul think of women?

    Don't be too hard on our brother Paul, His statements about women were that they have their place in the body of Christ just never to be the acting head of the body of Christ in the Church. He also made it very clear to men how to treat our ladies! (1 Tim5:2-4) So Mary don't think you are not...
