Quotes from a recent news article - "For example, nearly half of evangelicals agreed that God 'learns and adapts' to different circumstances, in stark contrast to the biblical doctrine of unchanging nature, or immutability; 65 percent of evangelicals agreed that everyone is 'born innocent in...

Yes, and all opposition to gay marriage is homophobia. LOL

The wise man Solomon will make the feminists rage! LOL "Here is what I discovered: A bad woman is worse than death. She is a trap, reaching out with body and soul to catch you. But if you obey God, you can escape. If you don't obey, you are done for. With all my wisdom I have tried to find out...

What is the historic view of the church about the role of women in the assembly of God? The early and respected St. John Chrysostom (347-407 AD) in Homily 9 on First Timothy 2:11-15 wrote: "Great modesty and great propriety does the blessed Paul require of women, and that not only with...

This thread was on more than just 1 Cor. 14:34-36, it was about John Knox's entire argument against the rule by women discussing Scripture through the entire Bible. Since you mentioned these 3 verses I'll comment on them. At least you are actually discussing Scripture instead of trying to...

IN RESPONSE TO THE FEMINISTS AND THE FEMINIZED MALES - PART THREE "...let the women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but let them be in subjection, as also saith the law. And if they would learn anything, let them ask their own husbands at home: for it...

You wrote: "Paul said some questionable things in my opinion..." and I'm sure the regenerate children of God are eager to place your opinion above that of the Holy Spirit inspired Paul. Paul's advice at the earlier part of the chapter - "Yet I would that all men were even as I myself...

Your approach had serious problems when you try to equate the use of a word describing human to human relationships to that of God to human relationships. You say the Hebrew for "help" is used of God also, which indeed it does. But, then you go on to write: "they indicate full equality and...

Cameron, I do believe God has chosen to place many women in office today. Reading Isaiah chapter 3 with the description of God's judgment upon Israel, I see women in the rule as part of the evidence that the USA and church institutions are under judgment also. So much there is similar to how...

The church can choose to obey God, or follow the dictates of the modern humanists! "And Jehovah God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a help meet for him." (Gen 2:18, ASV) "For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man: for neither was the man...

God chose Deborah, but nowhere are we told to choose a woman as elder, leader, official, Pastor, Deacon, etc. We are to mind our own business as to what or who God chooses and we are to follow what he has commanded us. "The secret things belong unto Jehovah our God; but the things that are...

Did you ever read where Dahmer ever expressed conflict between his actions and God's law? Was Dahmer ever concerned about God, or was he thinking merely of society and culture? "Now I rejoice, not because you were grieved, but because your grief led to repentance; for you felt a godly grief...

We can stay with the KJV and it comes out the same, if you take the time to study how the KJV uses the singular "sin" and the plural "sins". Sin in the singular has a general and habitual meaning coming from the sin nature in man and "sins" are particular sins. Then also you must keep track of...
