Also, when Paul told Christian wives to submit to their husbands, he would have also told the men to submit to their wives, if women didn't have to submit to their husbands as the head of the home.
That must mean you are not willing to submit to God, or the Torah. For God is the One who inspired Paul to give this command to Christian women. Furthermore, Peter gave the example of woman submission by the life of Sarah, who willingly and lovingly submitted to Abraham. :yes:
It seems to me that if this question was put to every evangelical Christians today in Australia and in the West, there would be three main responses. The first and overwhelming response would likely be, yes of course the Bible allows women to lead, teach, preach or speak in the Church. The...
It is true that one can only be saved by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ (Eph. 2:8-9), and the reason is so that no one can boast before God. However, what constitutes Christian good works? The apostle James tells us in James 2:14-17, "What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith...
God gave the Sabbath Day to the Old Testament Israelites, for it was a time where they could rest their bodies one day out of seven. Also, during this time, they would be able to worship God as a family, and as a people, not having the responsibilities of work to interrupt. On the other hand...
There are many different forms of baptism today, but there was only one form in the days of John the Baptist and the early church (i.e. days of the apostles). It was believers baptism by immersion, which was an outward sign that the candidate had already died with Christ to their sinful...
Isn't it interesting that everyone out there who isn't a Christian, arrogantly thinks they know more about God and the Bible than born again Christians. It's most likely that Cain went to hell, unless of course he truly repented of his sin, trusted and loved God, and put his hope in the promised...
The fact that we are here on this earth and that the universe exists, logically tells us that there is a divine Creator who is much greater than us. Atheist's ask the question, well who made God then? However, this is illogical, because if God made all things, and this out of nothing, obviously...
Yes of course the Bible applies today, from Genesis to Revelation. For Paul wrote in 2 Tim. 3:14-17, "But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it, 15 and how from infancy you have known the holy Scriptures, which...
When Jesus said, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me" (Jn. 14:6), He was basically teaching what He had already said in Jn. 3:14-18, "Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the desert, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, 15 that everyone who...
Christians are against homosexuality because God is against it as you have sited in Leviticus, and as we can clearly see in Genesis in regards to Sodom and Gommorah.
Jesus is against it "MK 7:20 He went on: "What comes out of a man is what makes him `unclean.' 21 For from within, out of men's...
The Brethren denomination of Christians definately believe in the inspiration of the Old and New Testament Scriptures, hell and 6 day Creation, as do all true Bible-believing Christians. Jesus believed in the inspiration of the OT Scriptures, this should be enough to convince any professing...
My dear friend, you have asked a very important question, one that I have asked for many years as a Christian i.e. why women are preaching etc in the church when Paul clearly forbade it in Scripture. Firstly, why did Paul gave the injunction or prohibition? He did so because he was fully (2 Tim...
Of course the Triune God is male in gender, i.e. God the Father, not mother; the Holy Spirit is called "He" many times in Scripture; and Jesus is called God's Son, not daughter.
