Yes this is 2018,almost 2019. And i find myself having to refresh my mind and heart with scripture about the role of women in The church. I have found at least seven scriptures making it clear as crystal what a womens role in the church cannot be. Read them and weap, or repent of your understanding. Hear are just a few.
1st Timothy 2:12
1st Corinthians chapter 11:verses 7 thru 9.
1st Corinthians chapter 14:verses 32-35.
1st Corinthians chapter 11:verse 3.
Ephs chapter 5:verse 22.
1st Peter 3:5.
Genesis chapter 1: verse 6.
I see no disrespect in any of these scripture writings.
What i do see is that if i as a man try to rewrite the rules given by scripture concerning a womens submission to the authority of men ,given them by the bible, then i am sinning by disregarding God's rule of law passed down From Genesis thru the new testament. It is only when men become scared of women and their personal desires,do they surrender. We must not,IF, we intend to be in God's will. Sorry ladies. We love you and we respect you.
Men have their roles and women have theirs. I must say also that i have been very weak on this issue myself ,over the last few years. But, upon actually studying the word of God, i have repented of my wrong opinion. I must surrender my wrong way of thinking. I must also give an observation that iv'e noticed in many modern preachers.
They have become cowards concerning This issue. They rattle in their shoes over any hint of female confrontation. Ladies have many roles and i love sharing with them,and hearing what they feel concerning our Lord. God bless and i say all this with Love.
Amen.
P.S.
If we use God's order in God's house,then The Lord will see and bless beyond degree.
