I think you are getting emotional about ...Martin, <br /><br />I think you are getting emotional about semantics. Whether Paul used the words is irrelevant if the words used convey the same thing.<br /><br />A wife is NOT equal in the home to her husband as far as the leadership role -- she is 2nd in command. She is equal to her husband as a human and as a Christian. Different roles often have a hierarchy, which doesn't lead to inequality of humanity, rather it is "inequality" of leadership. Yes, "equality" is a very loaded word, especially in today's culture of the LEFT. But the fact remains as MLJ stated it.Glenn E.

We need to use terms such as different role rather than unequal and I would suggest that many men and women don't use terms like second in command or unequal but still maintain a biblical compatability. If the man is like Christ in the home then washing of feet and service would be key.Martinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6043971967398769903.post-2043427969727488562016-04-24T07:28:11.990-05:002016-04-24T07:28:11.990-05:00Martin,
CONTEXT.
The point is that they say wome...Martin, <br />CONTEXT.<br /><br />The point is that they say women are to be all these things while the men are to be the dumb ones. And no, the woman is NOT equal in that the wife is 2nd in command in the home. He's not saying a woman is not to be "cultured" rather he is making an opposite statement -- the thought is that the husband is to be none of these things and the wife is to be all of them.Glenn E.

Women daring to be the cultured person?? Where anywhere in the bible does it say that women aren't to be cultured? Where does it say that children should or could only look to the dad or the mum but can't or shouldn't look to both? Sometimes it is easy to think that writers are projecting their own beliefs into a text rather than the other way round. Martinnoreply@blogger.com
