So none of the judges over God's people taught them anything through their judgements? So was David. Adam was not deceived and yet committed the same sin as Eve anyway. How does that make Adam a better teacher?????

No, I don't believe that being inspired by God means that what you write down must be absolutely, to-a-tee, precise in every aspect and that only the originals had that type of precision. If I did then I would have to concede that God just didn't really care if that precision survived for future...

There has been lots of changes in culture throughout history. As to the question of whether God changed then I would have to remind that God didn't have a problem with Deborah (a woman) to judge over His people and that Athaliah (a woman) ruled over Judah as their monarch on the throne for 6...

Well, I have to wonder if that is really the case. I mean, when a bovine pulled up a plant to eat did the plant not die? If a large rock came loose from a cliff and crushed the bovine, was the bovine unable to die? Or are you applying "death" only in reference to the humans?

Nah. Complaining about proper grammar is a smoke screen used to convince themselves you don't have a clue since you don't always use proper grammar. Those kind of folks must be livid and freaked out when they read improper grammar in scripture! Don't let it get to ya. There are plenty here that...

A point that always needs to be under consideration is the culture at the time. So in today's world I prefer to listen to those based on their knowledge rather than their sex. I can tell you right now in today's culture that I would much much much rather be taught by a woman scholar who has...

Discussion helps to separate wishful thinking from evidence.

If a strict interpretation is to be taken, shouldn’t actual, empirical evidence match these claims? Where in those verses do you see any mention of " only originals"? Are not the copies of scripture we have now profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in...

That is all wonderful thinking and should make it very easy for you to show the evidence that is true. I'll wait for you to post the evidence. And I'll wait for you to post the evidence of the biblical promise which states that only originals were free from errors.

That is an assumption. Since we have no originals there is no evidence to verify that statement. Copies are all we have and copies are all we can go by. And frankly I don't why anyone would have the absolute need to INSIST that the stories men wrote about HAD TO BE without error in order for...

You are confusing the scriptures I quoted. The scripture I quoted where Paul calls a woman the exact same term (diakonos) used for "deacon" in 1 Timothy 3 is: Romans 16 (1) I commend to you our sister Phoebe, a servant [diakonos] of the church at Cenchreae,

So can men.

I quoted scripture where Paul calls a woman the exact same term (diakonos) used for "deacon" in 1 Timothy 3. Amen.

Poppycock. Paul disagrees that the examples given in the OT are not for us (ie. believers). 1 Corinthians 10 (6) Now these things took place as examples for us, that we might not desire evil as they did. . . (11) Now these things happened to them as an example, but they were written down for...

You might want to broaden your scripture search of what God intends for men and women. Take a gander at: Joel 2 (28) And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh; your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, and your young...

Right. Alan Segal and Benjamin Sommer are two Jewish scholars that have also written books documenting a lot of the ancient Jewish writings that speak of it. And neither of them believe Jesus is the Messiah, so one cannot say they have a "Christian" bias. And yet they both readily admit that...

hehe! Can't believe what anyone tells ya anyway. Got dudes all over the place calling himself a woman these days.

Nah. He just cries like one. ((((((just kidding))))))) Some people will look for anything as an excuse for their lack of knowledge. It's easier than getting an education. I'm so glad I'm smart.

No problem, it happens. Live and learn. The scripture you posted is: 1 Timothy 3:1-3 (KJV) "This is a true saying, If a "man" desire the office of a bishop, "he" desireth a good work. 2A bishop then must be blameless, "the husband of one wife," vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to...

Your logic is flawed. If one uses a pic of their favorite dog then you shouldn't assume they are a dog. He said "nope" to the thread title question which is: Should We Have Women Pastors Today? And you falsely accused him of rejecting the word of God and wanting to remove scripture. And now...
