    By the way -- if you claim to be a Christian...

    Hmmm… notice that this sees the value of a woman solely in terms of what she can do for a man. That is denigrating.

    By the way -- if you claim to be a Christian...

    Oh I have and as a Christian who values women I also believe this about them, how wise and capable they are: ”An excellent wife who can find? She is far more precious than jewels. The heart of her husband trusts in her, and he will have no lack of gain. She does him good, and not harm, all the...

    Do people still believe everyone decended from Adam and Eve?

    This article supports there being gender in the strict biological sense and in other senses of the term. Why is wisdom referred to as a she in Proverbs? | GotQuestions.org

    Slavery

    I just noticed this appalling comment. So the moral of the story appears to be, if you want a woman bad enough, you should overpower her and rape her, then she'll be forced to be yours forever, that is, as long as she can't fight you off. What do you find particularly moral about something so...

    Slavery

    This all sounds suspiciously like moral relativism to me. :unamused:

    Slavery

    Oh dear....you don't think that culture had anything to do with what happened in every day Israelite life? Plonked into todays world it seems ridiculous....but in that time period, its the way things were....no one expected anything different. Go back to the way things were even at the turn of...

    Who Has the truth? Who Will Bring World Peace?

    This is indeed informative. But all this stuff is said by Paul, who had actually never met Jesus and was a late convert to Christianity after years of persecuting them severely. I am only interested in the biblical teachings as taught by Christ that women ought to be submissive to men and be...

    Who Has the truth? Who Will Bring World Peace?

    The principle of headship is outlined in the Bible by the apostle Paul.... "But I want you to know that the head of every man is the Christ; in turn, the head of a woman is the man; in turn, the head of the Christ is God." (1 Corinthians 11:3) There is order in all that God does. Even Christ...

    Mosaic law still present?

    I hate links unless they back your own condensed version. As a "good wife" is hard to find, finding more than one would be a challenge. Apparently after "Jacob's distress" (Jeremiah 30:7), there will be more hanging around (Isaiah 4:1), after Jacob has been "chastened justly" but not destroyed...

    Is gullibility a virtue in Christianity?

    Are you serious sojourner... or are you just playing? You take a scripture that uses the pronoun 'your' to claim that by saying 'your wife', is treating her as a piece of property? So when the Bible says... (Genesis 12:1) . . .And Jehovah said to Aʹbram: “Go out from your land and away from your...

    Is gullibility a virtue in Christianity?

    From one source: “...although wives were included among a man’s possessions, they were not reckoned as property. In Exodus 20:17 the commandment against coveting includes the wife as part of the household, along with slave, ox, and donkey ... nonetheless, the Bible was written and compiled by...

    what scriptures in the Old Testament would you recommend on understanding the nature of a woman?

    Proverbs 7:1-27 Proverbs 31:10-31 Proverbs 15:18-23 Proverbs 6:23-35 Proverbs 23:27-28 Pro 19:13 A foolish child is a father’s ruin, and a quarrelsome wife is like the constant dripping of a leaky roof. Pro 19:14 Houses and wealth are inherited from parents, but a prudent wife is from the...

    Training men and boys to honor women in the age of #MeToo

    If you don't deal in absolutes and women are valued for strength and merit, including leadership, and that there are no ideal gender norms for individules... go petition your congregation for a female elder.

    Training men and boys to honor women in the age of #MeToo

    You do understand that I am speaking generally....why do you guys always jump to the conclusion that I am speaking about you personally? If you have a system that is working for you, then well done.....most people don't. It isn't the roles that are artificially produced, but the definition...

    When is it permissible to divorce?

    Put into today's context, of course it sounds archaic...it was. The system that operated in Israel at the time meant that women did not expect to be equal with men in the headship arrangement. In any company, a manager or CEO is the one who makes the final decisions and the buck stops with them...

    women priests in christianity?

    No... not all referenced to priesthood is future: 1 Peter 2:5 Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ. "are built up" is present tense. We ARE a holy priesthood. 1 Peter 2: But ye are a...

    women priests in christianity?

    The one thing that most denominations of Christendom miss is the fact that there were no priests officiating in the first century church. The priesthood promised to Christ's disciples was not on earth and the ones chosen for that role could only hold that position in heaven. All reference to...

    If god was female

    Since gender is only for procreation, you are correct. Angels too are genderless. It wasn't that males were superior at all. It was that someone needed to be the driver of the family unit. We know why cars only have one steering wheel and one set of controls. The man was to take responsibility...

    Paul on Women, Sex and Dress

    In Jesus's day, there were "prohibitions against teaching women Torah." ("Women in Judaism,"Wikipedia accessed 6/4/2010). Orthodox Jews still struggle with their oral law prohibition against teaching women the Torah. (Think of the movie Yentyl.) They try to find ways to limit the rule or have...
