[quote:Anonymous Coward 30795247:MV8yMDkzNTA1XzM1MjQ4MDk1XzUwMEQ3RTgz] [quote:Anonymous Coward 29363518:MV8yMDkzNTA1XzM1MjQ3OTgzX0Y3QzdDMTJF] To the mindless knowitall who thinks scripture demands women to be doormats.. Did you read my post about what Paul actually taught...in Corinthians the statement about women preaching was a question he was repeating. WHAT, He replied..you think the word of God comes TO YOU ALONE" When Paul said women struggled with him..in the Greek it means they fought, and they endured..it doesn't mean they were making sandwiches for the church picnic. Jesus said to beware specifically one thing..that is the leaven of the Pharisees,,the leaven of the Pharisees is LEGALISM..and bub you are right there. I hear the Maranatha singers on the sound system in my living room. Shall I go turn it off for those songs are clearly preaching a message of God's Love..and we wouldn't want women preaching now would we. Take the tyranny you so dearly love and shove it. I AM a man..and I wonder how your wife endures what goes on behind closed doors. [/quote] 1 Timothy 2:11-12 Let a woman learn in silence with all submission. And I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man, but to be in silence. 1 Corinthians 11:3 But I want you to know that the head of every man is Christ, the head of woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.

Original Message
they are referred to as "the women" in the book of acts... plus mary the mother...
imagine being told, surrounded by a society dominated by men, that you are their equals.. both mentally and spiritually...you are given access to the indwelling spirit of the father and compelled to teach others about this message of love and equality.
This is what these women did
yet generations later.. this equality was lost..and patriarchal reign occurred almost instantly after jesus was crucified...
most people at the time just couldn't comprehend this about women...
so if the bible is gods book, why is there no emphasis on the divine feminine and also these groups of apostles who also taught.. WHO DID NOT ABANDON JESUS , who stated at his side...
hm...
