Children need a mother to watch over them and a Dad to watch over every one.<br />Children are Gods' gift/blessing to us all and should always be treasured.Adults must sacrifice of themselves for their children.They did not ask to be born so if they are, it's because you are ready to take on the responsibility .A Lady's Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11973102350411443282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8772669.post-59795013773607250522014-11-01T20:17:46.421-05:002014-11-01T20:17:46.421-05:00I found your post very enlightening.

He is very good about researching the history behind the bible and putting the information into the context of the time it was written. About this passage he taught that at the time Corinth was a major trade city, and the language that was spoken in Corinth was different from the trade language at the time. Since at the time it was the secular culture of the world that dictated that only the men worked and women would take care of the house (and sometimes take up small trades, sewing, pottery, etc) only men knew the trade language. Also the tradition in the church at the time was that women and men would sit at opposite sides of the church, and the message would be in the trade language. Since the women did not understand and it was rude at the time to talk to a man that was not her husband, all the women would talk over the service to ask what the men what was being taught. This obviously would disrupt the service and cause confusion. Which is why the bible advised against it, and taught that the women should wait till they were home to have the husband tell of the message. <br /><br />Hope this was helpfulAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8772669.post-77087264017063941122014-01-04T21:48:30.470-06:002014-01-04T21:48:30.470-06:00You made no points.

If you catch a woman speaking during church make sure that she no her role!<br /><br />Now you can try all you want to fish out some other part of the bible that contradicts this. But your scraping the bottom of the bucket here my friend.<br /><br />By admitting that its OK for woman to speak during the church you are admitting the bible is full of contradiction.<br /><br />Or at least admitting that it has been written in a way that it incredibly open to interpretation.<br /><br />I hope you allow my post to be seen and i would be interested in any feed back.<br /><br />-Antony<br />p.s delete the advertising spam.

He did not demolish the old testament, but he made changes that people could live by. His message was new and profound and consist of love and understanding. There are many female preachers and teachers today. We have to work our own salvation and there is nothing saying a woman cannot speak in church.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11609453226229452834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8772669.post-59606657651992330402013-03-24T22:24:47.836-05:002013-03-24T22:24:47.836-05:00place your readings into their cultural, not Ameri...place your readings into their cultural, not American context, you understanding will change significantly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8772669.post-18353204137673468322013-01-05T14:51:30.058-06:002013-01-05T14:51:30.058-06:00Forget conventional "church" wisdom.

Yet another means of separating "church" from cultural practicality... perpetuation of an "us vs. them" mentality. I wouldn't stop to pee on a man engulfed in fire if he was the kind of misogynistic asshat convinced that women shouldn't speak or ask questions in any situation or setting.

At church, there was a bit of a discussion about 1st Timothy 2:12, because we are preaching through 1st Timothy.
