    Just because the culture changes doesn't mean the Word of God changes. If God's Word said that slavery was right and what we should do, then we should do it. Scripture really can't be more clear about a woman's role in the church and in marriage. We can never change that.

    I have not seen one woman in my church "suffer the inability to follow their gifts and calling". As a matter of fact, I've not only been able to use my gifts as have the other women in the church but we've been challenged to be stretched even more than we thought we could!!

    I feel sorry for the women living in disobedience and defiance to God's Word.

    God has not called any woman into the ministry...any woman who claims this is in direct rebellion to 1 tim 2;11-15....there is no option here.

    Wrong! You cannot be honest and build a doctrine on one verse.

    *Ahem* They believed it with the same fervor as you do your position, and based their opinion on as much Scripture as you base yours. Your claiming that you think Scripture is clear on the issue doesn't mean it is so. Many, including a majority of non-SBC evangelicals, disagree with you.

    Iconoclast....


    Just like not to too long ago THIS was the accepted view by the vast majority of good bible believing christians in America...


    And they were armed with scripture to support it

    Why do you support the latter, and lot thr former?

    Oh? Paul had a verse that said "I want every believer to own a slave."?

    There isn't even wiggle room. 1Peter 3;7,1Corinthians 14;34 & 35,

    God is not the author of confusion. The doctrine is not built on one verse. Satan will use anything he can to get Christians to rebel.

    So are you saying God doesn't want slaves treated in the manner he described, any longer ? He changed his mind about slaves AND women preachers ?

    I've never met so many who know the mind of God and can speak for Him. And just to think, all this time I've been praying and reading the Bible, and I could have come here to find out what God really says and means!

    So we are looking to Old Testament law for how we are to act in New Testament times? Additionally, when we read the Old Testament law on slavery, we see it is WORLDS different than what slavery was in the Americas. Finally, we see in Paul's letter to Philemon about how we deal with slaves. Yes, he tells us that if we are a slave, we are to obey those in authority over us - just as we are told to do elsewhere. No where in the New Testament are we told to get slaves, encourage slavery or anything. Instead we see Paul encouraging Onesimus' owners to accept him back not as a slave but as a brother. Interesting.

    Does God want slaves to DISOBEY their masters, now that the expiration date on 1Timothy is passed ?

    Well, the Religious Tolerance website has very skewed information and I've read MANY erroneous ideas there so I will not use them as supporting proof.

    Nobody is suggesting that 1 Timothy has expired. Nobody. This issue is in interpretation.

    Let me answer. No. He preached at Ephesus.

    Yet the Corinthians recieve the same set of commands.
