If any come to my house to be instructed in the ways of God what rule have I to put them away? Do you think it not lawful for me to teach women and why do you call me to teach the court?
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The priests are debarred from female society, nor is any woman permitted to enter the religious houses.
The divine law indeed has excluded women from this ministry, but they endeavour to thrust themselves into it; and since they can effect nothing of themselves, they do all through the agency of others.
Women become the objects of rules; they are repressed and lose their rights in the name of religion, or they lose their freedom in the name of tradition, while the state legitimates this foolishness with laws.
As God commands us men to teach your wife, to teach your children - to be the spiritual leader of your family - you're acting as a priest. Now, unfortunately, unfortunately, in too many Christian homes, the role of the priest is assumed by the wife.
It is often necessary to know how to obey a woman in order sometimes to have the right to command her.
Yes, I will bring the understanding of a woman to the Court, but I doubt that alone will affect my decisions.
I figured out it was a social thing, what women were allowed to do. At a very young age, I decided I was not going to follow women's rules.
We follow the rules laid out in the Bible for running our church.
Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law.
Because my dad abused me, I was determined to never let a man tell me what to do. God clearly showed me that I needed to be a submissive wife if I wanted to be effective in ministry. The truth is, if we don't learn to submit to authority, we won't ever learn to submit to God.
