Yes Scott you quibbled about it and I at one point got tired of hearing about it and listed all my sources in another thread. I have told you I don't find it necessary to list my sources when I am posting on this open thread. I took about 3 hrs for me to compose my first post in here and yes some of it was cut and past from Wayne Jackson (a wonderful writter). If I have writtings on the very subject at hand I will cut and paste. I could put into my own words but I just wanted to save time and I completely agree with what they say. I just wrote a paper based off of our last debate to hand out to others. Guess what, at the end of my paper I listed all the sources I used and I belive that it should be done for something like that but not for on here.
I guess to me it would be one thing if you were using them to pool together your post. When it is cut-and-paste, I would rather see you document your sources, lest someone think that the writing on the post is yours and not someone else's. That, I would say, is intellectual dishonesty.
1peter 3:1 Wives are in subjection to their husbands. Women in the church are in subjection to the men. This is similar to christians being in subjection to the elders. We all serve under Christ the head.
Do you not see a difference between a principle on wives to their husbands and women to men? DO you not see a relationship difference there? Let us not forget that the husband is to submit himself to his wife, as well - (something often forgotten on your side!)
First you must understand that her husband was there with her they both taught Apollos.
Ironically, many times, when the two are mentioned, Priscilla is mentioned first, suggesting that she led the meetings, with her husband by her side.
They took him to the side privately they did not do it publically.
ANd that is in the SCripture...where?
A women can teach a man and lead him to Christ but she should not put her self in a postion where she has authority over him like would be the case if a women preached a message from the word of God to a church that had both men and women in it.
So what is the difference between a woman teach a man and a woman teaching two men? or 50? What is your Scriptural basis here?
We are not told how she aided Paul nor how she aided others. This does not mean that she served some sort of office as deconess nor does this imply that she was in charge of or set over Paul in some sort of authortative way but she was a wonderful women who was servant to the church and aided or broght relied not only to Paul but others that were around her. What a wonder character Phobe had.
Read the previous posts or so for the use of the word prostasis.
It shows the source in the article it says it from (Lightfoot, 96).
Very well - any chance you could find that so we could read it, because I provided a different post, which said that Origen thought Junia was a woman. Plus, the one a few ago - (the website) says that Origen saw Junia as a woman. And finally - Brooten, B. 'Junia Outstanding among the Apostles' in <I>Women Priests: A Catholic Commentary on the Vatican Declaration</I> ed. Swidler L. and Swidler A. (Paulist Press [1977], 144 n 4) shows that Origen uses Junia as a woman.
It is very useful when you cant tell from the English word wheather its in the neuter, male, or female it also very helpful in getting a deeper understanding if something is being spoke of in the present, past or future. Anything beyond the tenses of the words can become very complicated and should not be used in most circumstances. Most things can be easily shown from the English so one should use the Greek in certain areas or situations.
Especially dealing with nuances such as the one found in the second chapter of Timothy, it is very helpful, no?
I await your response.
