  1. There is no ambiguity in scripture. Woman are not to be Bishops (or elders of deacons for that matter). The Church of God is using the worlds arguments to push this issue. in the consistency of scripture there has never been women in Spiritual Leadership over the Church. From OT to NT. The SON’S of Aaron were the High Priests, and the SON’S of Levi were the Priesthood. The Only Priestesses were Temple Prostitutes in Pagan Temples. When Judas died the remaining Apostles choose his replacement and were very specific who was qualified, no women were considered, Jesus had many women among His Disciples, but He chose none of them as Apostles. The first Deacons were to be “Men of God full of the Holy Ghost and Wisdom. Bishops are to be the Husband of one wife, governing their household well. It goes on to say that if they can not govern their own house they could not govern the Church of God. Why is it that this great Church wants to be like the weak worldly Churches around us by compromising scripture? I grew up in the Presbyterian Church in the 1970’s. They faced this same argument, they made their decision based on their view that scripture was not authoritative. They accepted that there are restrictions on women’s ministry in scripture, but they rejected the scripture saying that it was not reliant today. That is where I see the Church of God going, and it sickens me.

  10. I agree, and I cannot imagine any American, male or female who would support of buy into the idea.I had an internet friend, a young lady of 21 who was headed to the Middle East to marry a Muslim. I did not berate her, but I did ask her how she felt about a husband whipping his wife. She said, I will understand,he would not do it if I did not deserve it.I asked her to reconsider, but she disappeared from the internet. I have always wondered, did she? ________________Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/

  11. Bonny, I’m in agreement with you. But I still think it’s foolish for women to strip down and protest topless in a room full of Muslim men who believe women should wear burka’s and who are talking about beating their wives. The article said someone in the audience said to kill them.Btw, ‘patriarchy’ is a very broad term that describes the majority of human societies, not just some specific movement. There is plenty of patriarchy in the Bible, both in the narrative and in prescriptive passages________________

  15. Don’t bother. It’s where they punish a child for crawling off the blanket until the poor child is afraid to crawl off the blanket. I think the Duggars used that method. (Not saying all blanket trainers are wife spankers, of course.) I guess it’s an efficient way to stifle a child’s natural curiosity and make him sit there placidly during church.

  16. Mrs. Duggar showed how she taught her little ones to sit still and praised the for doing it, once, in a clip I saw. I don’t get the impression that their philosophy is one of whipping the kids so that they stay in line. We don’t see them when the cameras aren’t there, but I suspect that would be hard to hide for extended taping. I still think of Mr. and Mrs. Duggar as decent Christian people. They’ve got a son whose had some struggles with sexual sin. They did have an awful lot of children________________
