In the Garden of Eden God told Adam and Eve they could eat
from every tree in the garden except one.
Satan told Eve it would be allright to eat and she listened
to Satan and then she got Adam to listen to her.
Many of today's church's have gone back to the garden.
God's word says that women are not to teach or show authority over men. Satan tells the women that it's allright for them to do it. The women listens to Satan
and then she goes and tells the male leadership in the
church and the male leadership says it's allright.
It just blows my mind when I see the word or God saying
one thing and the church saying and doing just the opposite.
And don't say that I'm a male chauvenist. I believe that
the church wouldn't exist if it weren't for women. And I
believe that they are just as knowledgeable about the Word
of God as men. But I also believe that God knows best and
He said it's not to be done. One other reason God does not
want women teaching men or showing authority over men is
that in His word He compares women to a weaker vessel.
So in conclussion I will never understand how anyone can
see God's word saying that something shouldn't be done and
then they turn around and do it anyway. Welcome back to
the garden.
