The God Who Forgives! Click to View Forgiveness is the perfume a flower leaves on the heel that crushed it. It is an undeserved grace that one who is sinned against grants the one who sinned against them. The word "grace" means literally in the original Greek "unmerited favor". It is through God's grace, mercy and forgiveness that we have the forgiveness of our sins. Every man has sinned before God, 1 John 8-10 "If we say that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us." When Jesus hung on the cross, He being God, showed the perfect example in the attitude we must have in forgiving others. He said, "Father forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing." Lk 23:34. We take for granted how easily God forgives us while we will not forgive others who sin ... ...

10: When young people finally leave home for good.
When young people finally leave home for good. Young people leave home for a variety of reasons. The most usual is that they grow up and leave their parents to be on their own, and to start a home of their own. Sometimes children leave because of conflict within the home. Whatever the reason, when you leave home, time should be taken for deep consideration and for prayers for guidance. Take full advantage of this golden opportunity to improve the direction of your life toward the higher and the better. You should, at this time, review the goals of your life thoroughly, I suggest that you study the message, "What Youth Can Do". If you judge your life to be lacking in goal and purpose, or headed in a direction away from these desirable ends, re-evaluate your attitude and prepare yourself for changed ideas and standards. If you are already aligned with Godly goals and intent, your job is to reinforce and continue to develop these attitudes and to take all precautions not to lose ground ... ...

12: Why Does God Allow Suffering?
Why Does God Allow Suffering? Click to View Click to View see also: Why did God Kill My loved one? The I can remember a lady years ago who gave up her faith in God because her son was killed by a train on a snowy night. She kept saying to me, "How could God allow this to happen? If there is a God, he is either indifferent to us or just doesn't care." I am reminded of another story of a young grain farmer who spent his last dollars on seed for a crop which was wiped out by drought and hail. He missed church for 3 months blaming it on God. The preacher came and said to him, "Son, God knows that, while it is impossible to grow good grain with a drought, it is also impossible to grow good men without a drought. God's object is to grow men not grain!" Insurance policies usually have a clause describing "acts of God". These are all the natural disasters that inflict pain and suffering on man.

13: Teens! Use Your Freedom Wisely!
Use Your Freedom Wisely! There is a positive kind of freedom and there is a negative kind of freedom. Positive freedom is liberty to become and to do as we should. Negative freedom is liberty from control, from regulation, and from restraint. People under positive freedom live in mutual accord governed by laws that protect the vital interests of all. An example is where vast numbers of automobiles, driven by non-professional drivers, ply crowded streets rarely having difficulty. Here, all benefit while most follow the rules although they might find it easier to speed, to cut corners, to use wrong lanes, or to ignore traffic signals. People acting without controls under negative freedom do so although their exercise of freedom might violate the rights of others. Consider how a student's freedom to play his stereo loudly in the dormitory conflicts with the rights of other students to study or to rest, or how the freedom of one student to cheat on tests denies all of the other students ... ...

Charles Sykes is the author of Dumbing Down Our Kids. He volunteered for high school and college graduates a list of things he did not learn in school. In his book, he talks about how the liberal, feel-good, politically correct garbage has created a generation of kids with no concept of reality and set them up for failure in the real world. Rule #1. Life is not fair Get used to it. The average teenager uses the phrase "it's not fair" 8.6 times a day. You got it from your parents. Who said it so often you decided they must be the most idealistic generation ever. When they started hearing it from their own kids, They realized Rule #1. Rule #2. The real world won't care as much about your self-esteem as your-school does, it will expect you to accomplish something before you feel good about yourself. This may come as a shock. Usually, when inflated self-esteem meets reality, kids complain that it's not fair. (See Rule No. 1) Rule #3. Sorry, you won't make $40,000 a year right out of high ... ...

15: Teenage Marriage: Weigh it carefully!
Teenage Marriage: Weigh it carefully! The rapid increase in the number of early marriages over the past several years coupled with the extremely high rate of divorce within this same group makes this subject extremely important. If you are a teenager and are seriously considering an early marriage, these are a number of potential problem areas of which you should be aware, so that, if you do decide that this is the best course of action, you will be alert to the possible difficulties which could lie ahead. First, the problem of adequate financial support is obvious. Although money does not buy happiness, it is true that a tight financial situation can create tensions which can undermine an otherwise happy relationship. While some financial problems are to be expected in almost any new marriage, it is important to take time to think sensibly, so that such problems will not destroy what could otherwise be a beautiful relationship, if not undertaken prematurely. This is not to suggest ... ...

16: 10 Things young people can do for God.
Things young people can do for God. Some of the world's greatest accomplishments have been done by young men and women. Alexander the Great became king before he was thirty years old. Some of the great works of Shelley, Byron, Keats, Chopin, and Mozart were composed when they were teenagers. Hitler and Mussolini built their power on the dedication and energy of young people. Today, Communists make their strongest sales pitch to youth, because they know of the influence and dedication of the young. Now, much of the mission work of the church is being done by young adults. And the church needs consecrated young people. Times are perilous and our cause is the greatest that the world has ever known. The very hope of the human race lies in wise youth committed to high principles. Young people need the church - they need Christ. Those who are indifferent to the way of the Lord are inviting sorrow on their lives and souls. Jesus says to young and old alike, "If any man will come after me, let ... ...

17: Is running away from your parents home the answer?
For various reasons many young people run away. Often, they are seeking a solution to some kind of problem or they have allowed someone else, who also wants to run away, to influence them. Most young people do not realize the dangers and temptations that they face. Runaway girls are often like sheep among wolves. There is plenty of male companionship, perhaps a free meal and a temporary place to stay, but the girl must pay the price. In many cases the price is the sacrificing of her moral character. Other forms of mistreatment may occur, even to the loss of life. The question for boys is, how will they live when their money is gone? Jobs are hard to get, especially during the school term when it is unlawful to employ youth of school age during school hours. There is the temptation to steal. If they are driving a car, how will they get the money for gas? If they have stolen a car, the crime becomes more serious when they cross the state line. In most cases they may be picked up by the ... ...

Taking a book off the shelf he found himself intrigued, not with the words of the book, but with the notes penciled in the margin. The soft handwriting reflected a thoughtful soul and insightful mind. In the front of the book, he discovered the previous owner's name, Miss Hollis Maynell. With time and effort he located her address. She lived in New York City. He wrote her a letter introducing himself and inviting her to correspond.

19: Taking Revenge Is Not So Sweet!
Taking your own Revenge Is NOT So Sweet! In his popular book, None of These Diseases, Dr. S.I. McMillan, entitles one of his chapters, "The High Cost of Getting Even". According to Dr. McMillan, the failure to possess a spirit of forgiveness makes us susceptible to many diseases of body and mind. Because we cannot resist the temptation to get even, we pay the high price of a pound of our own flesh. Toxic goiter, strokes of apoplexy, heart attacks, high blood pressure, ulcers and many other serious ailments afflict millions of people, and often it's a direct result of the inability to forgive. Dr. McMillan states it might truthfully be written on many thousands of death certificates that the victims died of "grudgitis". We have heard people say from between clenched teeth, "I'll get even with that skunk if it's the last thing I ever do". Too often, it is exactly that. When Jesus said, "Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good unto them that hate you, and pray for, them who ... ...

(Perhaps Jesus deliberately chose Mary as the first because He knew the male disciples needed to learn a lesson about listening and respecting the opinions of women).

Eunice and Lois were commended for teaching their children the gospel. In Col 4:15, Nympha allowed the church to meet in her house every Lord's day. Pheobe was called a "servant of the church...worthy of all respect" Rom 16:1-2. We have Philip's four daughters who prophesied in Acts 21:9.

Why did God Kill My loved one? Why did God allow my husband to die? I prayed for him. Why did God no answer my prayer? Why did God take my child whom I loved? Why would God be so heartless and cruel? How could a loving God do such a thing? Why does God allow suffering? Does God even exist? Why??? I have heard these kinds of questions many times. Someone gets sick and dies, and the surviving loved one goes on a "Hate God" rampage! You have no more of a right to get angry at God when your loved one dies, then when you stub your toe. Stated differently, it is as logical to get angry at God for stubbing your toe, as it is to be angry at God when your loved one dies. First lets clear a few things up. Life on earth is not predestined where God chose before the earth was created who would live, and when and how they would die. Fate and predestination are both false doctrines of Calvinism. Second, God did not make your loved one sick, neither did he kill him as a direct act. (Although God does ... ...

...Submission is based upon ancient, old fashioned, outmoded cultural. This is modern age. You are out dated. How dare you talk that way about women. Get with it, this is the 21st century!" Answer: There are 8 reasons why women must submit regardless of culture: (1) Creation order: Man was created first, woman second: 1 Timothy 2:13 (2) Creation origin: Man and all creation was created by God directly out of dust, whereas woman was created through the man's rib.: Genesis 2:22 (3) Man named woman: Adam named the animals and Eve, and was to rule over them. Genesis 2:19; 1:28; 2:23 (4) Delegation principle: The prohibition to not eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, was made directly by God to Adam. Adam, in turn relayed what God said to Eve. Genesis 2:16-18 (5) Woman sinned first: 1 Timothy 2:14; Genesis 3:1 (6) God rebuked Adam first after they ate the forbidden fruit showing his headship: Genesis 3:9 (7) Paul pointed Christians to the Mosaic Law that was 1500 earlier and a ... ...

27: 4 Key Words To A Happy Home!
Key Words To A Happy Home! The home should be the happiest spot we can ever know on earth. In it we have the very closest and dearest relationships, and it can be the constant source of strength and inspiration. But to create and preserve the happiness of the home requires certain qualities and attitudes which may be designated by four key words. The first and most important of these is LOVE. Ideally it is an unselfish love that brings a man and woman together to form a home, and ideally, it is love which increases that happiness of the home with children. The love which binds a family together is partly an impulse of nature, but in the Christian home, it is far more unselfish than a mere natural impulse. In Ephesians 5:25-31, the Apostle Paul says, "husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church and gave himself up for it; that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the washing of water with the word, that he might present the church to himself a glorious church, ... ...

Bible help to Overcome Personal Depression! Within the Pages of the Bible are the answers to man's most pressing needs. At this moment, you may be very discouraged about life. Life may now appear to you as an endless, tragic treadmill, not really worth living or having. Perhaps you are saying, right now, life holds nothing for me, it is only a bum rap, a lousy trip. Nobody loves me; nobody cares if I live or die. In the midst of your despair, and your doubt, and frustration, and hopelessness, I want you to realize that Jesus Christ offers to you another view of life; a view that is truly beautiful. Jesus has some special words for us: He said, "I came that they may have life, and have it more abundantly" (John 10:10). With these words, Jesus lifts life above the physical realm and assures us that the abundant life has a divine and eternal quality. The Bible tells us that we were created in the very image or likeness of God, and you can be sure that if God made us like himself, then our ... ...

29: Three different kinds of love
Let Me Count The 3 Ways! Click to View When someone says "I love you" it could mean many different things. Here are three different kinds of love. First kind of love: The "IF kind of love" says, "I will love you IF you do things my way, IF you give me gifts, IF you become a good provider, IF you get a good report card at school." It is a conditional love based upon future expectations. If these conditions are not met, then like a legal contract, love is broken. This is a selfish love because it is solely based upon future expectations. It is love that must be earned. Most marriages fail because they are based upon this conditional love. Children are often heard saying, "I will be your friend" IF you let me play with your new toy; till then I hate you. Thus the IF kind of love is a fickle unstable love. This is the childish love we are all born with. It is a worldly love of natural instincts. We need to mature out of the IF kind of love! Second kind of love: The "because of" kind of ... ...

30: A Better Life than this?
Today we live in a world that is constantly seeking for happiness. Everyone has a mania about being happy or high and it has become a national hobby with us. It is also a billion dollar business. Everywhere we turn someone has something that will make us happy. If we drink a certain beer, buy a certain car, wear a certain pair of pants, dab ourselves with a certain perfume, or brush with Ultra-Bright we are going to be happy. Sometimes our search for happiness costs us or hurts us badly. Seeking happiness, some turn to heavy drinking and lose their dignity or more, some turn to dope and drugs and lose their life, some seek happiness in a few minutes of fun and games with sex and lose. Yet Satan continues to help the happiness sellers package their fun in brightly colored, eye-appealing packages that make us want them desperately. Satan somehow convinces us that if we just had: a souped up car, a new dress, a good-looking boy or girl friend, lots of money, popularity, a sex life, a good ... ...

31: Could my children's faith in Santa destroy their faith in God ...
...Claus is God in the eyes of young children! Do you lie to your children? Click to View Remember the excitement of Christmas eve as children when we couldn't get to sleep. We were awaiting the arrival of Santa-Claus. We were told that "He knows when you are sleeping, he knows when you're awake, he knows if you've been bad or good, so be good for goodness sake". Now children know Santa-Claus lives far away on the North pole and they have never met him. Children can understand how parents know if they've been bad or good, but for a perfect stranger that lives far away to know when they are sleeping or awake is nothing short of supernatural. In fact Santa-Claus to a child is an exact representation of God to an adult. Children are taught to believe in this "all knowing", "always present", "all powerful" giver of best gifts. In fact, a child's faith in Santa-Claus is in my opinion more powerful than their faith in God himself. I am reminded of a boy in my grade 2 class. It was just before ... ...

32: The Bible kind of Love!
The Bible kind of Love! It is impossible to discuss love in one little article. Volumes of books have been written about love, and I only want to add a few thoughts in relationship with love in the family situation. Turn and read the great love chapter of the Bible I Corinthians 13. Remember, as you read-that Paul does not tell what love is, but rather what love does. Read 1 Corinthians 13: 1-13 One of the fundamental thoughts that we can derive from these series of verses is that when we love someone we are concerned about them and their welfare. What about love in the family between husband and wife, and parents and children? There is much difficulty today because we do not understand what love is. We usually have a very immature concept of love. Some believe that love is a mysterious something that takes hold of you just like taking the measles. Others say or feel that it may go just as quickly as it came. But love is more than just a tingling sensation that runs up and down your ... ...

33: Secret Of Personal Contentment at home
Drug companies are becoming wealthy selling pills to relax people. Yet, when these same people become relaxed, they often turn to "pep" pills to pull themselves back up so they can go to work next week. Thus, life becomes a real rat race between pill bottles and liquor bottles. In fact, dependence on drugs and alcohol constitutes one of our nation's major health problems. There is no doubt about it, the intellectual climate of modern man presents a real paradox. The so-called miracles of modern science may have helped us live longer, and even more comfortably; but, science has not been able to help us live more contentedly and better. Today there are millions of people suffering from severe mental depression. All of us have come to realize that suffering humanity is searching for a contentment which the world cannot give them through tranquilizers nor scientific technology. Mankind searches for a peace free of conflict, but where will they ever find it? The great Apostle Paul knew the ... ...

34: Bible Help to Overcome Loneliness!
Bible Help to Overcome Loneliness! Click to View A friend told me recently, "I visited a lonely old lady just the other day. She was in a rest home, the victim of a stroke. For her, life had become bitter and frustrating. She complained because she felt her friends and family had almost deserted her. Nothing that was done for her was quite right. She felt all alone". Now this picture is not uncommon in these times. Even in areas of vast population, there are many people who are lonely. Perhaps at times, it is almost a certainty that you and I will experience this feeling of helplessness that we call loneliness. Many years ago in the period of the Divided Kingdom of Israel, during the reign of King Ahab and his queen Jezebel, there lived a Godly man by the name of Elijah. Yet after Elijah fought against the evils of his day, and particularly after his contest on Mount Camel with the 450 false prophets of Baal, he felt that he must be all alone and he wanted to run away. He did so, and ... ...

35: Jesus Is The Example For Children In The Home
...Our youths love luxury. They have bad manners, contempt for authority--they show disrespect for their elders and love to chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when their elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up food, and tyrannize teachers." (Socrates, c. 400 B.C.) 2. There are numerous rules and laws in the Bible that deal with the children's responsibility in the home However, not all problems can be solved by reading rules. The application in specific circumstances often prove difficult. 3. Bible teaches by both precept and example; rule and illustration (cf. Subject of conversion) Thus divine message clearly understood. 4. This evening I propose to consider the laws of God on this subject in the context of the divine example found in this single incident recorded from the boyhood of Jesus. Cf. I Jn.2:6 I.

36: The results of NOT Disciplining Children the Bible way!
The results of NOT Disciplining Children the Bible way! Click to View The disastrous consequences of parental indulgence is dramatically illustrated in the lives of three of God's great servants, Eli, Samuel, and David. Eli's sin, so serious that it caused God to condemn his house forever, was that "his sons made themselves vile, and he restrained them not" (I Samuel 3:13). Those boys' conduct was so offensive that worshipers began to hold the Lord's sacrifice in contempt (I Samuel 2:17). Israel rebelled against God because Samuel's sons did not follow in their father's footsteps, but were intent on their own profit, taking bribes and perverting the course of justice (I Samuel 8:3-5). Adonijah, David's handsome son, rebelled and attempted to usurp the throne in David's old age because, never in his life had his father corrected him or asked why he behaved as he did (I Kings 1:6). Termination of a priestly dynasty, Israel's rejection of God, and treason in the royal family all were the ... ...

37: How to survive a church service with [your] small children!
Expect your child to sit quietly. 3. Do not pass children from pew to pew during worship service. 4. Be certain that your child uses the washroom and gets a drink before worship begins. 5. Talk to the child about being quiet before services begin. 6. Use sign language. A parent's correction is often more disturbing than the child's behavior. 7. Attend every service, gospel meetings, ladies classes & use as opportunities to train your child. 8. It may be helpful to give a child a soft toy (i.e. cloth rubber or plastic toy) to occupy him. 9. Learn to overlook small annoyances. 10. Make trips out unpleasant enough that they will be few and far between. 11. Do not leave your child in the care of other children. 12. Avoid allowing the child to become excited immediately before worship. 13. Be an example. Don't "visit" with those sitting near you during worship. 14.

38: 11 Patterns of submission & headship in the Bible
Wives must submit to their husbands as husbands submit to others! For women to complain about submitting to their husbands completely misses the fact that she and her husband are commanded to submit in 10 additional areas! This is a summary of all passages relating to submission and headship in the New Testament. For wives to deny they must submit to their husbands means they must deny the inspiration of scripture itself. From the chart below, it is clear that men must submit to headship in 10 of the 11 categories. Women must submit to headship in all eleven categories below. For women to refuse to submit to their husbands becomes quite illogical, unless they rebel in all 11 categories. Note that men never refuse to submit in their 10 categories below, so why should any wife refuse to submit to her husband? B.

39: The Bible and Children's Responsibility to the Parents
The key words are "honor" and "obey". There is no time limit on this. God does not free a child from this responsibility simply because he has now gone to college or is married. A child in the earliest years of adulthood makes a tragic mistake by neglecting his parents. It is necessary that we say something about the word "obey". Children are to obey their parents "in the Lord". One must never forget that his allegiance to God comes before any man. That includes government, companions and parents. The early apostles expressed it well when they were commanded not to preach in the name of Christ. They responded by saying in Acts 5, verse 29, "We ought to obey God rather than men". The term "obey your parents" indicates that the parents have laid down some laws or provided some instruction to guide the children. This is what is meant by the wise man when he said in Proverbs 22, verse 6, "Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old he will not depart from it". It is ... ...

Could you loan me ten dollars?" the boy asked. Showing his restlessness and positively disturbed, the father yelled: "So that was the reason you asked how much I earn, right?Go to sleep and don't bother me anymore!"

Finally, trying to ease his mind, the father went to his son's room. "Are you asleep, son?" asked the father. "No, Daddy. Why?" replied the boy, partially asleep.

The Husband's Responsibility to his Wife & the Bible! The position of the husband in the home and his related responsibilities are quite clearly defined in principle in Ephesians 5:22, 28-31. "Wives submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. For the husband is head of the wife, even as Christ is head of the church; and he is the savior of the body. Therefore as the church is subject to Christ, so let wives be to their own husbands in everything. Husbands, love your wife as Christ also loved the church and gave himself for it . . . So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. For no man ever yet hated his own flesh but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church . . . For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother and shal.1 be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh".

Your marriage is sent to an early grave by a series of little digs! Someone has observed that a successful marriage is one where the wife gives the best years of her life to the man who makes them the best years. Someone else has said that a good marriage partner is comparable with a good athlete … he gives most when the going is tough. Couples who have these attitudes in their marriage will certainly succeed. Of course, the best advice cannot help without the cooperation of the people involved. The following suggestions will help to assure success in marriage, if they are practiced. But, like the doctor's medicine, they will, only if they are used. If you want to succeed in marriage, avoid being negative, picky, or critical with your partner. Here is the way some husbands sound: "The pancakes are cold"; or, "the eggs aren't done"; or, "the coffee's too strong"; or, "Why isn't dinner ready"; or, "why don't you clean the house"; or, "why aren't you dressed?".

44: Parent's Responsibility to Children & the Bible
Nazareth and he was subject to them". The "he" in the passage was Jesus and the "them" was Mary and Joseph. The broad principle illustrated in this passage teaches that parents are given by God the authority to direct, guide, teach and discipline their children. If the son of God accepted the authority of earthly parents how much more ought the sons and daughters of men be under the authority of their parents. The next principle illustrated by this statement in Luke shows that children are to accept their direction and to be subject to their parents. To provide that direction for their children, parents must take the job of being parents seriously. Being a parent is much more than fulfilling a biological function. It means being concerned about every aspect of the child's growth and development. It means caring where the child is and who his friends are. It means knowing his interests and encouraging right and proper ones and discouraging - even forbidding - those that are ... ...

46: Is Birth Control Sinful?
The sexual desire was created by God, and it is good. However, like every good thing, it must be kept in its proper place. Marriage is the only proper place for sexual relations, and if they take place outside of the marriage, they are sinful. In this connection, please also study the message titled "Sex Before Marriage". We will find the answer to the birth control question when we find from the Bible the purposes of sexual relations in marriage. Soon after God had created Adam, God said, "it is not good that man should be alone, I will make a helper fit for him". Or, in other words, God saw that Adam needed a helper to be a more complete person. (Genesis 2:18). The notion that the bearing of children is the only God-given purpose for marital relations is wrong. The Bible stresses the true purpose; that God made man and woman to complete one another and to fulfill each other's needs. The following reading from the New Testament, I Corinthians 7:2-5, summarizes these teachings. ... ...

Strengthening Your Marriage before it fails! Why do marriages fail? There are perhaps many answers, but one reason stands out as a major cause of marital difficulties. Many couples are not even aware of this threat to the marriage relationship until they are in real difficulty. Indifference is the enemy we have in mind. Think back to the beginning of your own marriage. Your probably did almost everything together. Unfortunately, in many instances this doesn't continue, but instead, something else begins to happen. Something that is not good, but is so subtle that it is difficult to put a finger on it. Each partner becomes involved in his own work, club activities, and other worthwhile causes. You begin to spend more and more time apart. You are simply too busy to talk together and to be together. After a while you find that it doesn't even bother you to be apart so often. Complete indifference now characterizes a once vital and growing relationship. Obviously this is not what God had ... ...

48: The Bible story of the boy who ran away from home!
The Bible story of the boy who ran away from home! There is a song titled, "Where Will You Be When You Get Where You're Going?" That suggests the theme for this Bible Research message ; "You Can Go Home." It has been a real popular song among the younger generation. The theme raises a most profound and disturbing question for many. The reason is simply because they have no goal, no purpose for living and are just drifting along like the leaves carried by the wind. It reminds us of a young man Jesus spoke about in one of His parables. The story is found in Luke, chapter 15, beginning with verse 11. It reads: "A certain man had two sons: and the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his living. And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to be in want.

49: The Bible and the Wife's responsibility to the Husband
Your interest in this subject is appreciated and I am glad that we have the Bible as our source book to tell us what God expected of the wife in the marriage relationship. There are several verses in Ephesians, the fifth chapter that you should read, beginning with verse 22. Let me read only three of these for you. Verse 22, "Wives submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord". Then verse 24, "Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in everything". Then verse 33, "nevertheless let everyone of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband". Then in I Peter 3:1, "Like wise you wives, be in subjection to your own husbands". None of these passages teach that women are inferior in intellect, but that her feminine qualities preclude her being as well endowed for leadership. The subjection does not mean servitude. It is not the relationship of master and slave or as a maid or ... ...

Dear husband, Enclosed is a dossier of information that will thoroughly document the Bible's prohibition against woman preachers and pastors. I want to emphasize that the issue for your wife is not what the Bible says about this, but the very inspiration of the Bible itself. One cannot think of the unmarried Paul as a self serving, sexist, bigoted woman hater and believe in Jesus Christ. Paul wrote 1/2 of the New Testament under the direct guidance of Jesus Christ: Gal 1:11 "For I [Paul] would have you know, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not according to man. For I neither received it from man, nor was I taught it, but I received it through a revelation of Jesus Christ."
