       God gives us authority and power, the power of God unto
       salvation. It comes from doing what is good in the sight of God
       and doing what is right; standing up and speaking out against
       evil and wrongdoing. The phrase "In like manner" only means to
       do likewise what he just told the men. To live a quiet, peaceful
       honest life with godliness.
       [/quote]exactly....so why would we then change the meaning to
       being silent in church when the teaching is the same for the men
       as it is for the woman...to be quiet and peaceful?  Context,
       context, context.
       [/quote]I just heard in the last 8 to 10 months that many Bible
       scholars truly believe that Paul did NOT write 2 Timothy. Claims
       are that those writings and church instructions were written
       some 200 years later. To be honest, the Holy Spirit guides me
       every time I read scripture and I graze over some things that
       don't feel right or seem right for the current age we live in.
       We can't place every word of scripture into modern times and
       social instruction.

       [shadow=blue,left]PJ.. You said: " We can't place every word of
       scripture into modern times and social instruction..
       The Bible was not written to adapt itself to modern times or
       used for modern social instruction. Those words in 1 Tim 2:9-15
       were for the Church at Ephesus and still apply today in our
       modern society churches as they were then. Yet, many modern
       churches throw them out in favor of modern worldviews.
       2 Tim was written when Paul was in prison for the 2nd time in
       Rome. This was around 65AD. When you read it, you find that Paul
       is asking Timothy to come a visit him in the prison. While it
       may have taken until the turn of the century to become well
       known, it indeed was written in the middle 60s AD.
       2 Tim 3:16.."All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and
       is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for
       instruction in righteousness:"
       Could it be this verse that prompts those who want to remove God
       from society and discredit the Bible by discrediting Paul's
       Epistles  or  Could it be the verses below?
       2 Tim 3:2-5.."For men shall be lovers of their own selves,
       covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents,
       unthankful, unholy, V3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers,
       false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are
       good, V4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more
       than lovers of God; V5 Having a form of godliness, but denying
       the power thereof: from such turn away."
       If anything, God's WORD in 1st and 2nd Timothy hit a bullseye on
       today's modern society. God already knew what was going to
       happen and He put it in prophecy and words so that we could read
       it and make a decision.
       One must be very careful when deciding to reject God's Word,
       each subsequent verse, chapter, book(s) gets easier until His
       words mean nothing.

       or NOT!

       Does "Less" mean lesson? If this is the case, (we) are trying as
       much as I have tried with you and 1 Tim 2:9-15. Do they
       listen,,, NO!  Did you listen, I hope so?
       Lori, we are all GOD's children and in the end, it is His rules.
       Since He has not rewritten the Bible and certified that it was
       from Him, we are stuck with the old rules if we are to follow
       the road to righteousness in GOD's eye.
       I  will suggest a different version of the Bible. One that has
       the proven Word of God within its pages. (KJV, 1611). It will
       only make it easier to follow as it has none of the modern day
       translations that tend to let people down the road to apostasy.
       I do hope you have a great evening. Is pretty but cold here

       Yes it was a typo it should be lesson....Now, if you pay
       attention to the interpretation you are putting forth, you are
       reacting to the feminism of today.  In fact, I have heard many
       teachers on this passage that teach it exactly as that, as  a
       reaction against feminism of today.  To do that removes the
       meaning the passage had to the people of the day....the people
       of the day were NOT trying to destroy men or take authority,
       etc. they were not about all the things the feminists of today
       are fighting for, like abortion and superiority over men.  In
       fact, in that day woman wanted children for it was kind of like
       a status symbol (sort of)
       So what you are advocating is that we take modern culture and
       force it to fit scripture rather than to allow scripture to
       inform our culture.  I have a huge problem with that.  Today's
       women (as a society voice not as individuals) are out of
       control...amen...many of them are trying to usurp authority over
       men...amen...but that is not to say that all woman are nor is it
       to say that his teaching is only for the brick and mortar
       church....in fact, if we look at our society today as to how we
       should interpret the passage we would say that it extends to all
       areas of life, but especially in the world rather than limiting
       the teaching to the church.
       So again, I ask if anyone is willing to study what it really
       does teach us rather than simply using it to react to something
       we don't like?
       We are starting to warm up here, in fact, I was able to sit on
       the porch two days in the last couple of weeks, should be able
       to today as well...then two days of rain...then Sun. they are
       predicting 70 degrees.  Have a great day.

       a status symbol (sort of)
       So what you are advocating is that we take modern culture and
       force it to fit scripture rather than to allow scripture to
       inform our culture.  I have a huge problem with that.  Today's
       women (as a society voice not as individuals) are out of
       control...amen...many of them are trying to usurp authority over
       men...amen...but that is not to say that all woman are nor is it
       to say that his teaching is only for the brick and mortar
       church....in fact, if we look at our society today as to how we
       should interpret the passage we would say that it extends to all
       areas of life, but especially in the world rather than limiting
       the teaching to the church.
       So again, I ask if anyone is willing to study what it really
       does teach us rather than simply using it to react to something
       we don't like?
       We are starting to warm up here, in fact, I was able to sit on
       the porch two days in the last couple of weeks, should be able
       to today as well...then two days of rain...then Sun. they are

       Lori, there is a lot of difference in the "open Theology" you
       are touting and the Literal, Historical, Grammatical Theology, I
       have been trying to get you to see.
       The following is the words of Pinnock, "Systemic Theology, in
       the Openness of GOD..p103
       "Two models of God in particular are the most influential that
       people commonly carry around in their minds. We may think of God
       primarily as an aloof monarch, removed from the contingencies of
       the world, unchangeable in every aspect of being, as an all
       determining and irresistible power, aware of everything that
       will ever happen and never taking risks. Or we may understand
       God as a caring parent with qualities of love and
       responsiveness, generosity and sensitivity, openness and
       vulnerability, a person (rather than a metaphysical principle)
       who experiences the world, responds to what happens, relates to
       us and interacts dynamically with humans. . . . God is sovereign
       in both models, but the mode of his sovereignty differs. . . .
       In this book we are advancing the second, or the open, view of
       God."
       He then writes:"“What we are really doing is conducting a

       picture of God is not interested in such a competition. He only

       He said it I did not... Do you  want a true picture of GOD? If
       NOT, then there are many books, videos, forums that have an
       "Open Theology". The NIV version you already use is perfect for
       this type of theology..?
       If Yes, then you need to accept the WORD of GOD as written
       historically, grammatically and literally. I would suggest the
       KJV for this type of hermenutics.
       God or His Word has not change since the beginning, but man's

       Bladerunner...if studying scripture and allowing God to
       interpret it for us is OPEN THEISM...what theology do you hold
       to and why do you think it is superior over allowing God to
       interpret it for us?

       [shadow=blue,left]Not sure what you are talking about?
       Allowing GOD to interpret it for us?
       In your words, how does he do that?
       Example, I read His WORD as Literal taking into account the
       Historical and Grammatical context.
       Do you mean, You read something and it pops up in your head as
       to what it means?

       Here is a short video of a better explanation of Open Theism.
       There are many and please do explore what they have to say. It
       does affect you.
