Listen "And Women? | Part 2 | Austin Hix"
Episode Synopsis
"Are these Scriptures for all people for all time?" - Pastor Austin Hix.
Paul wrote the books of Romans, Corinthians and Timothy. These books he included writing about women. In Corinthians and Timothy he wrote narrow instructions about dress code, leadership roles, virtue and conduct for women. In Romans he wrote about 3 women in leadership roles in the early Church. Why the contrast? Is it contrast?
In Corinthians and Timothy, Paul is addressing cultural issues that if The Church began to follow would hinder The Gospel. He instructs The Church proactively to live counter culture.
God does everything decently and in order and Paul instructs The Church to follow that example, not the example of society.
Paul does not instruct that women cannot lead, he is instructing women to refrain from teaching until they have learned. To dress modestly to present honor, so as not to suggest or imply a lack of virtue. To honor authority and keep order during Church, is to refrain from asking questions during the service. When Scripture is viewed in context it can unlock the mystery and give understanding to the application of it, then and now.
