    Baptists (and others)-- Wives submit to husbands? Wives and husbands equal partners?

    It’s only one will (not three same wills), which starts in the Father, goes through the Son and realizes in the Holy Spirit.

    Baptists (and others)-- Wives submit to husbands? Wives and husbands equal partners?

    Yes, there is no subordination in Trinity like subordination among people. This is truly heresy. However, there is a “logical” subordination: that the will and actions of God come from the Father through the Son in the Holy Spirit. Theologians call this the doctrine of the monarchy of the...

    Baptists (and others)-- Wives submit to husbands? Wives and husbands equal partners?

    Women are not inferior in rights, but have different rights and responsibilities. What is possible for a woman is impossible for a man, and vice versa. God created Eve for Adam (!) from his rib to show that woman is not a slave (since she was not created from Adam's heels) and is not a master...

    Baptists (and others)-- Wives submit to husbands? Wives and husbands equal partners?

    Women are absolutely equal to men in human nature and dignity. Therefore, they are not slaves, because a slave is one who is inferior in dignity. However, due to their natural role, they must be subordinate to men. Subordination is not slavery, just as being subordinate to your parents, your...

    Baptists (and others)-- Wives submit to husbands? Wives and husbands equal partners?

    Women seem to be dissatisfied and opposed to the dominance of men, saying to themselves: «Why are men installed over us as leaders, and we must be executors of their orders?» And since they cannot openly resist, knowing that this is done according to the divine order, they begin to silently...

    Unfortunately, having already rejected the Tradition of the Church, Protestants now reject the absolute authority of Holy Scripture... It’s sad to see this

    Then this is a question for the woman, why does she choose the man for marriage, knowing that he will demand from her what she does not want to do or cannot do. She can choose for herself someone who suits her life or not get married at all.

    Likewise, a good Christian man cannot order a woman to do something that does not comply with the Law of God. Otherwise, his words will no longer correspond to the divine command, and therefore should not be fulfilled. So, I don’t see any abuse here. Don't priests in the Anglican Church take a...

    Baptists (and others)-- Wives submit to husbands? Wives and husbands equal partners?

    Women must submit in everything, when «everything» is not contrary to the Law of God. Why do you think that submission and control are abusive and can not be connected with Christian love? If you report to your bishop and you are his subordinate, does that mean that your bishop is abusing you?

    Baptists (and others)-- Wives submit to husbands? Wives and husbands equal partners?

    And do you think that Jesus is not absolute ruler of every household and the world in general? As far as I know, anglicans believe in monergism (that every person can start believing only by will of God, without his own desire). So, how can you say that Christ is not absolute ruler of the Church?

    women as priests

    If God had wanted to call women for priesthood, He would have done so, in the same way as He called women to be prophetesses. The Church is a collection of the members of our Lord Jesus Christ. Every member performs a certain duty. We cannot say that all members are the same.

    women as priests

    Women may be full of love and emotion, and if they devote their love and emotion to Christ they can be very helpful. But in spite of this we cannot find in the whole Bible one single example of a woman being a priest. Perhaps God called women for other responsibilities. Priesthood is a Divine...

    Schism and Photius

    This is not a complaint. My point is that it is incorrect to cite someone’s magisterium as an authority in an interdenominational dialogue. Objective facts or general authorities must be cited. And you said that Leo is not a Nestorian, because your Roman Church magisterium said so. For Oriental...
