You're scrambling my brains.No! And that's all I'll say because this is the "conservative" forum section and I don't want to step on toes ... especially if I, or the sources of MY position, are readily misunderstood and dismissed.
But, have a blessed Sunday, Clare!
Are you or your sources thinking, in light of the creation-order principles in which Paul grounds his instructions:
1) submit to your husbands as to the Lord, for
2) the husband is head of the wife as Christ is head of the church, his body,
3) as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything,
that these Christian principles apply only to the Ephesian women and are not principles for all Christian women?
Are you or your sources thinking the offensive Greek culture
negates NT apostolic teaching to Ephesian wives' regarding submission to their husbands, or that
it excludes other Christian wives from those principles in which Paul's instructions are grounded, or that
this teaching based on these Christian principles is not to be taken at its clear word, but is to be adapted to agree more with our times?
If so, that is setting one's opinion above NT principles which, by the nature of "principle," apply to all Christians.
Can you unscramble my brains for me, here?
