Most sections or verses in the bible are the writers personal opinion and not God's.

Best Answer: If you read 1 Cor 14 in it context, Paul begins in Chapter 11 and goes through chapter 14 dealing with issues that the church was having with how their religious services were being conducted.

In chapter 11 he deals with people who were abusing the fellowship meal that often preceded such services, by hogging all the food and even getting drunk.

In chapter 12 he deals with infighting over church positions and ministries, each group claiming that their calling was higher then the others.

In chapter 14 he deals with issues where people were interrupting the services wanting to give "special revelations" that they had received, or give their messages in languages that people could not understand.

One of the issues was that there were several women who appeared to be interrupting the services wanting ask questions. Paul tells them wait, and ask their husbands their questions when they get home. That way they can get the answers without having to interrupt the service.(Nothing "sexist" or degrading about that).

So I Cor 14 was addressing a local issue that the women were interrupting the services and needed to be told to stop and ask their question properly. But it also reveals a principle for all times, which is if you have a question, rather than interrupt the service, ask the question of the proper people afterwards.

if he claim that his church teaches only the new testament, then, there should be issue of tithe bcus Jesus never asked anyone to do so.

There's no were in the new testament that jesus talks about tithe rather Jesus teaches charity....

Then that means women should not give testimony too in churches na.

Confused xtians.

Christianity is evolving just like everything else.
We have gay pastors now and people will see as normal thing in the next 50-100 years.
People will be defending them just like they are doing for women talking in church.

first u need to understand the definition of christainity...

which is followers of Christ

most of the practice in the Bible were cultural practice of the Jews most especially in the old testament.

in a nut shell if you are doing anything that Jesus Christ didn't say in the new testament

my brother u ain't a Christian

no prejudice

Exactly, you just reflected my mind. Christianity is about the new testament, NOT the old testament; i am not saying the old is entirely useless though but more emphasy should be placed on the new testament.

that's a Jewish law

if u read on the Jews u will get a clearer view on the Bible

sadly wat we practice here is Judaism not christainity

Rubbish.

you saying God's word has been corrupted by men, yet, some people still refer to it as holy book ....

so whats holy about it in the first place

Not a Jewish law! Kindly note that Paul addressed the Christians and not Jews. Jews refused to accept christ as the expected Messiah. Paul and the early Christians teaches the laws from christ.
A lot of Churches today don't implement what Christianity demand.

A CHURCH is a body of Christ. Any worship place that fails to practice christ teaching is a TEMPLE or a WORSHIP CENTRE.

Another passage also

1 Timothy 2:12

Don't also forget we have we have women prophetesses in the bible

Salute Andronicus and Junia, my kinsmen, and my fellow prisoners, who are of note among the apostles, who also were in Christ before me.

— Romans 16:7 KJV

Junia is a female Apostle

does that mean Judaism is the right religion?

OP thanks for the reminder. That means i won't be putting offering again, my husband will do that, if there is an event the men should cook and decorate the church, i won't be preaching again, when i feel like doing so, i'll tell my man, honey its now ur job, finally i won't be praying in church again, especially all those head shaking prayers, neither will i shout fire when the pastor says to do so nor will i say fall and die. Women we've gone scotfree from these troubles.
Btw, those two women, where are their scarfs?

saintmark88:


Show me where Paul says it applies only to the Jews...the pple he addressed aren't they christains??

was their anything like Christains during the time of Paul?

If a woman preaches and people are saved. Is it not better for her to keep preaching God's word@OP?

May the spirit of understanding fall on you all. Amen.

now my question is this, did Jesus tell anyone that he was forming a new religion? Was Jesus not a Jew, didn't Jesus practics Judiasm?

Saintinoo:

The name Christians was used later, to distinguish the believers from others. But it doesn't mean that it wasn't them, a suitable name wasn't found yet to categorize them.

pls mod help us to bring nairaland pastors here

we are coming after service..

lonikit:
1 Corinthians 14:34
Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law.

Christians and their hatred of women is only second to the
insecure arab men.
All middle-eastern religious laws are about subjugating women
and reducing them to nonentities.

he came to fulfill the words of the prophets...

Isaiah preached the coming of our about a many many years before he was born​

the coming of Jesus just tells us God always keep to his words...

if Jesus Christ didn't abolish Jewish laws he won't have been killed...

so he actually came to change the law of the jews

Jesus didn't come to abolish any law, but to perect them, read ur Bible well

Saintinoo:

Jesus Christ only came to show us the way the truth and life.

which is technically a new religion...

if he had said he came to form a new religion , he won't have lasted sef

Confusions all the ways. Islam is only the way.
Is Jesus a Christian? Did he knows about bible? He's not a confusionist. A prophet of God. Jesus God your God.
Very Simple

torres89:

yes
we preach a modified version of the old testament
we don't involve our selves in most of the practices in the old testament
and we preach all our gospels​ from the new testament

modified by who, Romans? British?

Fallacy!

Jesus clearer said: I have come to fulfill the law, and not to abolish it. This he said when he was asked if it was right for a man to divorce his wife and marry another according to Moses law.
However, In Jesus Christ we find the fulfillment of God's promise through the prophets.

You don't read the Bible in piece, it's wholesome. Read more and you'll be enlightened.. The Bible is Nonconfusing ...

Question...
Why is so much divisions in the body of Christ these days?
Why did the Nigerian constitution not recognized Christianity?

Saintinoo:

when do you think christainity began?1960?,christainity officially started on the Pentecost day and those who received the Holy Spirit were referred to as the first Christians,St. Paul converted from Judaism to christainity, that's why his name was changed from Saul to Paul

Paul's opinnion not God's commandment though paul's opinnion can be respected yet God is not gender biased.if deborah had kept silent when the men ought to fight and ran back did u think israel will have victory?
