I was saddened to hear how they are continuing to become more militant as the time goes by.  It is now claimed that those who do not accept a patriarchal view are guilty of dismissing the gospel.  This is one of the main reasons why this blog exists &#8211; to show that those who accept an egalitarian view regarding women who use their God-given gifts for the entire body of Christ, can view the Bible as God&#8217;s inspired word and God breathed.  It is imperative that we give a basis for our belief in a reasonable and respectful way.  The body of Christ is hurt when those who hold to a restrictive view of women use this non-essential issue as a way to build barriers and even &#8220;rip apart&#8221; other sheep, doing much damage to the very ones whom Jesus commanded them to love.  Christians on both sides of this debate should remember that we are brothers and sisters in Christ. <span><\/span>Yes, it is essential to expose error, but godly Christians should be able to interact and dialog in a loving way without attacking one another by making this non-essential issue into an essential doctrine by accusing the other side of denying the gospel.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">Keep watch for my new article.  I plan to include audio clips so you can hear the material for yourself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are mostly moved into our new home and much of our time has been spent in unpacking boxes.
