Produktbeschreibung
Women may not be ordained as leaders in the church and they should be adorned modestly because it is against the will of God given as inspiration to the author of I Timothy 2:8-15. God inspires a woman to lead a church and minister to the needs of a specific people, fulfilling his own promise from Joel 2:28-32 and also doing good works. Both claims are regarded as true even though they are conflicting. Can both be right or does one have to be wrong so that the other can be the right one? Should interpretations of texts be taken out of their contexts? Is revelation progressive? Can methods, structures and practices be adapted to fit distinct situations? If women should not stand before God as ministers, are they also exempt from the judgment that will happen before him? These questions and many more are wrestled with in this thesis and plausible solutions were also offered.
