A Little Less Talk, A Little More Conversation

If you have never read Corinthians, I’m going to ask you not to read this post. It will inform you of sin of which you may be ignorant. In this instance the Bible actually says let them be ignorant. 1 Cor. 14:38

The Bible in 1 Peter 3:1 KJV says, Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives;

Now at the church I attend, two of the most outspoken women have husbands that do not attend church with them. If they followed the word of God, if they followed Corinthians maybe their spouses would be saved. What does Corinthians say, 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 KJV says, 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. [35] And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.

It isn’t just something written to the Corinthians 2000 years ago. It is one of the clearest New Testament commandments, and if you followed it, maybe you would save yourself and your spouse through your conversation.

Authority

I usually enjoy watching the 700 Club for the Q&A, generally to see if I agree or disagree.

Someone asked about 1 Corinthians 14:34-35. Pat Robertson erroneously said it was only a tradition of Jews at the time. What does 1 Corinthians 14:37 say. I hear the commandment. Why don’t you?

No man not even Pat Robertson has authority to change or overrule a commandment of God. Yet foolish preachers do it all the time. Foolish women respond to those preachers shaming themselves in the house of the Lord.

A Proverbs woman might be nice, but where is the New Testament woman who hears a command from our Lord?
