He must manage his own family well and see that his children obey him with proper respect
Husband love your wives and do not be harsh with them
In the same way,their wives are to be woman worthy of respect,not malious talkers but temparate and trustworthy in everthing
Men and woman in the family
Some christians think that the bible is the word of God and is always right.so they would say that husbands are more important than wives.Bieing a mother is as important as a husband.
Some christians think that the bible was written a long time ago and so we should be allowed to make it modern...so they would say that husbands and wives are equal(just like in society)
Catholic
- what works for your family is right
- Any woman who chooses to make her career bieing a mother deserves equal respect
The roles of woman and men in the church
"should men and woman have the same role doing christain stuff in the church"
Yes,because men adn woman are equal so they should have the right to do both men or woman roles in the church,woman was made to help men.
No,because people believe that a woman cant do a mans job.woman and men have a different nature and charaistic.Jeus had male diciplese in the bible we only have men doing that job.
In The bible woman were in charge of the church first.
What the bible says; MEN AND WOMAN ARE DIFFERENT
Woman should remain silent in the churches.If they want to ask about something.they should ask their husbands at home
I do not allow a woman to teach man
Its not good for a man to be alone.I will make a helper to suit him.
Jesus' Diciples were all male
What the bible says:MEN AND WOMAN ARE THE SAME
The bible sows us that woman in charge of the first churches
Mary was the first to know about Jesus' resscurection,this tells us that woman are accually important.
