Today we continue a multi-week series on one of the most hotly contested passages in the Bible: 1 Timothy 2:8-15. We will tackle the following questions:
- What are the unique temptations for men and women that Paul addressed?
-
What cultural influences was Paul trying to account for in setting expectations within the household of God?
How would you answer these objections to a plain reading of scripture?
- It was only for that time and place.
- It was only Paul’s opinion.
- Paul was not a legitimate Apostle.
