Now when you are sitting around the table and sharing are the women allowed to speak or ask questions?
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.
Pretty simple.
so what;s the point then?.... ???..... i mean... for us women ... or more specifically single women..... when it comes to choosing between a large congregational church with one pastor speaking from a pulpit... as opposed to a home based, sit around a table church, where everybody.... (or as it now appears.. ...only all the men)... talk and give testimony as they see fit?............ if my only option.. as a female... is to sit there quietly and listen, either way.. then personally i would rather listen to just one man speak speak from a pulpit.. rather than have to endure the possible back and forth banter of a whole bunch of them arguing at a table........ :........... especially if some of the male proponents of such kitchen table churches here are any example of what i could expect to have to listen to..........
so... i guess you could say i learned from this fff not to worry about it.... and that i was doing it right in the first place........ 8)
The reason the 'male proponents of this everybody has a song, word, magic trick or a yodel' comes from some who couldn't get anyone to listen to them any other way.
'Listening' to them here, I can understand why, can't you?
