In this post I will continue to focus on abuse by pastor Mark Driscoll previous pastor of Mars Hill Church, Seattle, Washington, USA.
Pastor Mark Driscoll has made the following comment on 1 Timothy 2:12-14
"Without blushing Paul is simply stating that when it comes to leading in the church, women are unfit because they are more gullible and easier to deceive then men. While many irate women have disagreed with this assessment throughout the years, it does appear from this that such women who fail to trust his instruction and follow his teaching are much like their mother Eve, and are well intended but ill-informed... Before you get all emotional like a woman in hearing this, please consider the content of the womens' magazines at your local grocery store that encourages liberated women in our day to..... ( the language he used here was not suitable to be repeated at this post)....and ask yourself if the it doesn't look like the Serpent is still trolling the garden and that the daughters of Eve aren't gullible in pronouncing progress, liberation and equality.
My Comment
Pastor Mark Driscoll has obviously not made a careful study of 1 Timothy 2:12-14 and, consequently, has come to an unbiblical conclusion what this text is about. He, moreover, calls women daughters of Eve, but the Scripture calls female believers sons of God as we know from Romans 8:14
"For all who are led by the Spirit are sons of God."
