Misogynist ZOT! The Gospel Was Preached to the Whole World

Posted on 03/25/2009 12:30:09 PM PDT by OPREV

The Gospel was preached to all nations already, 1960 years ago.

Mat 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations;

and then shall the end come.

------------------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------------------

Tit 2:11 For the saving grace of God was manifested to All men,

Rom 16:26 made known to All nations for the obedience of faith:

Rom 1:8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the Whole world.

1Ti 3:16...God was manifested in flesh, declared righteous in spirit, seen by messengers, preached among nations, believed on in the world, taken up in glory!

1Th 1:8 For from you hath sounded forth the word of the Lord, not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but in Every place your faith to God-ward is gone forth; so that we need not to speak anything.

Act 19:10 And this continued for the space of two years; so that all they that dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord, both Jews and Greeks.

------------------------------------------------------

Tit 2:11 For the saving grace of God was manifested to All men,

This is fulfilled prophecy :)

Sorry, OPREV, but the Gospel was NOT preached in the New World, Japan, Australia, etc.

>> made known to All nations for the obedience of faith: <<

There’s a difference between God making his law known to all the world, through nature, and the Gospel being preached to the whole world.

How about this:

Yah'shua spent two days in Samaria with the Gentiles then returned to Galilee.

See John 4

A day is like a thousand years

After two thousand years Yah'shua will return for His Chosen People.

Only ones that assume to be something they aren't. (and ones that grate) Lol.

1Ti 2:12 But I permit not a woman .. to have dominion over a man, but to be in quietness.

Actually, Paul said it, not me. People seem to pick and choose the parts that suit them, and ignore the parts that don't. ;) :)

Of course, some people didn't hear the gospel last century either. What about them? Do they get a magic pass and no judgement? Why do only all of the "last" generation have to hear the gospel? Because if they didn't, the same grace afforded to those who didn't hear it in times past wouldn't apply to them?

No. That’s why Christians are obliged to spread the gospel: to spare the world from Hell.

>> Why do only all of the “last” generation have to hear the gospel? <<

The rest of your questions seem to proceed from a false presumption that those who have not heard the gospel are spared from judgment.

You mean like your omissions in your last vanity about “after the thousand years”?

Or how about your omissions on this subject where Paul tells men that they are to love their wives, like Christ loves the church, which means, of course, that they should die if it benefits their wives. The wife of a good man need not nag or have dominion over him because he fulfills his duty towards her, taking her into consideration in every decision he makes.

I have a feeling a certain OP takes this as proof that there will be no women in heaven:
...when he opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour..- Revelations 8:1

How about -

Jas 5:8 _You_ also wait patiently. Establish [or, strengthen] your* hearts, because the Arrival of the Lord has drawn near.

James told them to get their hearts ready, or prepare, because, "this was it!" The more I read this, the more it looks like the Apostles were pleading with the early church to be on their best behavior because Christ was in fact coming soon. Every statement was, don't judge, stop complaining, love each other, pray a lot. These guys were worried. Look at these statements -

1Co 1:7 So that ye come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ:

1Co 4:5 Wherefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come,

1Co 7:29 But this I say, brethren, the time is short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none;

Paul believed the time was so short he told husbands to act as if they didn't even have wives!

Php 3:20 For our citizenship exists in [the] heavens, from where also we eagerly await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ,

These people were "eagerly" waiting for, or "fully expecting" him to show up!

2Th 3:5 And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patient waiting for Christ.

1Jn 2:28 And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming.

John didn't expect these people to die and go to heaven, he thought Jesus was coming in their life time and he told them to be ready so they wouldn't be ashamed when he showed up. If you die, you would go to meet him, not the other way around. LOL. :D

Jas 5:7 Be patient therefore, brethren, until the coming of the Lord.

James didn't tell those people that Jesus would be coming many centuries later. These were Apostles. None like them have ever been here since. They had God's ear more than anyone. God would not have led them on to think that, he was coming quickly, only to have it draw out 2000 years. These people were definitely worried about the condition of their flocks at the appearance of Jesus. For them, this was it. :) There was no millenium wait for them. It was their time. And we live in ours. :)

What happens to people who never heard the gospel?

1Ti 2:12 But I permit not a woman .. to have dominion over a man, but to be in quietness.

The immediate context of that passage is behavior at that specific church - not society in general. You are neither her husband or pastor, therefor you cannot claim that authority either. You application of the term woman was in a derogatory manner, completely opposite that used by Christ. You further choose to ignore Gal 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.

And of course you would want to skip over Paul's writtings in Romans 16:1 I commend unto you Phebe our sister, which is a servant (diakonos) of the church which is at Cenchrea:
2 That ye receive her in the Lord, as becometh saints, and that ye assist her in whatsoever business she hath need of you: for she hath been a succourer(Prostatis) of many, and of myself also.

Diakonos appears in both masculine and feminine cases in the Greek, depending upon the gender of the one it modifies. In this instance, however, the rule is broken. Diakonos is masculine, even though it refers to a woman. It seems clear that Paul wants to communicate that Phoebe is more than someone who waits on tables. Paul recognizes her as full and respected minister of the Word as, for instance, Timothy or Titus, or even Paul himself.

Prostatis literally means "one who stands in front or before." It is otherwise translated "to set over, to appoint with authority, to lead, protect, govern, preside, superintend, direct, rule, stand before others, set over others." Phoebe was a benefactor because she was in a position of leadership where she could render an authoritative and effective ministry of the Word. In short, Paul commends Phoebe to the Romans because she was a minister — preacher, teacher, pastor — who was in charge (the pastor) "of the church which is at Cenchrea."

Now, if you want to continue to grossly insult a sister in Christ, you will at least know you are out of line.

Which post # was the 1000 years in? I probably made many references, lol. ;) :D

Did you want me to give a whole sermon on women? Lol! I know the verses, and most of them are 100% common sense. Guys should know this stuff anyway. Apparently Paul was dealing with some serious dolts, LOL. :D But, on the point, hey, I'm not married to anyone here. Just some chicks here think they can strut around busting guy's chops like they were guys or something. If someone wants to hit, I will hit back, and where it counts. :) You ever see gazelles eat a lion? Doesn't work that way. :) An arrogant woman is.. heck, they should just be laid out. LOL. :D Gazelles don't eat lions. It's the other way around. :) Satan has done a lot to undermine the natural order God put forth. :) Cuz Satan's a punk yo. ;) :d

If you want to continue to uphold the arrogance of the woman, be my guest. Try looking at the natural order God made. You see women in the NFL? Or boxing the heavyweight guys? NOPE. Should give an idea of how God made things. Show me a verse, any verse in the Bible where Godly women smack talked men of God. Didn't happen, and if it did, God woulda whacked 'em for it. If a girl wants to act like a man, I'll treat her like one. If she can't handle it, then she should stow it. :) Or we could always step into the boxing ring. I love boxing. Awesome sport. I wonder who would hold out? Huh, probably the girl. Yeah, the girl. :)

No, but based on some of your other posts, your English isn’t that great either. Now, back to the comment in question-
“they should just be laid out. “

“Laid out” has several connotations, which where you implying?
