375: Lesson 9: Role Of Women In The Church
Master index of 23 studies: "Determine if you worship in Spirit and Truth!" Click to View Lesson 9 Role Of Women In The Church The Bible speaks of how women are to conduct themselves in worship. In 1 Corinthians 14:34-36 we read, "Let your women keep silent in the churches, for they are not permitted to speak; but they are to be submissive, as the law also says. And if they want to learn something, let them ask their own husbands at home; for it is shameful for women to speak in church, for Adam was formed first, then Eve." This command of God is not hard to understand. But some want to ignore it and do what seems right in their own eyes. The Bible explains why women are to keep silent and why they are not permitted to speak in church. It was because "Adam was formed first, then Eve." This is the way God has specified that it will be. God speaking to Eve in Genesis 3:16 says, "Unto the woman He said...your desire shall be to your husband, and he shall rule over you." The reason women ... ...

376: Does Daniel 7:25 prove Sabbath keepers are the mark of the beast ...
Problem is, the universal record of history and the New Testament proves that Christians never kept the Sabbath after the resurrection of Christ. We know Christians have always worshipped on Sunday and Sabbath keeping among Christians really didn't take hold until about 150 years ago (1800's). Therefore Sabbath keepers are the one's who have changed God's law of on the day of worship, after 1750 years of worshipping on Sunday. They may be what Dan 7:25 was talking about. B. What Dan 7:25 is really prophesying: The book of Daniel has several figures and ... The Romans introduced Emperor worship (changing laws) where Christians were killed if they did not say Caesar was God. Conclusion: So too bad the for all the Sabbatarians who get all excited over Daniel and Revelation as proof that Rome change the day of Worship for Christians. We know this cannot be the correct interpretation, because Christians always worshipped on Sunday and never on the Sabbath until that last 100 or so years. Click ... ...

383: Lesson 17: Singing In Worship (Part 2)
There are two different kinds of music: vocal and instrumental. God has spoken in the New Testament concerning the kind of music we must use if we expect to worship Him in spirit and in truth, and that is singing. Singing is the limit of God's command. God nowhere in the New Testament authorized mechanical instruments of music to be used in worship of the church. A mechanical instrument of music cannot worship God. Only with our voices can we sing praises to God. God does not wish to be worshipped with a lifeless instrument. People today may think ... According to Webster, presumptuous means, "to take upon oneself without permission or authority, taking too much for granted, showing overconfidence, arrogance." Being presumptuous as far as God is concerned is a sin. Psalms 19:13 says, "Keep back your servant from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me. Then I shall be blameless, and I shall be innocent of great transgression." So we see we can also be guilty of ... ...
