Man is the head of the woman

46 duties to give the reasons. Now I had learned these things soon after I had become a Christian and was use to establishing every point of belief from scripture alone and this was what surprised me, why did these men not do so ?

Blindness No Excuse To Ignore Scripture

We see no reason why women should not be made elders is a quotation of the Elders at “Jesus is Lord Church” Warsash !

These are the scriptural reasons why women should not be made elders or rule over men .

Man is the head of the woman

1 Cor 11

But I would have you to know the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the women is the man and the head of Christ is God.

Every man praying of prophesying, having his head covered, dishonoureth his head.

But every women that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head; for that is even all one as if she were shaven.

For if a women be not covered , let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a women to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.

For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, for as much as he is in the image and glory of God, but the women is the glory of the man.

For the man is not of the women ; but the women of the man.

Neither was the man created for the women but the women for the man.

For this cause ought the women to have power on her head because of the angels.

Never the less neither is the man without the women , neither the women without the man in the Lord.

For as the woman is of the man , even so is the man also by the women; but all things are of God.

Judge in your selves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered.

Doth not even nature itself teach you , that if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him ?

But if a woman have long hair it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering

If any man seem to be contentious , we have no such custom neither in the churches of God. (Either there were more than one church at Corinth or Paul means all the churches throughout the world)
