So to Drag it back on track:

Hebrews 7:26 “For it was fitting for us to have such a high priest, holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners and exalted above the heavens”
Greek: “Toioutos gar hemin kai eprepen (3SIAI) archiereus, osios, akakos, amiantos, kechorismenos (RPPMSN) apo ton hamartolon, kai hupseloteros ton ouranon genomenos; (AMPMSN”

**Yup, That seems to be correct. So what? Do we have a problem with that? I can’t see how? **

1Timothy 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; **
[/sign]
That also is true! We always go through Jesus to get to God. Always! Why we even ask the Angels and Saints to do that for us too!
Now I wouldn’t want to call anyone hypocrites, I am sure you all comply with the rest of Timothy don’t you? Or do you just ignore it? Perhaps like the CC you understand that this was written to a different people at a different time in History?

**********2:6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time. ********
********2:7 Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I speak the truth in Christ, and lie not a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity. 2:8 I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting. **********
******2:9 In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with braided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; **********
****2:10 But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works. ******
****2:11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. ******
**2:12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. ****
**2:13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve. **
**2:14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. **
2:15 Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety
[/sign]
******Sure 1 Tim 2:5 was true, In fact it is still ******
true! It was correct then and will always be correct for those people.
**But ,how does it apply to us today, if at all? ****If you think it does, then don’t be hypocritical. Sure, 1Tim 2: 9: and 1Tim2:11-12 might make a lot of your female membership angry. But remember you can just tell them to shut up! **
At your next service you should have people appointed to remove the gold, or pearls, or costly array from the woman!
Also, remember that they must learn in silence with all subjection. Good luck with that one! Make sure not one woman attempts to teach, nor to usurp authority over any men, but to be silence. It is good thing your denominations permit divorce if you want to enforce these antique writings.
**Remember what Saint Augustine said: “If you believe what you like in the gospels, and reject what you don’t like, it is not the gospel you believe, but yourself.” **
Lucky for the real church we follow the living church of Christ. He is our head, we are the body of Christ, we don’t worship parts of a book that we like and become our own gods! We follow the Church lead by Jesus the Christ!
OK your turn to comment. Remember The OP!

:frighten:
shaw: Now am worried that bro Real becoming Protestor against Women. Mary is the Intercessor, the Guide to her Son. And my Mom had a verified Marian Medical miracle Cure, Which our CC teaches can Only be done by God.
Like, The Rosary is Direct living the Gospel Narration of Her Son, Our Lord.
And Father Corapi explaimned why Women can’t be Priests. Our Lord judged women Too ideal to be Priests. He left that job to us messing thimngs up Men. Luckiluy we have higher Church Authority (Bishops) to keep them straight.
Can I borrow a Greek Dictionary, bro Real, to check the accuracy of your quote? ( Just j/k)
