What about head covering? 1 Corinthians 11 Aug 13, 2023

Show notes

Points in the Jewish oral law is refuted by Paul in this passage. Neither men nor women should cover their heads is the upshot of Paul's teaching. Jesus corrected wrong ideas in The Sermon on the Mount. Paul is similarly doing so here. Go deeper with the book, Because of Eden which is Book 4 in The Eden Book Series. The Tru316 Foundation (www.Tru316.com) is the home of The Eden Podcast with Bruce C. E. Fleming where we “true” the verse of Genesis 3:16. The Tru316 Message is that “God didn’t curse Eve (or Adam) or limit woman in any way.” Once Genesis 3:16 is made clear the other passages on women and men become clear too. You are encouraged to access the episodes of Seasons 1-11 of The Eden Podcast for teaching on the seven key passages on women and men. Are you a reader? We invite you to get from Amazon the four books by Bruce C. E. Fleming in The Eden Book Series (Tru316.com/trubooks). Would you like to support the work of the Tru316 Foundation?

Who was Timothy correcting? Some men and some women. Jul 30, 2023

Show notes

Why so much turning in circles? Why so much confusion and disputing on what Paul wrote to Timothy? I believe it is because people have missed Paul's three-part passage in 1 Timothy 1:18-3:16. THIS IS IMPORTANT. It helps make clear that in 1 Timothy 2:11-12 Paul refers the subgroup of wayward women overseers in Ephesus.

"In every place" in 1 Timothy 2:8 is the start of Section 3 where Paul first refers to the wayward overseers who were disrupting the church. We go deeper on this in our zoom Workshops. We offer Fast Class Workshops in our Tru School. Normally priced at $69 for each Workshop, we offer the first one for the special amount of $3.16!

How to Handle Wayward Church Leaders. 1 Timothy 1-3 Jul 23, 2023

Show notes

When you study 1 Timothy do you take into account Paul's Three Sins?
Do you keep in mind the reason Paul left Timothy behind in Ephesus?
Have you noticed how God judges people differently based on whether they are first degree or second degree sinners?

Focusing on these key items unlocks the tangled web of competing and confusing interpretations of 1 Timothy!

Women and men who were wayward leaders are identified and corrected by Paul in 1 Timothy 1-3. Jesus, the faithful Word, could restore these former church pastors, Paul says!

But many people are teaching that women should NEVER be pastors. Are they right? No, they have misread the passage!

Genesis 3:16 Deep Dive Part 2 Jun 11, 2023

Show notes

Dr. Joy Fleming reveals the following in her deep analysis of the passage.

Domination by the woman of their attacker strikes the reader in Hebrew as an appropriate response to the attack in Genesis 3:15. God established this domination by the woman saying "I will put."

But domination of the woman by her partner jangles the reader by the tension in the syntax of 3:16c and 3:16d and is wildly out of place. God does not establish any domination of the woman by the man. God does not say "I will put" the man over you. If anything the woman is warned by God's observation that the man will rule over her.
