    Comments Off on The Best of Women – Daughters of Sarah
     
    Those who “obeyed” and that caused the “increase in inner beauty” as these wonderful verses describe (verses in picture).
     
    Such women are the rarest but the best even rewarded greatly & honoured in His Kingdom because they “humbled” themselves into “obedience” first as Christ’s Example of the “deacon-servant” (which is the meaning of the actual Greek Word used in verse below; yes, Christ Fulfilled ‘that level of Obedience with regards to Servanthood too’):
     
    “For I declare Christ to have become a servant (“diakonon” – NAMS) of the circumcision for the truth of God, in order to confirm the promises given to the fathers,” – apostle Paul (Romans 15:8, NASB)
     
    The exact same Greek word in all sense except gender (“diakonon”) is used in the only other occurrence in the Bible in verse below too commending a real woman believer in Christ who became such a “humble servant” too:
     
    “I commend to you our sister Phoebe, who is a servant (“diakonon” – NAFS) of the church which is at Cenchrea;” – apostle Paul (Romans 16:1, NASB)
     
    Humility never brings or puts anyone down. It actually raises them to a place of honor.
     
    P/S:
     
    A Simple Analysis: In Greek
     
    “diakonon – NAMS” (servant – Noun Accusative Masculine Singular)
     
    “diakonon – NAFS” (servant – Noun Accusative Feminine Singular)
     
    There is a ‘closely’ related word translated as “deacon” in a “leadership” sense which is a “servant leader” (a different word than the one used above though both words are related in the context of “servant only”, not leadership) and the latter is only applied to men in Holy Scripture (a distinction which is clear in Holy Scripture regarding order, which is important too as 1 Corinthians 14:40 implies as well). Example, as follows:
     
    “These men must also first be tested; then let them serve as deacons if they are beyond reproach.
     
    Women must likewise be dignified, not malicious gossips, but temperate, faithful in all things.
     
    Deacons (“diakonoi” – NNMP) must be husbands of only one wife, and good managers of their children and their own households.” (1 Timothy 3:10 – 12, NASB)
     
    Please note that the word translated as “deacon” (“diakonoi” – NNMP, e.g. verse 10 above) refers to “men only” (verse 12) & the “Women” referred to in verse 11 refers to ‘their wives’.
     
    In verse 12, the phrase “husbands of only one wife” for “deacons” (just like a similar phrase is found for Bishops in 1 Timothy 3:2) implies that these “servant – spiritual leadership” positions are for “men only”.
     
    In fact, since verse 11 mentions “their women”, it shows that these terms are “not generic” (to either man or woman as some exegesis commonly err) in ‘this context’ since gender differences are clearly mentioned in these same set of verses distinguishing it to be “gender sensitive” Commands as “it is written”.
     
    “Obedience and submission belong to the humble while disobedience and rebellion belong to the proud; choose thy way wisely” – Anonymous

    A Scriptural Warning – Lawlessness

    Let’s be careful of “lawlessness” by which ‘Satan leads the world astray’.

    Let’s stick to “what is written” in the “Bible” (Original – literal – translations being best, most accurate).

    Proved True – His Word – Disobedience gets Punishment
