Woman’s role According to Scripture

Today, women are being encouraged to break with tradition and claim roles of authority and power which other have never sought. This is also true in Christian circles were women are invited to question and even disregard the teaching of God's Word as "cultural" and temporary.

Woman's Role According To Scripture carefully reminds the reader that the Bible was written for all time, and that those things which were set down for our example are still important today. The Christian woman is reminded that blessing will follow those who live according to the whole counsel of God.

The God-given role of the New Testament woman is carefully discussed by considering those verses which relate to the familiy, the Church and society as a whole. While considering the many examples provided in Scripture, we see that the Christian woman has already attained her true role through Christ's atoning work on the cross so that she now can live in a manner that pleases Him.
