Now you're twisting what you initially said, which was, "First, this verse is blatantly misogynistic." You never said that it is only so when taken out of context. Your claim was clearly that the verse itself is the issue. This is further proven by your (erroneous) conclusion about the meaning of the verse: '"saved in childbearing" is mostly likely a punitive measure taken upon certain women with disruptive behaviors.' It is your view that sees this verse as misogynistic; that God inspired misogyny.
I twisted nothing, you're being triggered by the word "misogyny" and you're attributing it to God. I didn't post this thread against you personally, neither did I call God misogynistic, you are reading your own prejudie into it by taking it out of context, which I pointed out.
Further to this, you said "Children might be a blessing for men, but childbearing is a CURSE for women who are being exploited as vehicles to carry out men's legacy." That is such a perverse view of what God created as good, as the very means of procreation.
It is your oppresive, backward, patriarchical view that sees women as mere "means of procreation".
When God said "Be fruitful and multiply," he specifically meant through the only means possible--his gift of sex, leading to childbearing, the role which women alone were created to fulfil.
"Fruitful" refers to spiritual fruits (Gal. 5:22-23), "multiply" refers to the great commission (Matt. 28:19-20). You have no understanding of God's word.
Of course. It can also be used to justify one's own unbiblical views of things like marriage, sex, and childbearing, instead of seeing them as good gifts from God as the Bible teaches.
Sex is primitive biological instinct, all animals have it, nowhere in the bible specifically calls it a "gift", the real gift is the Holy Spirit, the ultimate fulfillment of "be fruitful and multiply" is the completion of God's church. Prioritizing marriage, sex, and childbearing is prosperity gospel, according to Paul, anyone who preaches a gospel other than his is from the devil.
No they're not. Prove to me the double standard that (salvation) by grace through faith in Christ is only for men, while women are saved in childbearing instead of or in addition to the blood of Christ. If you can't, your interpretations are erroneous.
No, they don't. But, you're clearly not willing to understand anything besides what you already believe, so you'll never see it.
You don't seem to have any intention to engage in a meaningful conversation, and I have no intention to argue with you again and deal with your unbiblical, misogynistic view. If you meant for trouble, please go away in peace, agitation is not appreciated.
