My comment is that it is true, women rule over them, I am a woman, women bring chaos, they should not rule, even in the workplace, they cause chaos, I will not work under a woman, they bring chaos. The bible is right, it's true, I will turn down a job if a woman is leading, and many times if I'm working beside her chaos.

We must follow the word of God or we will fall for any false doctrine.

Are we seeing this today? Definitely! Children are given too much rights with compliment from legislators, wrong parenting, do gooders, educational mis-teaching etc etc.
Women are no better if they walked all over people. It is quite sad to see that happening today! Only the return of our Messiah will solve that.

Failure to preach or teach this particular verse,from God's word,has created assemblies that can't distinguish between normal and judgment.
