Biblical Eldership Church Leadership

Male Leadership

Testament correctly only when we allow the Scriptures on male-fe male equality as well as on male-female role differences to speak with full authority. The Bible is not ambiguous about this critically important doctrine. In the most straightforward, clear manner, the Bible repeatedly states that male-female role differences exist in relationship to headship and submission. Not only do the apostles Paul and Peter expressly state the headship-submission doctrine, they argue cogently and passion ately for it and support the universal application of their teaching from theology and original creation. In the final analysis, Christ’s choice of a male apostolate serves as the basis for their teaching.
