Looks like God's Word had the final say on that...

No, They just get tired of trying to reason with you....

Apparently, they think 1 Timothy 2:9-13, Titus 2:3-5, and 1 Timothy 3:1-5 are lies... I did not write these versus, or any other versus in God's Word. I just choose to believe God meant what He said and said what He meant.

Those that believe women can be pastors and can teach / usurp authority over men in the church would have to ignore these scriptures and consider them to be lies.

That's one of the signs of the end times, that many would be denying (contradict) the Lord that bought them (2 Peter 2:1)... many today contradict the teachings of the Word of God and this is an example of such contradiction where God says one thing in His Word, and people decide to do something other than what God says.

That's not going to work out well for those who do this. Some will have to learn the hard way which is too bad since God provided all the answers in His Book. Too bad indeed.

The KJV translates Strongs G831 in the following manner: usurp authority over (1x).

To usurp authority is to take what has not been given...If I usurp your authority I have done essentially what Absalom did to David...it is an act similar to treason.

And, that is what happens when women lead churches... they do so without the authorization of the Lord because He has decided that men will be ministers, not women. Women should teach other women.

This all explains the feminization of the Body of Christ which has brought forth much teaching error. Women seem to have a tendency to be able to be deceived, while men seem to have a tendency to know the truth and still do wrong anyway.

Kinda like the deal with Adam and Eve... Eve was deceived, but Adam was not and yet he followed Eve into sin with his eyes wide open.

At least Eve had an excuse... Adam is actually the one responsible for sin, which the ladies enjoy hearing since in times past many blamed Eve.
