S15 Ep 10Beyond Eden “High Jump” of Ephesians 5:22-6:9

Dive deep into this MAJOR PASSAGE! What about "submission" in Ephesians 5:22-24? Paul teaches reciprocating submission among Spirit-filled believers (compare 5:18b-21, and 5:33). What about "love"? Paul teaches that even mutual up-building must have LOVE as a major component. Just "as Christ" loved in 5:23b, 25b and throughout this passage, so too for the partners in the Christian marriage of 5:33. What about "head"? Paul is not not referring to authority or source. He is talking about the GREAT MYSTERY of 5:31 and 32 - the unity of believers and Christ in one joint-body.Go deeper? Read Beyond Eden, Ephesians 5:15-6:9 by Bruce C. E.

No! God Did NOT Talk to Eve about Pain in Childbirth. God talked to Eve about (1) toil in fieldwork because of the coming curse on the ground and about (2) conception in fulfillment of God's promise of offspring who would crush the serpent's head! Neither of these had to do with what you'll find in most English versions that talk about "pain in childbearing." Let's "true" the verse and let God's actual words come through.

S14 Ep 38Vertical submission? Something else? Ephesians 5:24

Paul tells Spirit-filled believers to teach and correct one another in Ephesians 5:19b and 20. Then, in verse 21, he tells them to submit to the teaching and correction they are receiving from one another. In verse 24a he refers to the church as it submits to the teaching and correction it receives from Christ. And in 24b he refers to the mutual ministry and mutual submission of the Christian couple.Go deeper? the book Beyond Eden, Ephesians 5:15-6:9 gives an overview of the entire passage. Discover how Paul uses a Jump, Jump, High Jump pattern as he writes out verses 15-18, 19-21 and 22-6:9.

S14 Ep 33Word patterns disprove "headship" theories. Part 4 with Zach and Bruce.

"Headship" isn't taught in the Bible and all the arguments in favor of it turn out to be weak arguments. So let's focus on what the Bible IS teaching us. At first, Zach returns to "headship" theories but Bruce redirects the discussion to the word patterns in Ephesians 5-6. Bruce takes Zach to Ephesians 6:1-4. There they discuss not only the parallels with the Ten Commandments (Honor your father and mother) but also Leviticus 19:3 (Each of you shall fear his mother and father).There is much more in Ephesians 5:15-6:9 to look at. We recommend our book Beyond Eden, Ephesians 5:15-6:9, the Great Mystery revealed: Mutually Submitting in Christ. It is available as an audiobook on Audible and as an eBook and paperback from Amazon.

Della Olson, First Lady of the Evangelical Free Church published her support for women and ministry. Ruth Kantzer, First Lady of Trinity Evangelical Divinity School heartily agreed! Dr. Joy Fleming reads from Della's book and adds her personal reminiscences.Should women lead in ministry? YES! And here is documentation that they did so across Scandinavia and North America in recent times. Dr. Joy Fleming reads from Della Olson's book, "A Woman of Her Times." The subtitle is, "Stories of women who dared to place obedience to the commands of Christ above submission to the traditions of men." She recounts the stories of women who were leaders in ministry in Scandinavia and around the world in the 1800's and 1900's even though some wanted to restrict them from ministry. Della Olson was an executive, an editor, and an author as well as mother and wife of Dr. Arnold T.

Reaching at-risk women in the Congo - Tabitha Center #316

bonus

This Bonus episode of The Eden Podcast is about Tabitha Center #316 – reaching and disciplemaking among at-risk women through vocational training based on the positive insights from Eden. Claudine Selenga and her husband Nubako Selenga founded and direct this ministry to 7,000 at-risk women in Kinshasa, DRCongo and beyond.The story: Claudine and her husband Nubako had served as the leaders of their denomination in the northwestern region of the DR Congo. They moved south to the capital city of Kinshasa as Nubako began international travel heading up a new missionary association to other countries in Africa. Meanwhile Claudine was raising their six children and was open to what her next ministry activities would be.Here is the remarkable timeline of the ministry that grew from one center in their home to multiple centers serving 7,000 at-risk women in 2024! Now located in 300 local churches they spread the Good News through Bible study and vocational training.They discovered that many of the young neighborhood women had resorted to prostitution due to their extreme poverty. Many lacked the skills for gainful employment. Most did not know the Lord or how to grow as Christians.So Claudine started a home Bible study group. Her first priority was evangelism and discipleship. And she has retained that priority in all that has developed since the start.She observed their lack of marketable skills. Being a seamstress herself, among other things, Claudine got two hand cranked sewing machines and began teaching sewing to the young women. She called the work The Tabitha Center.The young women loved the song time, the Bible lessons, the prayer time, the skills classes and more! A dozen young women started attending at first. Then 20, 25 and more started coming!They added lessons on home economics, small business management skills, cosmetology classes, restaurant management and more.The Kinshasa City Team led by Pastor Nubako Selenga ministry now includes these outreaches:Tabitha Centers (reaching at-risk women with discipleship training and vocational skills)Global Fingerprints Tabitha (an extension of Tabitha that includes literacy training)Follow Me (reaching men through vocational training)Kids Action Network (teaching children through Bible storytelling)Planting 100 new churches (growing healthy, holy churches in Kinshasa, pop. 17 million)Links:www.Tru316.com/donate (Mention that your gift is for Tabitha Center 316)https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100081143602379 (Tabitha Center Facebook Page)  The Tru316 Foundation (www.Tru316.com) is the home of The Eden Podcast with Bruce C.
