5 Key Passages

7. Galatians 3:28
 28 There is neither Jew
nor Greek, there is
neither slave nor free,
there is no male and
female, for you are all
one in Christ Jesus.

8. 1 Corinthians 11:3

3 But I want you to
understand that
Christ is the head of
every man, and the
man is the head of a
woman, and God is
the head of Christ.

9. Ephesians 5:22-24
 22 Wives, submit to your own
husbands, as to the Lord. 23 For the
husband is the head of the wife
even as Christ is the head of the
church, his body, and is himself its
Savior. 24 Now as the church
submits to Christ, so also wives
should submit in everything to
their husbands.

10. 1 Timothy 2:11-12
 11 Let a woman learn
quietly with all
submissiveness. 12 I do not
permit a woman to teach or
to exercise authority over a
man; rather, she is to
remain quiet.

12. 1 Corinthians 14:34-35
 34 the women should keep
silent in the churches. For
they are not permitted to
speak, but should be in
submission, as the Law also
says. 35 If there is anything
they desire to learn, let them
ask their husbands at home.
For it is shameful for a
woman to speak in church.
