Text: Genesis 2:19-24. “…This at last is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man”, (verse 23). By Adam naming Eve, “woman” it indicated the leadership role on part of Adam. Remember Adam had named all other animals as a sign of[…]
Text: Genesis 2:10-18. “…It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him,” (verse 18). Again this shows a difference in roles in the original creation.

Text: Acts 2:14-21. “…and your sons and your daughters shall prophecy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams; even on my male servants and female servants in those days I will pour out my Spirit, and they shall prophecy,” (verse 17-18). If God can pour His spirit on both male and female,[…]
Text: Genesis 1:26-31. “So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them,” (verse 27).

Text: 1 Corinthians 15: 12-20. “But in fact, Christ has been raised from the dead. He is the first of a great harvest of all who have died.” (1 Corinthians 15:20-LASB).
