The Roles Of Men And Women In A Christian Family Flashcards
What are traditional views on men and women in Christianity
Some christians interpret the bible to mean that women are men’s helpers and so men are the leaders in a relationship
Some Christians see women to be weaker than men as in the Genesis story Eve gave in to temptation before Adam
Christians who see women in this way consider them to have roles in the home and caring for children. However they see women’s role equal to that of a man
What do some Christians believe about equality between men and women
The role of a man or woman in a family depends on their interpretation of what the bible is teaching
Pope John Paul (II) said men and women had equal responsibility in family and society
The Catholic Church sees that there are equal rights and opportunities for men and women but also values the role of woman in the home as much as other careers
Many people think that men should have an equal role in family life
bible quotes about equality of men and women
“ there is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female for you are all one in Christ”
“I will make a helper suitable for him”
“Treat them with respect as the weaker partner”
