The Importance of Women in the New Testament

Exucius is a unique word in the New Testament, and it means something like domineering. Regardless of how we understand that word, Paul can't mean here that Christian women shouldn't teach in general. So whatever this means for women not to dominate or in the church setting, this cannot mean that women cannot contribute in a significant way. And in fact, if women are not contributing in asignificant way to the kingdom of God and local churches, we are furthering the work of the enemy.
