a mere housewife
Not your cup of tea
In another thread, this question was asked and Rev. Winzer answered (thusly )
The references being cited as regards ceremonial headship being extended to women are Lydia's household baptism and 1 Cor 7:13,14. My question is twofold:
1. how the husband in such a case can be referred to as 'holy' or 'sanctified' without baptism,
and
2. why this ability to speak of 'holiness' or sanctity apart from baptism (merely on the basis of relation to a believer) does not apply to the children mentioned in the same context?
Thank you.
