Divided opinion on the topic of this book has caused controversy in Baptist history and life. Most Baptist individuals and churches have strongly opposed women deacons. Some Baptist associations have even disfellowshipped churches that have approved women deacons. And women in general have been suppressed by many recent actions of the Southern Baptist Convention, thereby affecting women deacons. However, thousands of Baptist churches include women in their deacon bodies and find that they make invaluable contributions. The book presents arguments on both sides of the topic, but lands squarely in support of women deacons.

Download A Case for Female Deacons Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The subject of "women in ministry" has attracted considerable attention in the past half-century of Western Christianity. While much of the debate has centered around ordination and female pastors, few works have focused specifically on female deacons. A Case for Female Deacons challenges reformed and evangelical Christians to accept the legitimacy of female deacons without getting distracted by the more controversial debate about female pastors. The heart of the book contains a thorough exegesis of key passages and a fascinating look at what the church believed about deacons in centuries past. As a graduate thesis, readers will find a cohesive, logical argument supported by a wealth of scholarly research. As a contemporary work in theology, many complementarians and traditionalists will be challenged to revise their position. The end result is a compelling biblical, theological, and historical case for female deacons.

“Should women be admitted to the church office of deacon? This issue continues to spark lively debate in many reformed and evangelical circles. In this book, Jamin Hübner contributes to the debate by examining the key New Testament evidence, interacting with prominent biblical scholars with logical acuity and exegetical skill, and concluding that Scripture supports the notion of women deacons. This conclusion is then corroborated by a survey of leading figures and movements from church history. This book is a 'must read' for anyone wanting a thorough knowledge of the central issues in this discussion.”– Dr. Mark A. House (Ph.D., Fuller Theological Seminary), Professor of Greek Exegesis, New Geneva Theological Seminary, Adjunct Professor of Greek, Reformed Theological Seminary, Virtual Campus “Jamin Hübner exposited Romans 1 at our yearly Bible conference a couple of years ago, and we were blessed by his reverent and careful handling of the Word of God. I am pleased to see him continue that same approach with regard to the question of female deacons. I heartily recommend 'A Case for Female Deacons' to all Christians who desire a biblically healthy and fully functioning local church.” – Don Fowler (M.A., Westminster Theological Seminary, PA, M.S.M., Multnomah Seminary), Pastor, Mariner's Reformed Baptist Church “I am personally much delighted and encouraged by Professor Hübner's fine work on one of the most important issues before the evangelical church today…Many have drawn negative conclusions from the biblical text without making clear the basis of their conclusions; Hübner challenges them at every point. I think this is bound to lead to significant progress as we explore this topic—if you are convinced this is not a role for women, you will need to answer his calls for precise proof. This can only be for the benefit of all of us.”– Dr. D. Clair Davis (Th.D., Georg-August Universität), Professor and Chaplain, Redeemer Seminary, TX

This volume contains twelve essays—five translated from Italian, three translated from French, and four in their original English—that answer the questions about the history and possible future of women deacons.

Download The Pastoral Epistles Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
This is a thorough, full- scale English commentary on the Greek text of 1 and 2 Timothy and Titus. While author George W. Knight gives careful attention to the comments of previous interpreters of the text, both ancient and modern, his emphasis is on exegesis of the Greek text itself and on the flow of the argument in each of these three epistles. Besides providing a detailed look at the meanings and interrelationships of the Greek words as they appear in each context, Knight's commentary includes an introduction that treats at length the question of authorship (he argues for Pauline authorship and proposes, on the basis of stylistic features, that Luke might have been the amanuensis for the Pastoral Epistles), the historical background of these letters, and the personalities and circumstances of the recipients. Knight also provides two special excursuses: the first gathers together the information in the Pastorals and elsewhere in the New Testament on early church offices and leaders; the other excursus examines the motivations for conduct in Titus 2:1-10 with a view to their applicability to present-day situations.
