1st Timothy 2:15. “Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.” CHILDBEARING. There are many thoughts that come to mind when I think of a child being born. But I still wonder how, in that process, God says a woman is saved. The roles of genders are clearly defined; even their bodies have different forms So we stay within the boundaries, God to the first man and woman gave. The man is to labor to provide for the physical needs – The woman through childbearing provides maintenance of the race. God will save them both when they obey and to Him heed - And both will be saved as a result of His redeeming grace.
Another thought I have is that a woman’s significance is enhanced
By a role that men are totally unable to fulfill. The motherhood that sets her apart wasn’t designed by an act of chance. But God made her to be able to meet the nurturing role. The care for her family she gives, and unique skills she has Sets her apart from her husband to a certain extent. He can stand and watch as she gives a new life, and then does The things that are needed are that their two roles are blent
Perhaps the most important thought about childbearing is this – Through the womb of a virgin woman, Christ has come. She was uniquely formed that when in a way that was only His Jesus, through the Holy Spirit, came to earth in Mary’s womb. Without the deliberate act of a man, God came in human flesh – And salvation was provided for all through the childbearing Of a woman whose physical uniqueness, God chose to use and bless – And salvation was provided for all through Christ’s first appearing.
The trials of childbearing and the lessons in that way learned Make a woman’s role able to be saved from some lesser role. Women and men are equal, but our uniqueness must not be spurned: She provides a special love, a special service, and a trust. He provides the things that are needed to sustain family life. In her childbearing, she learns qualities of life that are a must – And even in that difficult time, God wants to keep her safe.
“I must confess, Father, that some of these things evade my full understanding. But there does seem to be a number of opinions about this event that are beyond my comprehension. May these thoughts I have written not in any way contradict what Thy mind is and what is to be conveyed to others. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen."
