Q&A #149 - Consequences of not agreeing with the Bible, including 1 Co 11?

by Robert Nguyen Cramer

This BibleTexts website administrator has very much enjoyed questions and insights that have been emailed to him ever since this site was launched in September of 1996. On this page I share with BibleTexts browsers a few of the questions, insights, and responses, so that we all can further learn from and with each other.

What happens when you don't agree with the Bible? I am having a hard time believing that the man is the head of the woman and woman was made for man (1 Corinthians 11). I believe the man and woman are equal and share in a partnership together. Neither can live without the other. Do you go to hell if you don't agree with the Bible? I
hope you can answer this one. I am upset.
