All opinions are not equal. Some are a very great deal more robust, sophisticated and well supported in logic and argument than other

Proverbs 31:10-31The Wife of Noble CharacterA wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies.Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value.She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life.She selects wool and flax and works with eager hands.She is like the merchant ships, bringing her food from afar.She gets up while it is still night; she provides food for her family and portions for her female servants.She considers a field and buys it; out of her earnings she plants a vineyard.She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks.She sees that her trading is profitable, and her lamp does not go out at night.In her hand she holds the distaff and grasps the spindle with her fingers.She opens her arms to the poor and extends her hands to the needy.When it snows, she has no fear for her household; for all of them are clothed in scarlet.She makes coverings for her bed; she is clothed in fine linen and purple.Her husband is respected at the city gate, where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.She makes linen garments and sells them, and supplies the merchants with sashes.She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue.She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness.Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her:“Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all.”Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.Honor her for all that her hands have done, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.Probably ranks as one of the first female entrepreneurs, move over Kelly Hoppen, this is the woman I hope to be

That's nice Need to read Proverbs at some point lol

Yes, I'd recommend it. Its full of wise advice.

Thanks Is there anywhere I can find an interpretation/guide thingy to the Bible too? Not the most theologically advanced when it comes to Abrahamic religions, so I like to have an explanation alongside me too

Yes, its really good to have some commentary to go alongside the Bible because it often explains what was happening historically in the country at that time too and that insight explains a lot.



Hopefully other Christians can recommend good resources too.

But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

They entered into a covenant to seek the Lord, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and soul; and everyone who would not seek the Lord, the God of Israel, was to be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman. (2 Chronicles 15:12-13)

how very tolerant...

...I want you to know that God’s salvation has been sent to the Gentiles, and they will listen!

(Acts 28:28)

Not true anymore, mate! That became outdated in 0-30AD!
