First of all, it sounds like he's mocking his own congregation at several points. Secondly, WOMEN go to that church? Third, WHAT?! Fourth, he must think that God wrote the Bible in KJV English to support that argument. Read the Greek buddy, you're completely wrong about what the Bible says about women. Fifth, WHAT?! Sixth, you realize you're basically putting yourself in the place of God, Jack Schaap? The ego on that one.
Actually guys like Jack Schaap in this case are not cherry picking what the New Testament says about how women and men should interact. Particularly that women are forbidden to teach or exercise authority over men. Although Jack is a more upfront about this stuff than many Evangelical and Catholic clergy who hold the same views.
Also I was paraphrasing from a modern translation (Holman Standard Christian Bible to be precise) not the KJV. Might I add as well why the hell do I need to read what these verses mean in Greek. Is it not the job of the translators to as accurately as possible translate what the text says.
