The Bible does say that women are equal to men as I have said before the Bible does not say Jesus died on the cross only for men. It says clearly "For God so loved the world he gave his one and only son that who ever believes in him shall not perish but have ever lasting life"John 3 16. Explain how this is not gender equality. In fact this is an example of un just love for he enter human race, God could have destroyed every single human in hell, but instead sent his son to die so "who ever believes in him" can live with him and enjoy eternal life. His is biblical equality.
No, the bible offers women salvation as it does men, it does not say that women are equal.
All right here is a few. In Genesis it states God created man and women in his own image. Atfer the fall God treated man and woman equally by giving both equal punishments before throwing them out. Women such as Women such as Deborah, Esther, Hannah, Huldah, Jochebed, Miriam, Noadiah, Rachel, Rebekah, Rahab, Ruth and Sarah played important roles like men throughout the Bible. Jesus also treated women with equaliy such as speaking with the samaritian women. It was extremely usual to speak to women let alone a samaritian, Jesus came for all. Also at Jesus' time women were confined to a domestic role but Jesus let them travel with him. Paul also speaks about the churches equality You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus, for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise. (NIV, Galatians 3:26-29). I hope this satisfies
