How did the book of Romans get from Corinth to the Roman church?
The epistle to the Romans was sent from Corinth to the church at Rome by way of Phoebe, probably a businesswoman, to whom the letter was entrusted. A woman therefore carried and delivered this tremendous epistle, and the chapter commends women who helped much in the ministry.
Les explains that this tremendous epistle of Romans was sent from Corinth to the Roman church by way of this lady known as Phoebe, probably a business lady, but he entrusted this to a woman. All the way through the chapter he commends over and over the women who helped him much in the ministry. So, as Les teaches, don’t ever say there’s not a place for the woman in the church.
