This is not true. It is recorded that Paul went to the synagogues first. He had that privilege. He, as his custom was, went to the Jew first and then to the Gentile. He would have given his life for the Jew. So great was his love for his own people (the Jews) that he could wish that his name would be blotted out of the book of life and them be saved instead (Romans 9:1-3: 10:1-3).
It is said that Paul was the most educated person on the face of the earth at that time. It is possible. He had a great standing before the Jews and Gentiles alike. It was still easy enough for him to gain entrance into the synagogues (unlike others). He was taught at the feet of Gamiliel, the best teacher of his time. He went to the best schools and had one of the best upbringings that life could ask for. He was one of the best and most learned Rabbis. People were glad to hear what he had to say. When Paul spoke people kept quiet as is evidenced in Acts 22:1,2.
It was not normal to meet in the synagogues. Paul could gain entrance into the synagogues only because his reputation preceded him. Others could not. They synagogue was exclusively for the Jews. Once a Jew became a Christian he was cast out of the synagogue and was allowed in no more. And much of the time it was thus was with Paul. When he got to the place of the resurrection, they threw him out, stoned him, persecuted him, chased him out of the city, etc. They would hear him no longer.
Early churches did not meet in the synagogues. The Jews did.
It would be unheard of for women to hold any office of any kind.
They were not permitted even to speak in public but to keep silence in the church, and be submissive to their husbands at all time. It was not permitted for them to speak. If they even had any question they were to ask their husbands at home. There were no offices for women in the church.
1 Corinthians 14:34-35 Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law. And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.
A bishop is just another name for a pastor. It defines another aspect of his office--that of oversight. Paul on his three missionary journeys started approximately 100 journeys. I believe he recommended to the church who the Lord would appoint or choose, and the church would accept that recommendation. It would still be a church decision. Voting would be seen in the action of a disciplined man in 1Cor.5ff, when it took the action of the church as a whole to put out the man who had committed incest.
Only some churches were aware of the needs of others. That would be those in which Paul could keep in close contact with and visit often. Starting approximately 100 churches he could not go back and visit them all with his restrictions on travel.
It is specifically called "a doctrine of demons.
However, this is only required of the Roman clergy of the latin rite. Other rites can marry and Ministers already married converting to the Catholic Church becoming Priest also are allowed to remain married. And the Church doesn't forbid the laity to Marry. So does it really apply? Maybe.
The point is (whether SDA or RCC, or any other religion), if a religious organization makes a decree, a religious decree whether it be to abstain from marriage, abstain from food, or abstain from anything that God has declared good, then it is evil, and a doctrine of Satan. Another example of this is when the RCC commanded all of its followers to abstain from reading the Bible. That also is a doctrine of demons. In the Dark Ages they cast John Bunyan into prison because he refused to be licensed by the Church. God gave him permission to preach not the State. He spent at least 12 years in prison simply because the government commanded him to "Abstain from preaching" (without government license)--a doctrine of demons.
There is one interpretation of the verse, but many applications.
You miss and entire important aspect some synagogues were converted entirely. but where they were cast out they would meet with the wealthiest benefactor house or some other permitable location. and again with tirade. NO support just tirade about "gospel of demons" explain yourself with scripture.
