I earlier mentioned that the RecV footnotes contradict each other. One says that the psalmist crushing his enemy's skull and bathing his feet in his enemy's blood is a picture of Christ defeating Satan, while another footnote says that the Christian sentiment is to forgive your enemy and therefore the psalmist's violent antagonism is merely vain concepts.

How is that representing the ministry? Can we critique the ministry and represent it?

Maybe we can represent the ministry in a special edition of "Affirmation & Critique".

One article: "Women's roles: 1915 versus 2015". Ask what roles Jessie Penn- Lewis, Peace Wang, Dora Yu, Ruth Lee and ME Barber might have in the modern 'church life'.

And another on contradictory RecV footnotes in the Psalms, and a comparison of WL's reception of the Psalms compared to the reception in the NT.

I think we might begin to give an contemporary representation of the ministry today.

Here is a recent notice.

There will be a sisters' blending conference for the Northeast churches*on Saturday, April 21, from 9am to 6pm at the Jamaica Estates hall of the church in NYC. In April of last year, over 450 sisters attended. In November there was another such gathering and over 380 attended. A light breakfast will be provided beginning at 8:15am, as well as lunch and dinner. Child care will also be provided but* sisters who are bringing children should expect to participate in the child care service on a rotating basis in coordination with the local sisters. May the Lord bless all the churches in the Northeast and the Mid-Atlantic through this gathering.*

Would ME Barber be allowed as a speaker at this blending conference?
