That scripture was simply talking about being physically delivered from the risk and challenge of child bearing. Remember that the due to Eve’s transgression, the curse of a painful child bearing process was slammed on women.
Very interesting topic! May be Paul was referring to Genesis 3:16 and there the word pain is same with the painful toil of the man in the next verse 17 and i think God does not curse Adam or Eve, rather He curse the Snake and the ground. Pain or itsabon in 3:16 is never related with labor pain, rather it is related with getting pregnant. So this pain is actually the anxiety that a woman face right from wishing to get pregnant until the final days of her child. As she is separated from the creator God and chose her own ways, she will face all kinds of trouble in bringing up her child. Without God we all struggle, it is not that God is increasing our pain but it is because of our choices. Thanks to Jesus that now we are reconciled with the God and in home (genesis 3:16) and in the field (Genesis 3:17) even though we face itsabon, we are saved and have overcome the consequences of sin!
God knew at times of Adam and Eve, that he would use a woman to give birth to our Lord Jesus Christ and therefor woman have been and will be saved "through Childbearing" in OT and NT ! At the End, it states that through Childbearing and giving birth to Jesus Christ, woman has the same status as man, being saved through our Lord Jesus Christ! Her Sin as Eve in OT was bringing death, but through Childbearing giving live to our Lord, she was blessed by the Lord! Remember, The Bible you can read like a clock! Old Testament is from Midnight to 11:59 am and NT is from 12 to Midnight! See that, at the beginning God created Heaven and Earth, at the end of the thousand years God will create a new heaven on earth! Lucifer, one of the most powerful Angels was send to earth to reign creation but fallen away from God in his pride and deceived Eva, in Paradise! You can compare the 1000 years with the Garden Eden according Revelation, but at the End, Satan will be loosen to deceive once more the people before he is finally send to lake of fire! Again, OT with Garden Eden, NT with 1000 Years Millennium! Again a mirror between OT and NT! Thereafter you see the time of Law being OT! Then it stopped when Jesus preached and died at the Cross for our Sins and NT was born, the time of Grace! Again the Mirror, OT closed so to say (I am not saying it is not valid anymore, I am talking about Timescale) and the new time, the time of Grace is startet which would be at 12 midday! So, Time of Grace will end when Jesus comes in the Clouds what is seen as the Rapture ending that time with Jesus Christ again! Thereafter, after the second Coming, the Millennium starts and this reflects "Eden" again, so after the 1000 years, Satan deceives, as at the Beginning and then God will judge and create a new World and new Heaven, thus being the perfect creation! As you see, if you see it as a clock counting Morning time and afternoon time and splits the happenings, you will be seeing a lot of so called preachings differently, whereas I not say you wrong, opposite, it is very good what you do and say! Preaching about Jesus is getting Oil in your Lamp and that will get you to see the Lord, at your End! Bless you all!
