Guest Thess Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 I think that the bigger issue is, has your heart been circumcised? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not all that ambiguous. That does not mean that a woman cannot preach or teach, but only that they are not to be in positions of authority over men. No pastors, bishops, elders, and so on.

If any man or wo-man chooses to have a wo-man as their pastor, though I think it unbiblical, and that man or wo-man benefits from that pastoring, then praise God. For even what one may intend to be for evil God uses for good for those that believe on Jesus as Lord God and personal Savior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think God is sexist, times have changed God is the same, we can work in a woman the same way he can work in a man. Naturally men do the job with more ease and less emotion.

No it is not biblical. God has ordained only men to serve in positions of authority in the Church. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Epheseus the women controlled society as oracles and pythonesses. They became part of the church to keep their authority and so Paul is here stripping them of authority. Hence why he doesn’t say this to other churches but even commend women leaders: “I commend unto you Phebe our sister, which is a servant (diakonos, minister) of the church which is at Cenchrea” (Romans 16:1) “Please give my greetings to our brothers and sisters at Laodicea, and to Nympha and the church that meets in her house.” (Colossians 4:15) “also to Apphia our sister and Archippus our fellow soldier--and to the church that meets in your home.” (Philmon 1:2). It is well known the leader and teach is mentioned first. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise we may teach younger children, and younger women in matters of family and homemaking. We are at all times to be subject to our own husbands. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
