WOMEN PASTORS

[yomotalking]

You are a Catholic, Fizz?

My nickname for you Fiosh.....

Well you're a lovely one!!

And yes, I wish for other churches could agree on Women serving.

"Fizz"........I love it! Thanks! I've always wanted a nickname.

Yes, I am a Catholic.

Love you,

Fizz

Pleasure.

Mark.

The Church is NOT a Pagan body.

Careful what you say...........

I've no idea what Ecce- whatever is, but I suppose it means joy, like the woprd Esctasy...?

Mark, let's not "rabbit trail" this discussion off into an issue for which you have already composed a thread.

[Ovedya]

Eclesia?

Bless you....need a tissue?

I think by reading earlier in this discussion I argued extensively against the idae of woman "pastorship" in the churches (Individual assemblies) and the church (The corporate universal Body and Bride of Christ).

As far as the saints with whom I meet locally, no, we do not "support" female pastorship. We do however encourage all saints to prophesy according to 1 Cor. 14.

I'm sure there are at least a dozen others that I missed, but this should suffice. One thread has 378 responses to it, and goes quite in depth.

My apologies to you, Mark, for stating that I had extensivly argued against female pastorship in this thread. In fact I had argued against the subject in one of the threads I listed on the first page (above).

This is one of those subjects that tends to pop up every now and again, and then get's buried until someone starts a new thread.

"Stay the course"

Exactly what I encouraged earlier.

FIOSH QUOTE:Simple fact is not all of the law applies to today.

Do you pick and choose what does apply?

It does apply. Only those seeking a "liberal-bent" have have said, "this in, this out".

Then answer the adjacent question I had to it:

Do you sacrifice animals unto the Lord? It too is in the law.

Are we under the law? NO. The second covenant is written under grace, but there is "law" to it.

You are free to do as you wish but remember:

But I say unto you,

That every idle word that men shall speak,

they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.

For by thy words thou shalt be justified,

and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.

MT 12:36-37

Are you a Jew?

Flosh, Generally I hit"quote" then reply. But sometimes I highlite quote, and then reply. is this not your quote?

Not that I'm aware of.

In this day and age with so many lost and the return of Jesus so iminit in our hearts, We need all the help we can get in defence of the gospel, and if women like Joyce Myers help reach 100.000.000's, I don't beleive the Lord would object.

Hello,

I am needing clarification on women pastors allowing to serve in the Shephard's capacity.

I feel that there is a calling there with some of these, but I really do not know how to make the determination of pastorial ministy.

Thank you, Gentlesound

It's fine for our Fellow Christians to tell you what the Bible "says" GS, but it's important that once you've read all the scriptures of God's Word , that you realize that YOU as well, can be influential in leading any to Christ just as easily as I. It is important that you get clarification from the Bible on what another female can "teach" because I've only found that it states that "A woman can not preach behind the "Pulpit." There can be several other variables there. I guess what I'm saying here is that I believe that it is more important to understand the "why's" and the "where's" of what God's intentions are when we try to understand the "Hand of God." Agree?

Blessings

It might benefit this discussion to first look up the subject using Worthy's search feature. This issue has been extensively discussed in other threads.

Amen.

It might be of interest that inhistime (a.k.a Cheryl Shatz from strivetoenter.com) has debated Matt Slick (from CARM) over this matter since we took up the issue of women pastors with her here on Worthy Boards. You can link to it here:

I'm actually kind of surprised she put this up on her site. I sympathize with Matt in his exasperation.
