1 | Should women be allowed to preach? | Galatians | srbaegon | 50117 | ||
Hello justme Let me answer your questions individually. "When does culture and scripture conflict?" -- They will conflict when the culture is ungodly. "Why not have women cover their head?" -- We practice this. "Why allow women to speak in church today?" -- We don't in the meetings of the church. "Why not stone adulter's?" -- Because there is no NT command. I know the egalitarian stance. It requires a self-contradictory hermeneutic (i.e. a select passage is deemed cultural without deference to the immediate context or theme of the book as a whole). Galatians 3:28 is a perfect example. The context speaks of our position in Christ as fellow-offspring and has nothing to do with equating the sexes. Steve P.S. Srbaegon is nothing profound.

Daer Srbaegon: I appreciate your explanations. Y respect your views, you come accross as a gentle soul. I respect that you practice what you say is your views. What you say and do are not in conflict. That I admire. I also practice what I believe. So we ar both children of The King and with that we shall have fellowship. Neither of our views are unorthodox. I am very close friends with Amish, and Menonite wher we live. We do not agre on many things but Jesus is our Lord and with that we focus on what we do agree. I am sure we can also. agape justme |

3 | Should women be allowed to preach? | Galatians | BELIKEJESUS | 50134 | ||
I've read the statements about women being able or allowed to preach, and I see that when discussing the topic it is very important to stay on the subject and with in scripture. The bible clearly gives an answer to this question but because the times have changed some people will say the the word of God is or parts of it have become out dated. To say that is really to say that God has become out dated. God is his word and his word is him; the two are the same. From Adam all the way down to Jesus himself (and Paul seen this and expressed it to the church) God has never addressed himself on the female agenda. God always addressed himself as he, because man is the representation of God. God sent prophets with the divine message to preach, but he never sent a prophetess to preach. He sent a prophetess to foretell a future event, but he has never sent a prophetess to come before the people and breakdown the scriptures, analyze the scriptures and to charge, rebuke and chastise. Because the women can not have usurp (dominate) authority over the man. That's what the bible teaches and I believe that. I also believe that there are women preacher who has been anointed by God to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ. I know that it sounds contridictive but it isn't. When Jesus entered in to Jerusalem the people took branches of palm trees, and went to meet him saying Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel that comes in the name of the Lord. Then the Pharisees came to him to command him to stop them, but Jesus said if they hold there peace the rocks would cry out (and praise him). God will not share his glory with anyone and if his creation (we the people whom he created) refuse to praise him who can talk, than God will get his glory from his creation that can't talk (the rocks). What I'm saying is that men have submitted themselves to women and have refused the word of God (the bible) because they don't understand Gods reasoning for stating this (1Tim 2:11-12) in scripture. Remember that it wasn't just a culture difference but Gods will. Paul was not writing to the Jews. Paul was not called to the Jews. Paul was writing to the gentiles (non-Jews) teaching them how the house of God ought to be run. Man did not make this up, God ordained it and we preach what God said but for some reason the church refuses to preach it because it offends. News Flash *** everything that is not in obedience to God is offended by the gospel, so if people who are saints or sinners are going to be offended by the church preaching the gospel; let it be because the whole gospel was preached and not a water down version. But I've noticed that for a long time generally across the board that there isn't alot of men in the churches but are in the streets. Women and children have filled the churches for the longest, but sense the men have been absent form the church God has called and anointed women to minister his word. Like the rocks God will use his creatures no matter who they are to do his will. ** Note** Look at Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages o unrighteousness; but was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man's voice forbad the madness of the prophet. It is a shame for men who have been made to rule over the women to submit to that which he has been given power over. Like Balaam who was put to shame by the ass and the people who would have been put to shame by the rocks had they not glorified Jesus. So should the men of the church be put to shame for not being men of God in the church. But God will continue to use women in the ministry because God has ordained it by the lack of response of the men to the ministry by God. |

Hello BELIKEJESUS I agree that men have abdicated their responsibilities in the local church (and the home and other places as well). This is why women run churches and are in the pastorate. However, I would not go so for to say that God has called, anointed, and ordained these women as preachers. I think they took it upon themselves because men would not. Steve |

Well you have it pretty much summed up but I think that God has called some of them and then some of them just appointed themselves. The reason I say God called, anointed, and ordained is because you have to be anointed by God to work miracles wither laying hands on the sick or to preach the gospel and many souls are converted. Ordained means to appoint and whom God has called has ordained and whom he ordained the anoints (give power or authority to accomplish the work). That's what I've noticed through out the bible and the people of God who are in ministry. In the 16 chapter of Mark it says that God was working with them confirming his word with signs following. God will confirm his word that comes out to the minister’s mouth if he/she is called of God speaking the words of God. But anyway, you're right on target. Stay in the word. Peace. | ||||||
