1 | Should women be allowed to preach? | Galatians | wwv | 50151 | ||
Dear forum, I've been reading this discussion for a bit and their are some fine points. It would seem that men are continually loosing ground as to any kind of authoritative strength through righteousness. Doesn't it say somewhere that the family hierarchy for leadership is as follows: God the father, Jesus Christ the son, man, woman, then beast. If we consider ourselves as a Christian family shouldn't we want to follow those same guidelines? Isn't it true that men and woman are diff. emotionally. Maybe for playing the appropriate roles in Gods will for a family Well, the two reasons I like men better for preachers are 1)they have a natural 'father figure' authority (i.e. I seem to receive Fathers word more securely from a strict fathers voice), and 2) It says in 1 Tim. 2:14 "And it was not Adam who was deceived, but the woman being deceived, fell into transgression." By the way that's not a cultural thing.( I read earlier in regards to that out of date cultural thing, that we don't stone adulterers any more- well don't take this wrong but I wish we had more strict rules on adultery; less abortion, much fewer "dead beat" fathers and mothers, more societal production thru stay together families, etc., etc. I am not saying woman can't preach, I'm saying it's more appropriate scripturally if we want a blameless family and a more pure relationship to the word. Aren’t we trying to stay as pure to the word as possible. God Bless William |

Here is a scripture to support this question that I forgot to give. 1Cor.14:34-38. The law that God gave states this but v.37 really drills this home by saying IF ANY MAN THINKS HIMSELF TO BE A PROPHET, OR SPIRITUAL, LET HIM ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE THINGS THAT I WRITE UNTO YOU ARE THE COMMANDMENTS OF THE LORD. So we as belivers must admit that this is the order of God. But I hope that we don't miss the big picture which is the reason that we are all talking about this, and that is to help give an answer to the brother/sister to give to his/her friend. Questions like these are good for us because we can come together and discuss what isn't being discused in most churches and why it is written. We must study the word of God everyday and ask questions when we don't fully understand scriptures but most of all just to be honest and say I don't know or understand if we don't know or even understand. May God Bless you all. Shalom. |
