1 | Let everthing that has breath | 1 Cor 14:34 | fifirayelle | 188413 | ||
I don't quite understand or really feel that women should not be permitted to speak in the church or be a pastor or preacher. God has called all not some to be ambassadors of Jesus Christ and to spread the Good News. Also when you look through scripture you see that there was Deborah who cleary states was a "prophtess". Now I believe that one definition of a prophet is someone who has an ear to Gods mouth and therefore is Gods' mouth piece. So if Deborah who is a prophetss according to scripture, is a mouth piece for God then why would a women not be allowed to preach the gospel in the church, in the street, in the Choir. Singing the gospel is a form of speaking Gods' word just in musical format. For me I want to be like Jeremiah, where the spirit of the Lord is like buring fire inside me and I can't sit down or shut up. Praise Him |

Ma'am, Welcome to the forum. It is not a matter of our preferences. It is a matter of the authority of Scripture. Examples in narrative never carry the same weight as explicit command of the Word. You say you want to be like Jeremiah. Even if such a thing were the design of God at this time in redemptive history, are you willing to have a life of affliction to accompany a message without a single convert? If you are going to be like Jeremiah, then the place to start, is by receiving every single word of Scripture as authoritatively from the Lord. When you adjust the Bible's message by your preferences, you reveal that that you have a great authority in your life than the Word. God ordained Jeremiah as a prophet (Jeremiah 1:5). Didn't this same Sovereign God create you and I? If we believe in the omniscient and omnipotent Providence of Scripture, are we to rail against Him for placing us in a less visible state than the prophet (Romans 9:20-21)? If we love something else more than the will of our God, it is evidence of idolatry. What would a Jeremiah say to that? In Him, Doc |
