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 By the way that's not a cultural thing.( I read earlier in regards to that out of date cultural thing, that we don't stone adulterers any more- well don't take this wrong but I wish we had more strict rules on adultery; less abortion, much fewer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 |

Dear William: I prefer a man pastor, not because women are not Biblically permited. I have a hard time because so many men will not support a woman pastor. I think you have the family, and culture and abortion, deadbeat dads and adultery, kinds thrown together in one pot. Where does the call of God enter the picture? How about a husband and wife as co-pastors? That protects men from counseling women ond visa versa. We live in very difficult times and perhaps things will soon get much worse. I believe each of us should spend more time praying for each other than being so critical. How anout you? aaagape, justme |
