That one is a little tougher. Most of the translations of the Scripture that have been done use "men" universally. The pronouns in the original manuscript may have been masculine, feminine, or neuter, but weren't necessarily translated that way. Most of the time when the Scriptures talk of matters of the Church it speaks of both men and women using one pronoun. So when Paul says that were set in the church Apostles, Profits, Evangelist, Pastor, and Teachers, it could mean either men or women. There are verses that on the surface or if taken out of context, could have Paul forbidding women to teach, preach or otherwise have a gift ministry, and since those seem to contradict what he spoke when he told about the gift ministries, those verses must be looked at in greater depth. | ||||||

Hello CiY127, Talk about taking verses out of context, you certainly did it with Eph 4:11. I adjure you to look at these in greater depth. Steve |

Ephesians 4 (KJV) 1I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, 2With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love; 3Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. 4There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; 5One Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all. 7But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ. 8Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men. 9(Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth? 10He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.) 11And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: 13Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: 14That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; 15But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: 16From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love. what did I take out of context? The passage is discussing the body, the Church of God of which both men and women are a part of. |

Hello CiY127, Your statement is correct, but to take it to its logical conclusion, one would have to say there were women apostles. That is not true. Also, the literal view of the Scriptures which deny certian positions to women does not disqualify them from a speaking ministry. Steve |

We will have to agree to disagree. This passage when combined with other passages like Romans 12:4-8 (genderless roles) and Romans 16 (talks about all the women in service to the church) to name just a few, seems clear that all, both men and women, can serve in gift ministries as well as many other roles within the church. :-) | ||||||
