1 | "women keep silent in the churches" | 1 Cor 14:34 | kalos | 58826 | ||
Proof that women preached, taught? Scribe: "Acts 21:9-11 And the same man had four daughters, virgins, which did prophesy." "Proof that women were accepted in the new testament church as both teachers and ministers"? 'Luke does not reveal the nature of their prophesy. They may have had an ongoing prophetic ministry, or prophesied only once. Since women are not to be preachers or teachers in the church (1 Cor 14:34-36; 1 Tim 2:11,12), they probably ministered to individuals.' (Source of quote available upon emailed request.) Grace to you, kalos |

2 | "women keep silent in the churches" | 1 Cor 14:34 | prayon | 58830 | ||
From Scribes comment: "it seems that there is just as much here to say a man cannot speak either. For twice the pronoun "He" is told to keep silent in the church and only once it says a woman should keep silent." ...Your comments? In the Corithian church the men were seated at the front and the women were way in the back. There were no sound systems like they have today, so the apostle would speak, and the women would yell up to their husbands, "What did he say?" This was disrupting the meeting, so Paul instructed for the men to relay the information to the women at home. Galatians 3:28 makes it clear that "in Christ" there is neither male nor female. So this must mean then that some of the people "in Christ" are not allowed to teach others about Him when God tells us specifically in Joel 2:28 that in the end times He "will pour out His Spirit on ALL flesh; your sons and your daughters will prophecy.....Even on the male and female slaves in those days, will I pour out my spirit". So I must assume that some of those that God pours out His spirit on must remain quiet? Luke 2:36 speaks of a prophetess named Anna. One role of a prophet is to speak into the lives of other believers. It is doubtful that the apostle Paul would be saying to silence Anna, or other female believers who had something to contribute. (A previous contribution to the forum.) If it truly was fact that women were not supposed to preach and teach I wonder how many of our brothers and sisters would still be lost in sin.......God can and will use all people in all places.

3 | "women keep silent in the churches" | 1 Cor 14:34 | Cyclist | 58839 | ||
prayon, With my hands lifted up and my mouth filled with praise, with a heart of thanksgiving, I will bless the LORD! Praise the LORD! Just a note to say that I think your post is GREAT! The woman that led me to Jesus, my spiritual mother, and, I am a male, was silent in the church, ACCEPT, when it came to teachings in Sunday school class that swayed from the Word of GOD, and, when she was asked to stand in for our pastor to preach. What a wonderful woman God made. I thank Him for her. She would not allow me to be misled by man's wisdom, or, by teachings that swayed from God's Word. She spoke up! Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |
