Subject: Biblical - women preachers/teachers??? |
Bible Note: Hi Followinghim, Thank you for your words of encouragement. :-) I am glad I am not alone with my opinion. To me the Scriptures do not seem to be speaking against the possibility of women taking up pastoral jobs either. Nevertheless, as I notice, many people have very different views - and since this question is personally important to me in the period of discernment I am in anyway, I think I will directly turn to the Lord with this issue before my emotions make me too biased to accept if by any chance I am actually wrong. God bless you, Zsuzsi |
