Bible Question:
1Tim 2 states that a woman should not pray or prophecy, what is the behind this? I know culture is part of it. Then look at 1 Cor: 11 states: when a woman prophecyies she should do so with her head covered. There are contradictions, one says don't and the other says, you can. Which is it? |
Bible Answer: Like Paul, I come knowing nothing more then Jesus Christ crucified. Yet I know as a women I have been called to Ministry. I teach only when the Holy Spirit prompts me too. And as for prophecyies again only when the Holy Spirit uses me to say something to encourage, uplift or instruct. I do not have an answer using scripture only what the Holy Spirit is doing now in my life. Hope this helps. Oh, and if you read revaltions it talks more on people and prophecing. |
