Bible Note: Dear Devon, Thank you for clarifying. I'd tend to agree with you. I know of one pastor who allows women to teach in specific venues if he has approved the content of their preaching and he is present. I do not find this to be a contradiction of Scripture. Nor do I find it a contradiction for a woman to teach women and children in something other than the congregational worship service. I would think there might be an issue, based on these verses, for a woman lead any part of the worship service. Thanks again, Devon. In Him, Doc |
