Bible Question: My wife and I was discussing should women be pastors. I told her no she said yes. I referred her to 1 Tim. 3:2 where Paul gave qualifications of a bishop which is a overseer or pastor.Are there any scriptures that support women pastors. |
Bible Answer: I will answer this question with a question. What if a woman was in a remote village in Afghanistan. Let's assume she is just being a normal christian and witnessing to the lost. Over a period of time many women and children are saved under her ministry. Then in order to obey the Word and assemble in fellowship they gather and there are no men yet that have joined them. They are the church, they are a local assembly and she is operating in the office of shepherd. So when there is a need for a woman to obey God in faith she must regardless of what denominations say she should do. |
