Subject: Biblical basis for office of Deaconess? |
Bible Note: I find now where in Christ's New Testament where a woman is authorized to be a Preacher, Elder (Paster) or a deacon, Christ said, 1 Timothy 2:12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man ( Which means Publicly because we have examples of teaching unlearned men in private), but to be in silence and also Revelation 22:18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: 19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book. Which most are guilty of. Ignorance of God's Word is no excuse. |
