Ignorance concerning things of the spirit, so a woman pastoring means she has lost her respect for her husband or what! Please get understanding, and know what the scriptures are saying before generalizing 2 Likes |

zionmde: That there was a church in their house, doesn't mean they were pastoring the church. In those days when there were no buildings set aside as meeting places for Christians, the disciple opened their homes for their brothers and sisters to meet. That there homes were used, doesn't mean they were leaders of the church. |

Apostle Paul said 1 Corinthians 14:34 Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law. 14:35 And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church. 14:36 What? came the word of God out from you? or came it unto you only? 14:37 If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord. 14:38 But if any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant. *Note* GOD DOES NOT CHANGE! |

This op does not need to come here to deceive women not to preach because most Christians are not preaching anyway, the op as well as all those other Christians (men or women) that don't preach are set for damnation. because of your silence others will be lead astray and their blood will be on your head. Ezekiel 3:18 If I say to the wicked, ‘You shall surely die,’ and you give him no warning, nor speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way, in order to save his life, that wicked person shall die for his iniquity, but his blood I will require at your hand. 1 Like |

delishpot: The word is pastoring and not preaching! Jesus himself set the precedence. Have you asked yourself why Jesus never appointed a woman as an apostle. Among the 12, why wasn't there any woman? The apostle were the pillars of the church and there was no woman. |

The issue of Female pastors in Christendom is something that is of concern and delicate with different opinion about it. As Christians, The Bible is our constitution (permit me to use that word) and as such every Thing it says is right and must/should be practised and obeyed by us. As a Christian, I have never seen and I'm yet to see where the Bible says that women shouldn't preach, teach in the church or pastor a church. The only passage that kind of hint at that is in 1 Timothy 2:11-13 which says; "Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. But I suffer [tolerate] not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. For Adam was first formed, then Eve." What the above passage is saying is that just like in the family, the man is the head of the church and the woman should be in submission to him or them. A woman shouldn't try to exercise authority over the man or try to contend for authority with him. That doesn't mean that women shouldn't preach or teach in the church or pastor a church. When JESUS gave the great commission in Matthew 28:19-20; " Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen. " HE wasn't only referring to HIS disciples but to Christians in general (which women are a part of). So the commandment to preach, teach and indoctrinate where also commanded to the women as well. But what the Bible in my first quoted passage is saying is that women should be submissive to the man or men in the church because they are the head. Woman shouldn't compete for leadership positions with them except given to them. Let's take a look at what the bible in 1Corinthians chapter 14:34-35 says; "Let your women keep silent in the churches, for they are not permitted to speak but they are to be submissive to, as the law also says. And if they want to learn something, let them ask their own husbands at home; for it is shameful for a woman to speak in the church." Now take a look at the above Bible passage, we see the Bible saying that women should be quiet and shouldn't speak in church, does that mean that the right of speech or expression of one's thought as a woman in the church is denied? if YES, That means all Christians have sinned because women speak in church both in the biblical times and now. But of course, the answer is NO, because that passage isn't saying that, rather it saying that women should give respect and be submissive to the man as the head of the Church even as CHRIST is the head of the man and overall head of the church. The issue of female pastors wasn't mentioned in the Bible to tell whether it is right or wrong, but what the Bible says is that the women should be in submission to the man or men and respect them as the head of the church. They shouldn't compete for leadership positions or contend for authority with the men in the church but that doesn't mean she can't be a teacher, preacher, pastor or hold a key leadership position in the church but that can only be done if; 1.) The church (which includes the men) decides to give that position to her after seeing that she has what it takes to be there or hold such position. 2.) If she is called and ordained by GOD to do it. Besides there were lots of women in the Bible that held key positions of leadership and teachers in the bible e.g Miriam, Priscilla, Deborah etc 3 Likes 2 Shares |

teamsynergy: You're very funny. She told you she is called by God and you quickly agreed that it's God that called her. Many demons are seeking expression through some men you call great men of God today. I know a prophet in my town. Whenever he is on the mountain ministering to people and it starts raining, the rain would not fall on the mountain but falling heavily on the surrounding land. The same man said he is the comforter that Jesus said he will send to the earth. He means he is the Holy Spirit. Is that one also called by God? Radarada |

So Christians don't actually practice what their bible preaches and they accuse Islam of suppressing the rights of women. It is those set of people that will cry on nairaland when they hear that Saudi Arabia gave a particular right to their women. This teaches me not to judge a belief through its practicers but through its scriptures. Perhaps people do things to malign with the current 'civilization' thereby trading it with what their religion preaches. In Islam, the women were to learn in silence. This is not trying to suppress their rights but to prevent some adversities as God as given rights to all human being. Moreover, Islam enjoins the act of taking care of women as they are seen as the weaker sex |

VictorRomanov: There was one woman close to Jesus. The church is hiding that fact. Mary Magdalene. The church does not like to link Jesus with any woman. Even his mother is not written much of. Not even his brothers. Their history is not feel important for the Roman Catholic who want to keep the focus on Jesus and on men who were around him. There are tons of books among which those compiled as the Bible were gotten. So don't think you have all the inside works of God. For all we know, Jesus once had an all women crew but you wouldn't hear about it because the Roman heads of church decided not to include it in the Bible. Did you know that a lot of Christian books were burned by the church back in the day? Books they believe would shake the foundation of the church as it is known. So don't talk as if you know it all. The Bible is a book compiled by men from lots of writings by many who were inspired. You do not have to whole lists of books written by people inspired by the holly spirit. That you do not know doesn't mean it did not happen. 1 Like 1 Share |

He had deep relationship with a few women that he cried when their brother died. Mary and martha. It's only wise for his apostles to be men since the men have more freedom in his time 2 Likes |

VictorRomanov: Don't use instances. Show me where Jesus said women are not worthy to preach. You still did not show me any. Jesus could not have called women because of the culture of his people towards women. Men were more able to move around and travel while women were considered properties. Unless he married the woman, her family would not have accepted that she follows men (she is not married to any of them) around in the name of following Jesus who was considered a radical in the society. However, Jesus was NEVER known to discourage women from being around him. Infact, he protected the lowest of the lows in the society even adulterous ones. The ones people would not want around them talkless of associating with. He did not ask Mary to leave when Martha was cooking. He taught her and the disciples. He did not say this is for the men. So, show me where Jesus said women are not fit to preach. That evil practice started after the death of Christ. Christ never said anything about women teaching not teaching. 2 Likes |
