Albeit, I’ve not read the entire thread or the many pages of other threads where this has been debated. I’d rather not have my question answered than to do that!
Sis. Alvear stated she believes in women preachers, although she herself is not one. She stated people know what she believes, and she wasn’t going to get into that again.

What do you mean by spiritual authority?

While the five fold ministry preach, that isn't their only job agreed?

The debate goes on forever if we deal with sharing the testimony/herald/preaching with the office apostle, prophet, pastor, teacher, and evangelist who also preach.

Obey your spiritual leaders, and do what they tell you. Their labor is to keep guard over your souls, and they are accountable to God. Give them reason to do this with happiness and not with harsh labor pains. That would certainly not be profitable for you.

Why is she dressed like a man? Is that her wife sitting behind her?

She dressed that way to help her preach. The woman behind her might be her armor bearer?

1) VLM is not a Pastor
2) BOTT is an annual conference attended by thousands of ministers from the US and around the world
3) VLM is not assuming any type of authority over anyone at BOTT, but giving a message
4) Leave VLM alone. She has more anointing in her pinkie nail than you do as a whole.

Words have meaning, and the word you used to describe a Biblical message given by VLM is unnecessary and wrong.

Re: Do You Believe In Women Preachers?

Can someone preach only when they are in a pulpit?
That is an important question.
