Here we go again, *sigh*
.. the animal did NOT preach
the gospel to anyone, PERIOD.
In fact I wonder why you'd call it preaching, to begin with? A simple statement of any topic, to another person, is now called preaching? LOL!
I guess I'm preaching now, then.
I can't imagine WHY people read that into that story.
An animal whom spoke only ONCE and for purposes NOT even GOD-related is now a preacher? Wow that doesn't say much for some of our annointed men preaching from any given JESUSname church, now does it? IF they can be replaced with a donkey?
Now, THAT
is "twisted".
Moreover, what WOMAN would want to be compared to a donkey?
YET many women DO use that reference themselves! Go figure.

The point is simply that God continues to do whatever He wants, and we have a biblical record of Him using women for His plan, His purpose, and His glory.

Naturally.
EVERYONE knows that GOD is sovreign already, HE IS GOD after all;
and that saved women, as well as men & children, are to tell other lost folks, the good news of JESUS is plain common-sense., but I think the
topic here is about pastoring. I really don't want to get into that, its
settled; for ME, anyway.

Obviously "usurping authority" needs to interpreted differently, or you can't avoid that conflict

Obviously, so does "
preaching"., and no matter how many definitions are given, it often IS intepreted to support whatever any particular person is trying to prove.
So what else is new?
oops I've been writing this but hadn't yet submitted NOW I read what H.O. said
about preachin, lol *similar minds at times*
