He holds license to this day and has a church having remarried and moved out of state.

So I am not seeing how that fits with honest honorable women pastoring at all. Please do tell...

It's not about women being, or not being, honest and honorable, it's about God's instructions. His instructions says....

1Ti 2:11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. 12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.

If a pastorate puts a woman in authority over a man, it's not to be.

Time for a rewrite?

Seekerman you are obviously not reading anyone's posts but your own and are so anxious to try to make a point rather than actually learn something that I am starting to believe that you must be very young and/or immature. Actually I am beyond believing that you are genuine as you have addressed not a word that anyone has said.

It is not so much time for a re-write as for clear understanding of the scripute you just quoted which would make Paul a bumbling mealy mouthed idiot if it actually asserts what you seem to think it does since he had just gone on before about a woman covering her head... when?... oh now you remember! When she prays or prophecies...Yeah, that little thing that is so hard to do while one is being... silent???

Does your church allow women Sunday School teachers?

What my church does and doesn't allow has absolutely nothing to do with the bible teaching that a bishop MUST be a male.

By the way, I don't have a church. Nobody but Jesus Christ has a church.

Nice dodge, my friend, but I see through your smoke screen.

If the church that you attend allows women teachers, it is in violation of the Word.

So, for you to continue to try and make your case against women bishops is hypocritical and disingenuous.
