Paul tells us to study rightly dividing the word. You say you will keep believing the plain words of Paul, well Paul said God is not a respector of persons. But your translation makes God a respector of persons, making the women a lesser part of Gods creation. Paul further lays out that the women is subject to her husband, not a part of the so called 5 fold ministry. You have ask for scripture where women were used as pastor with authority, I ask you for scripture that tells us that the pastor has the authority that is demanded by most churches today.

Godsdrummer, I don't think those who oppose women pastors are making women a "lower person." There is still social order, though equality (see
1 Cor 11 for that). You believe this, as you even added that women are subject to their husband, which I agree with.
