Re: End Time Army of Women Preachers Psalms 68:11

Now you are craw-fishing saying "Well, sometimes this word can be applied to the church". Well, make up your mind Prax - does the word "preach" apply to the church-members or not?
I have no idea what "craw-fishing" means. I made up my mind. Most of the time it seems to be about proclaiming in a public venue the gospel.
So that's my point then...can a woman preach the gospel to lost souls since she is not doing it IN church?
I have said over & over that women can & should witness to the lost. And, I have even gone so far as to say that if you want to call that "preaching" per-se- then I can even see that .
Good. Then we are in agreement once again! You believe women can preach their hearts out as long as it's not at a church meeting.
But, the whole tone of this thread has been what modern "women-preachers" do today (so I'm told). That is, getting up IN A CHURCH-SETTING, taking a text from the Bible & expositing to men in the church. When she does that - or is allowed to do that - she (as well as the man who allowed it) is completely out of order viz I Timothy 2.11-14.
Yes, I was aware that was your position
So, I am again asking you if you accept Paul's prohibitions regarding women teaching men in I Timothy 2.11-14? So far, you (& virtually every one else in your camp) are only chasing rabbit trails which lead away from the plainness of the passage .
I haven't decided if Paul's Prohibition was a cultural precedent or an Eternal injunction
Praxeas: And YOU have defined it in a way that does not match what Jesus did. The Apostles were not quoting Acts 2:38 when they preached. The NT was not even written yet.
Duh - Ya' think not ?
And YOU have defined "preaching" in such a way that limits its semantic range - all to cram in your typical preference. So, here, let's try this question again - since you completely ignored it
I am asking how in the world someone can "preach" to the lost without ever referencing the Scriptures ??
I already answered that. I said do you think they all quoted Peter in Acts 2:38 when Acts was not even written yet?
The very word "PREACH" does not inheritly have anything to do with scriptures unless one is explicitly PREACHING the Scriptures.
Sometimes they "Preached" Jesus...do you think those Preachers in Acts all opened up their NT and preached about Jesus from the gospel of Mark?
