3 As for Saul, he made havock of the church, entering into every house, and haling men and women committed them to prison.
4 Therefore they (women included) that were scattered abroad went every where preaching the word.
It's clear that women were in the church and were included in the 'they' mentioned in the scriptures above.

There is NO debate in this passage I certainly believed these scattered saints BOTH men and women preached to everyone they met about the salvation experience but NOTHING in this verse implies they publicly preached in a assembly to men. I have said many times every saint should be a preacher on the job in the neighborhood. No one is fussing about that. BUT where did a woman preach PUBLICLY in an assembly to MEN that is the question. You and I agree on this passage. NOTE the APOSTLES(which were THE Fivefold ministry PREACHERS) stayed at Jerusalem. Thank God for saints who preach everywhere they go men and WOMEN.
