For my anti women preacher friends....

BROTHER ALVEAR:

I'm sorry to see that you are not able to be here to respond to my
post (I hope that you are well). I doubt that you, as a man of God
(if you are called into the Ministry, or otherwise), would knowingly
allow anyone to rip any pages out of the Bible that would not agree
with your "personal" opinion(s), nor would YOU do so. I believe, also,
that you understand the difference between preaching and teaching.

I remember how my (then future) wife once asked me, regarding the
"hair" question. I asked her how she wanted me to respond: whether
of my personal opinion, or what the scripture taught. She replied that
she wanted to know the scriptures, so I replied in kind. Although she
did become upset with my answer (I also asked her to pray about it),
she went home, prayed about it, and the Lord did answer her. She
obeyed the Lord, and she has been blessed for her obedience. Listen,
she was NOT obedient to me, but to the Lord!

Now This, Brother Alvear:
When a woman speaks in the Church, or asks another man (including
the Ministry!) guidance or advice, she dishonors her head (that is, her
husband): for she would be placing ANOTHER MAN in her husband's
stead. She is declaring and/or making public her husbands ignorance
(to her, that is). She is in effect playing the role of a harlot! Not to be
contentious: search the scriptures and see if this is not so.

"But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom,
neither the churches of God."

Im sorry if I was not clear in my question... you said in your previous post

"and believe me you would not want my husband here"

I was asking why we or the poster you were speaking to would not want your husband here?

[Sister Alvear]

Sorry, first because he hates forums...second because he "might" be very plain in his answer since he is a foreigner...He is more pro women preachers than I really am...lol....now you would have to know us to understand that answer....

I really didn't want to turn this into a debate. But I'm plain and I'm an American.
The no woman preacher issue is also plain. If your husband gets upset that he can't prove women leading and teaching men, I understand. Jesus had no women apostles. If women would of meant to be foundational leadership you would of had one in the 12.

Love you Sister Alvear, you focus on
Getting better. We are keeping you in prayer.

He had rather not debate...He is just not the debating type...no harm meant....He believes in them and he feels the Bible backs him up....Not maybe to the point where he believes a woman knocks over a man to rule but he believes God uses women in ministry....and I did not put this thread to debate....only to tease my friends....

Thanks for the many prayers of many of you....we may not agree on every little point but our purpose is to win souls...Love all you folks....

*Any man that allows "women preachers" is in direct rebellion to crystal-clear God-breathed Scripture...not to mention the women who actually do this.

*How on earth anyone w. a Bible in their hands could actually say the Scriptures support "women preachers" must be reading from 2 Jude ?

*No worries, we'll be here to correct the outright biblical error(s) & gross misinformation being pedaled as long as God will grant us the breath to do so .

*Was that "plain" enough?

What about widows or unmarried women?

You know the answer.

"The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh
holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good
things; That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love
their husbands, to love their children, To be discreet, chaste, keepers at
home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be
not blasphemed."

Widows in the Lord would most likely already know those things; while the
unmarried might be new to the things of God. Today there are women in
the Church that have not married, but nevertheless need to be taught the
ways of a good and faithful wife and mother.

Of course, it is incumbent upon a man to be able to teach HIS OWN wife at
home...or at the very least LEARN TOGETHER with his wife and children.

NOW THIS:
Any man (not excluding the Ministry) who will be the head (authority)
over another man's wife has a spirit of adultery exalting itself "...against
the knowledge of God...".

Thousands and thousands of people on the mission fields all over the world would have never heard the gospel had it not been for a woman missionary....not so much now but in years gone by....
