God has never spoken directly to a woman.Never!

Reference:
As long as God can raise up stones, shows that he does not partake in the discrimination and ridiculous laws and sentiments of men. God is in a real hurry to save mankind. I seriously doubt if He will be picky as to who does His Works.

He sent Jesus... why didn't He send a woman?

I have no time now to into details, cos am on my way to church.

But if you take a deeper look, from the scripture you quoted, you will see that Paul only expressed his own human views

There are positions that Apostle Paul took because of Jewish religion. A close example was when he had Timothy, a greek christian, circumscised for acceptance among the Jews even though he himself said that circumscision avails nothing before God. Judaism forbids woman from ministering in the sanctuary hence many early Christians find it hard to accept a woman ministering in the sanctuary. In fact Paul himself wrote that Man and woman are equal. However, because of peace he said woman should not minister. Remember we minister to God in the spirit and not the flesh. God is a spirit and we relate with him with our spirit and in the spirit there is no male nor female.

Ministering in spirit is different from ministering to congregation abeg? Don't get it twisted

What I'm always emotional about, is that they will see some Christian saying it right for Woman to preach on alter. What a confused religion.

Judges 4:4-5 KJV
And Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lapidoth, she judged Israel at that time.

And she dwelt under the palm tree of Deborah between Ramah and Beth-el in mount Ephraim: and the children of Israel came up to her for judgment.


Galatians 3:27-28 KJV
For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.

-Peace.

How idiotic to let the rules purportedly set in about 2000 years ago be the guiding principle in this day and age? We have many denominations in Christianity because people started picking holes in the book of coercion called Bible. The Bible is a collection of history, stories, fantasy, proverbs, erotica, letters, predictions and revelation. Any bias formed can be confirmed in the Bible. How do you change the mindset of someone who had been indoctrinated and programmed with the Bible since childhood? Therein lies the problem. The same way it is difficult to convince Muslims, Buddhists, etc otherwise. A religion that claims to be the truth and only truth yet finds it difficult to unite on a common ground is a fraud. The division in Christianity is too embarrassing to take it serious. Catholics vs Protestants vs Baptists vs Methodist vs Pentecostal vs Evangelical vs Lutheran vs Adventist...and on and on. There are differences that gave rise to the multiple denominations. Too many freaking doctrines.

But Deborah was a woman... She was one of the judges in Israel...They should have said haba!! Madam u are a woman, u should be quite..

Women where the first that proclaimed the resurrection of Jesus while their male counterparts were sleeping or hiding...
That temple veil that slits in half when Jesus gave up the ghost got lots significance...including what we are talking about on this thread...

My brother, no where in Israel can a woman lead a congregation it's a sacriledge. The Bible says so. Stop rearranging God's order!

It is clearly stated in Corinthians that it is a shame for women to speak in church. Whatever questions they have to ask, they should ask their husbands at home...but these days, their husbands will even be seated in church listening to their bitter sermons and nodding their heads to show they are proud of their wives. If Daddy freeze start now, Una go say he is anti-christ..

If the man on the pulpit sees a verse that does not go down well with him, he reads the entire Bible in search of what looks like a counter verse to justify his disobedience of the word of "God"..or go outside the testament if need be. When it comes to matters of tithes, they wee say "Old testament or New testament, all na testament" grin grin

Truth is, the verses of the Bible are selectively followed.

I think this is the opinion of Paul and the time he lived in(traditionally women where deemed inferior by men at that time) see I believe the bible was inspired by God but it was not written by God so men wrote what they believe in their time just like some of our pastors say what they believe now (doesn't mean the apostles intend to deceive don't. know about pastors of now) my point:Deborah became a judge over all the tribes of Israel given anointing and authority by God we would he change over time and say women are not allowed to lead or rule or preach in the church or anywhere else ...God does not change nor lie for he OS not a man that he should be sorry


So by your analysis of "writing what they believe in their time", should we then allow the practice of homosexuality, because, you know, the writers condemning it in the Bible were writing what they believed in their time, when homosexuality was unthinkable?

Jesus never sent his disciples to God he sent them to people. Jesus didn't come to the world for God he came because of people! I hope that clears the point?

You couldn't have said it better.
We Christian's selectively choose and act on what pleases us based on the Bible verse.
Some people believe the old testament is bygone but ask them to show you where Christian's are commanded to pay tithe in new testament , they will not show you.

Exactly because blacks were being enslaved angry
You worship and praise a man that did nothing to save your ancestors.
You believe he died for your sins while your ancestors were being used servants and human toys.
Funny
All of Jesus disciples were white, no black, no Asian.

Do your research....Jesus and all jews of old weren't white, they all had your color.

Jah bless brother ...
the Bible is seriously racist as well ....we are made to believe Jesus was white , no reference to Africans in the Bible the only cities mentioned were Ethiopia and Egypt that was painted black by the Bible , and we all know how God was against the Egyptians... we all know the Egyptians were looked down on by God's people,such that anybody who married them had gone astray !!!!
All the books were written by white men .. meaning the blacks lack the knowledge to be used by God as at that time !
I still wonder how people can believe in a religion and love a book that encourages things that even the society today regard as inhumane and wrong like Racism ,Sexism , child marriages and Slavery !!

Greatzeus:
Most of us still don't understand what great sacrifice Jesus made on our behalf,and what he achieved,when we do,we will then truly be as gods.
In Christianity,there is no tribe,no race,no gender discrimination before God. Jesus didn't pay more price for males than females and vice versa. A woman can old any position in church just as men do,as long as she is qualified.
In other words, you are saying that Apostle Paul's teaching is wrong since he said that women should remain silent in churches, right?
