Pastor has a wife. The wife has female aides and assistants that work with her. The pastor should minister to general congregation but any personal consultation or support should go to the female elders of the Church. This is Godly, if indeed it is a God-worshipping Church.......and not a pastor-worshipping one!

PURIFY YOUR MIND IN PRAYER.ASK HOLY SPIRIT TO HELP YOU....

@OP, I think it is best to clarify what you really mean. There are so many things in your post. But let me start with this "Paul planted, Apollo watered, but God gave the increase". It is God that gives increase, not because GO is praying for you or you have a thousand women in congregation, or how many Pauls or Apollos. So the first thing is to shift your focus to God. God will reveal things to you when you do. I will put them into categories for easy understanding.
First He will show you how to approach each woman in a holy manner that produces fruit of the spirit. Much of our relationships depend on our personality - the fruits of the spirit we walk in. For instance, when a person is full of integrity and faithfulness, it is difficult for any woman to make false allegations against him. Even if they do, it is easier to dispel it based on personal character and repute. Other women will speak out. So personal revelation and character building as God guides you is first.
Second is people. Identify people that God has given to help you for different purposes. Some cant pray much, but they may be useful to accompany you in visiting others. How do you deal with people? When a lady smiles at you, how do you respond? When you see seductive dressing, are you silent? All the other women and girls in the church are watching closely, whether you know it or not. And eventually the enemy will try to sow discord and pull people down. Are you discerning the attacks on the flock beforehand? Or being reactive? Are you discerning women with seductive spirits? Have you personally overcome seducing spirits?
Finally is policy - based on God's word, God's will. The policies and messages you preach and enforce in church will also go a long way. As you speak God's word in season, a lot of problems you are not aware of are removed. But always be clear with women about your intent. And also with the church. Transparency!
I hope this helps.

The role of a pastor is not one that can be entered into casually, requires serious discipline and maturity. Not all cases can be handled by pastor's wife and not all counseling requires the presence of the pastor's wife. There are certain issues that the pastor can't disclose to anybody but will take it to his grave just as doctors confidentiality ethics. Are there temptations? Yes, but he should not allow himself be in a situation where he will fall. Go with someone when visiting a lady, the pastor's office should have someone close by like the secretary or security guard. If you sense temptation then flee, invite your wife to help and let her know if you are lusting after anyone. I've worked as a confidential secretary in a church and I can tell you that women like pastors who are good preachers and they are the ones tempting the pastors in the name of coming for counseling.

Acehart:


I think the same way you do. Someone corrected him and received a bashing for his effort. His post is vile.

Wetin Musa no go see for church

How on earth is this even a thread and managed to get fp. Please don't come here and be disgracing Christianity and God. You could've just asked the holy spirit for help or asked a higher authority but here nawa ooh!

P.S: I'm not judging you, I'm only saying you shouldn't have posted this here, before you start going thru my wall nd start behaving like a mofo

God bless you sir. This was what I was trying to tell the Op before he/she twisted the words by saying I should ask any pastor, that women... apart from that Samaritan woman who else did such. Women are wonderful tools in God's hands, likewise they are very useful and powerful tool and can be very handy for that Old serpent. I have been there, but praise be the Lord my testimony is intact. Run from them, they will keep coming. Then you will realize that Wisdom is profitable. ..

Yes, God's word grows a church but human agents are needed to publicise the church as seen in the story of John 4. The Samaritan woman went into the city and brought all the city men to Jesus, you see how it works. Seyi360

Ask any Pastor, he will confirm to you that women have greater influence on church growth than men. seyi360

Human input in growing the church cannot be ruled out. Besides, he who plants and the one waters, are they not human agent?

@ the bolded, I never disputed that from my early post, if you have read both very well. But in the second post, I kept hammering these words : ''Wisdom is profitable to direct.'' Reason being that as a pastor there are still some issues that you only will attend to.

Women are gifted with the subtle ability to multiply a congregation by word of mouth especially. Hence, a serious Pastor must take women's department seriously.

However, in the attempt to cater for them, he may be misinterpreted, misconstrued and misrepresented. Which raises the critical question.

How can a Pastor draw the line between genuine care for his female members and flirting with them?

A spiritually mature pastor, full of God's love can't flirt with female members of his congregation. Even if he embraces them, he does so with God's love-agape.

A carnal pastor will act otherwise.

Hmmmm really?

Pastor need God na Women for church growth?

God help our ignorance.

Pastors are also human

Antichristus:


Your bible says “Be fruitful and multiply.” Aquinas’ primary precepts enjoin humans to procreate or reproduce. Paul wasn’t married because his manhood became dysfunctional. Jesus didn’t marry on account of his hypostatic union. Only in the 12th century CE were Catholic priests prevented from marrying because the Lateran Council in 1139 decided against priest getting married and passed a law which imposed celibacy on RCC priests.

How did you know that Paul's manhood became dysfunctional?

Probably in the same way that he shows genuine care for his male parishioners.

The more the pastor build the church on the women folks, the more his challenge... Biblically, Jesus doesn't built his church on the strength of a woman.
Most of them are in the church and most of them are the ones to be abused by a pastor.
It is rare for u to find a man abused by a pastor for a long time..

Reason, behind that is quite simply to me, most of them lost their reasoning, become empathetic (emotionally committed) to what a Pastor said....to equal God said.

First of all, be pure and intentional in the deepest part of your heart and resist the temptation to go beyond normal bible principles when rendering any help or services to women...pray and ask for God's grace to do your work..
