Why Is It That When A Pastor Starts A Church, His Wife Automatically Becomes A.. by ThatWriterBoy(op): 7:59pm On Mar 05, 2022
Hello everyone!
So I was wondering: why is it that when a man starts a church, his wife automatically becomes a pastor in the church?

I mean, didn't the Bible clearly state that women should not be pastors? If you doubt me, let me show you in 1 Timothy 2:11-15;

"Women should learn quietly and submissively. I do not let women teach men or have authority over them. Let them listen quietly. For (DON'T FORGET THAT "FOR" MEANS BECAUSE. IN OTHER WORDS, PAUL WAS EXPLAINING WHY WOMEN SHOULD NOT BE PASTORS) God made Adam first, and afterward he made Eve. And it was not Adam who was deceived by Satan. The woman was deceived, and sin was the result. But women will be saved through childbearing, assuming they continue to live in faith, love, holiness, and modesty.
1 Timothy 2:11‭-‬15 NLT (I added the one in brackets for emphasis)


And this is not a Nigerian thing alone. Yes we have Faith Oyedepo, Peace Ibiyeomie, Modele Fatoyinbo etc, but we also have Paula White, Joyce Meyer and there's this black woman that preaches. I think her name is Priscilla Shierer or something.

When one pastor was explaining why, he said that it's because the Bible says there is neither male nor female in Christ (you can find this in Galatians 3 or 4), but is it not the same Paul that wrote Galatians that wrote the verse I placed above? I mean, what could be more clearer than what that passage said?

Please if you have a good explanation, I'm open to listen.

It happens mostly in Africa because majority of Africans are abusers of everything. It happens only in Pentecostal churches because majority of Pentecostal Churches survive on misinterpretations of the Bible. The Bible does not permit women to be pastors.

Christianity is not about what people generally approved today rather it's what is practiced in the Bible by the group known as Christians back in the first century! smiley

So that the business will be moved to greater heights.......
1st Son will be heading the youths section as pastor
2nd son will head the financial department
Daughter will head the singing ministry
And an outsider will head the cleaning department to make sure the church is always clean and neat grin grin and pastor's children will not accord him or her any respect
