ONWARDBABA:
the church weddings an argument broke out that its not biblical and spiritual to be conducted by female pastors but only male pastors.

please let the theologians and bible scholars bring their intellectual knowledge into this

God bless you all

This has nothing to do with equity, is pragmatic, where in the bible have you read about a woman presiding over a wedding or officiating the wedding rights of a couple, a woman is not allowed to climb onto the sepulchre, there's order in heaven so as on earth, learn you religion well

In the first place who authorized her to be a pastor or to preach
Read : 1 Timothy 2:12....I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet.

And
1 Corinthians 14:34-35

34 Women[a] should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the law says. 35 If they want to inquire about something, they should ask their own husbands at home; for it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in the church.[b]

Let the founder of the Church or business center officiate the weddings there. It doesn't concern us. Had I the power, I would have banned church wedding in Nigeria.

We are more interested in Senate and Presidency drama.

The first thing first. Its not OK for woman to Pastor at the first place say less joining people together in church. I still wonder the type of bible the new generation churches are using to allow that and who is their references and Bible character example.

It is wrong for a woman to officiate a Church wedding, since it is wrong for a woman to pastor a Church.

How can someone who's supposed to be silent and in subjection assume such authority?

Read from the Bible:

1Timothy 2:11-12; 1Corinthians 14:33-35

Note:
This isn't mainstream gender inequality, male chauvinism, or even misogyny. It is the decree of the INFALLIBLE Word of God.

Take it or leave it, God have ordered it that way!

Because there was no female among d 12 named disciples does not mean there were no female disciples. Jesus had d 12, then d 70, den d 500.
Martha and Mary were disciples of Jesus. And many others. All dis female pastor talk is just because of wrong doctrines in churches. If you are a christian, you can be a pastor whether male or female.
In d bible days there was Esther, she 'pastored' her people and led them to pray for their victory from Wicked Haman. And there was Deborah. The wife of Lapidoth. She led israel to war. A fervent woman of valour and strenght.

Bet u dont know about Katherine kulman. Or Joyce meyers, or juanita bynum and many others whom God has used and still uses to bless lives in our world today

You pple should better stop judging or denying yourself of blessings because a woman is the pastor. God is bigger than your myopic thinking and will only use pple who are available for his use, whether they are female or male.

Whether male or female, pastor Officiating over a wedding is mere tradition of man.
No verse in the Bible assigned them the responsibility, it's rather parents' sole responsibility to bless the union of their children.

A very big YES.

Joel 2:28 says

28 “And it shall come to pass afterward
That I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh;
Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,

Abeg, where there wan prophesy? Every Church that's hindering the move of the Holy Spirit should get ready to be question by God.

In Christendom, no separation of gender in whom God uses. E.g Deborah was a judge, a prophetess and also a wife

In fact the wedding Jesus attended with his mother emphasized more on the miracle that took place and not the officiating ministers
