EQUALITY

[marksman]

If we disobey the Lord we have no authority. All we have is pseudo authority created by ourselves or the organisation we work for which in most cases, does not have the imprimatur of the Lord.

You will not find the word EQUALITY in the scriptures in any shape or form. It is an unknown concept. And yet the church has gone hell for leather to promote equality in its leadership ranks.

A classic example is the pentecostal church that has gone all out to promote women to leadership, Today the leadership of the church is touted as Pastor Joe and his wife Mary. Nowhere in the New Testament Church was an Elder's wife made an Elder.

Another example is in the Anglican Church. They now have women leaders right at the top as they promote women to be Bishops. No doubt the time will come when the Archbishop of Canterbury, their world wide leader, will be a woman. In this case, they are not serving alongside their husbands. They are governing parishes in their own right.

For me, one of the silliest things that I have seen is a woman with a dog collar on. Bad enough that men wear them.

One of the Scandinavian countries' national church, I can't remember which one, has more female leaders than men. One might say how the mighty have fallen.

The question is why have we chosen the path of no authority? Why have we chosen the path of ditching God's authority for no authority? Today too many churches depend on the charisma of its leader, not the power of God. How often do we go to a meeting and experience the power of God present? Most churches today are as dead as a dodo or are carried along on the charisma of its main leader.

I checked up on a website that advertised for pastors. There were 263 adverts. 260 of them wanted people that have charisma, a degree and experience. Three of them wanted men of prayer. Need I say any more.

God said he would not share his glory with another. On Sundays, who do you see get into the pulpit? A man or God?

A Christian man wanted advice from the Lord about which church to attend in the new town he had moved to. Sorry, said the Lord, I can't tell you as I haven't been invited to attend any of them.

How does a woman become a prophet like Anna in the NT.

Deuteronomy 10
17 For the LORD your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, mighty and awesome, who shows no partiality and accepts no bribes.

 

[Reggie Belafonte]

We are all equal before God in fact !
But we are not equal among ourselves in fact ?
Point to me just one example of anyone you know who is equal to anyone in fact.
Show me one tree that is the same equal, or a rock that is the same equal, nothing is equal, not even Communism is their equal, for their are they at the top ranks and the Slaves that are under them all in fact and not to mention all are Slaves to this world regardless, for they are trapped in their own Hellfire.

As for women priest ? their could be some good ones.
I think that the male Priest have openly failed in their duty's to Christ Jesus for sure.
But all of the Churches have failed in fact nowadays, for they do not serve Christ Jesus at all, but Socialism etc as their gods, that's clear to see.
Satan would want women for the majority of the Priest hood I am sure, It's pretty hard to come against Satan, look at all the men who failed in their duty to Christ Jesus, for they could not stand against this world, especially nowadays in fact.
Not to mention that a Woman could not deal with it, for we did have women Saints !

I have not seen a good woman as a Priest myself yet, failed totally in my eyes, just as many male Priest do. And I mean bad as bad shockingly bad ! it's painful to come across. for they are not truly serious at all ! They think it's just a Job.

Lutheran Church it is the National Church in them Nations.

One looks for a man of God in Christ Jesus for a Priest ! a fire and brimstone Preacher that serves Christ Jesus and is not of this world !
One who has Fire in his belly to challenge all who come against Christ Jesus regardless.
But that would end up rocking the boat ! Like Jesus did back in the days.

The Metro sexual is king nowadays, for they proclaim that they are a new breed that is so much advanced over their forefathers.
They have no issues with Gays for they have no foundation of their own and as for woman they would not know what one truly was.
for they care not for anyone but themselves in fact.
for they are under delusions and deceptions of this world.
a weakling a grottiest weakling.
Such as they could not of made it in the past, so as to make or build a Nation up ! in fact all they do is serve to undermine all such.

I guess you can make the bible say anything if you are determined enough

2 Corinthians 8:13, "Our desire is not that others might be relieved while you are hard pressed, but that there might be equality."

2 Corinthians 8:14, "At the present time your plenty will supply what they need, so that in turn their plenty will supply what you need. The goal is equality,"

Philippians 2:6, "Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage"

... from the NIV, the NET, the NASB, and the NRSVue translations. Even the KJV has it in 2 Corinthians 8:14.

I guess you can make the Bible say anything if you are determined enough!

Regarding women... Do you really think that a woman who has a Doctorate in Theology shouldn't teach, preach, etc?

This statement of yours... "One of the Scandinavian countries' national church, I can't remember which one, has more female leaders than men. One might say how the mighty have fallen." says it all!

Yes you can. In the Greek the word is fairness not equality. The only time it is translated equality is in regard to Jesus, never to male and female.
